Adapters and compatibility
Compare NACS, CCS1, CCS2, J1772, Type 2, GB/T and CHAdeMO directions. Start with the charger side and vehicle side, then check AC/DC mode, current, voltage and the approved model revision.

Use this page to move from a connector question to a documented product family, compatibility check or sourcing conversation. Connector shape alone does not prove charging compatibility. Confirm the exact model, charger, vehicle, mode and destination market.
Compare NACS, CCS1, CCS2, J1772, Type 2, GB/T and CHAdeMO directions. Start with the charger side and vehicle side, then check AC/DC mode, current, voltage and the approved model revision.
Choose connector ends, phase, current, cable length, jacket material and handling requirements for Type 2 cables, charging gun cable assemblies and extension cables.
Match the supply circuit, phase, adjustable current, vehicle connector and cable length. A portable EVSE is a complete charging product with control and protection, not a passive cable.
For a useful quote, send connector direction, AC or DC mode, current or power, cable length, target market, quantity, packaging and branding requirements.
| Question | Answer to verify | Next page |
|---|---|---|
| What connector do I need? | Identify the charger-side connector and vehicle-side inlet. Type 1/J1772 and Type 2 are AC families; CCS adds DC contacts; NACS and GB/T are separate standards. | Connector guide |
| Is a cable or adapter enough? | A detachable cable, extension cable, adapter and portable EVSE perform different roles. Check communication, locking, thermal and market requirements. | Compare product roles |
| Can you confirm a vehicle? | Only after the vehicle model/year, charging network or equipment, direction, mode and region are recorded against the exact product revision. | Compatibility matrix |
Southwind publishes model-specific information where records are available. Ratings, certification scope, MOQ, availability, lead time and vehicle compatibility are confirmed per model and market. Request the current datasheet and sample-validation requirements before a production order.
