AVL DiTEST practiCABLE
With the AVL DiTEST practiCABLE, you can automatically test Mode 2 (IC-CPD) and Mode 3 charging cables for electric vehicles within a few minutes. Specially developed for workshop use, the standalone case solution enables complete safety and functional testing in accordance with current standards and guidelines (e.g. DGUV V3, EN 50699, EN 62752) without the need for additional test equipment – simply plug in, start, done.
The integrated, comprehensive charging cable database with predefined test plans ensures that the right test plan is available for every cable - tailored to the respective cable specification, normative requirements and possible manufacturer specifications. You can quickly and easily transfer the recorded measurement data to a smartphone or PC via Bluetooth or USB and generate clear test reports from it, for seamless documentation and proof of compliance.
This makes practiCABLE the ideal solution for workshops, inspection organizations and service providers who want to expand their
service portfolio to include standards-compliant testing of charging cables.
