What Type of Charging Cable Does the BYD Atto 3 Use?

• Type 2 to Type 2 cable – Required for home wall boxes and most public untethered charging points.

• Three-phase (up to 22kW) – Ideal for public charging stations or homes with a three-phase supply.

• Single-phase (up to 7.4kW) – Compatible with standard UK domestic home chargers.

• 3-pin to Type 2 cable – Handy for slow emergency charging from a standard UK plug.

For DC fast charging (CCS port), cables are already attached to rapid chargers— so there's no need to bring your own.

What Length Charging Cable Should I Choose?

Your parking setup determines the best cable length for convenience and safety.

• 5m Cable – Ideal for driveways or garages with nearby charge points.

• 7m Cable – Offers more reach for slightly offset parking positions.
