    Is the cable heavy to pull ? Are they thicker than a garden hose pipe ?

     

    The 7kW Type 2 5m cables are heavier than a hose but aren’t worse to tidy up than a standard garden hose, except you shouldn’t get wet.

    Public cables are a different beast altogether.  The higher the charge rate, the heavier the cooling needs to be, which leads to quite a bulky and heavy cable.  Not impossible to pull around and some companies have a cable arm which bears a lot of the weight.  As suggested, next time you’re in the same place as  one, pick up the connector, see how easy it is to move around.
