Four specs define a cable: connector type, current in amps, power in kilowatts and length. A 16 A single-phase cable will give about 3.5 kW and a 32 A three-phase one up to 22 kW, but in practice it will charge at whatever the weaker link — the car or the station — allows. Choetech and Reach cables come in 5 and 7 metre lengths; the longer one is handier in public car parks, where you cannot know in advance which side the socket will be on.
