EV Charger Cable Protectors – What Are They and Why Are They Essential?
EV charger cable protectors are specifically designed to shield charging cables from potential damage while also reducing the risk of trips and falls. Typically made from durable rubber, these cable ramps are ideal for use on driveways, pavements, and roads—anywhere EV charging cables might be exposed to foot or vehicle traffic.
At The Ramp People, we offer a wide range of EV cable protectors, including high-quality rubber protectors that are perfect for both residential and commercial use. Our protectors help keep your cables safe and your environment hazard-free.
What Size are EV Charging Cables?
EV charging cables come in a variety of sizes depending on the charger type and manufacturer. For this reason, we always recommend checking your cable’s diameter before purchasing a protector.
As a general guide:
Cable diameter: Typically ranges between 12mm and 21mm
Cable length: Usually between 5 metres and 9 metres
Choosing a properly sized cable protector ensures a snug, secure fit and maximum protection.
