DC-Link | CCS1 (SAE J1772 Combo) → CCS2 (IEC 62196-2) Dual-Mode Adapter — 250kW DC · 19.2kW AC


The ChargePapa DC-Link (CPCADA0003) is the only adapter a CCS2-equipped European-spec EV needs in North America. A single unit handles both DC fast charging via CCS1 Combo guns at up to 250kW / 250A, and AC Level 2 charging via SAE J1772 (Type 1) plugs at up to 19.2kW — with automatic mode switching and built-in thermal control. Whether you're on a highway corridor using Electrify America or EVgo, or charging overnight at home, the DC-Link covers both scenarios with one connection.

📍 Real-World Scenarios

The European EV on a US Road Trip

You've imported a BMW iX, Audi e-tron, or Volkswagen ID.4 with a CCS2 port into North America. Every public fast charger — Electrify America, EVgo, Blink — uses CCS1. The DC-Link CPCADA0003 plugs into the CCS1 gun and connects to your CCS2 port, delivering up to 250kW DC fast charging. The same adapter handles your home J1772 wallbox for overnight AC charging at up to 19.2kW. One adapter, every charger.

The Fleet Manager with Mixed European Inventory

Managing a fleet of European-spec EVs in North America means every vehicle needs CCS1 compatibility. The DC-Link's dual-mode auto-switching covers both depot AC charging overnight and highway DC fast charging during operations — one adapter SKU for the entire fleet.

The Hotel or Destination Charger User

Most hotel and destination chargers in North America use J1772 Level 2 plugs. The DC-Link's AC mode accepts J1772 at up to 80A / 19.2kW — significantly higher than standard 32A or 48A adapters — so CCS2 vehicles can take full advantage of high-output destination chargers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the CPCADA0003 compatible with my BMW iX, Audi e-tron, or Volkswagen ID.4?

A: Yes. The ChargePapa DC-Link CPCADA0003 is fully compatible with all vehicles equipped with a CCS2 (IEC 62196-2 Combo 2) port, including the BMW iX, Audi e-tron, Volkswagen ID.4, Porsche Taycan, Mercedes-Benz EQS, Polestar 2, and Volvo EX40, among others. It supports up to 250A at 1000V DC for fast charging, and up to 80A / 19.2kW at 250V AC for Level 2 charging.

Q: What is the maximum charging speed with the ChargePapa DC-Link?

A: The ChargePapa DC-Link CPCADA0003 supports up to 250A at 1000V DC, delivering a maximum of 250kW in DC fast charging mode. In AC Level 2 mode, it supports up to 80A at 250V AC, delivering up to 19.2kW. Actual charging speed depends on your vehicle's onboard charger capacity and the station's rated output.

Q: How does the DC-Link compare to a standard 32A or 48A CCS1-to-CCS2 adapter?

A: Compared to standard 32A or 48A AC-only CCS1-to-CCS2 adapters, the ChargePapa DC-Link CPCADA0003 delivers up to 80A AC (19.2kW) — 67% to 150% more current capacity — and adds full DC fast charging support at up to 250kW via the same unit. It also includes automatic mode switching between SAE J1772 AC and CCS1 DC, eliminating the need to carry two separate adapters.

Q: Is the CPCADA0003 compatible with Tesla vehicles?

A: No. The ChargePapa DC-Link CPCADA0003 is not compatible with any Tesla vehicle. All Tesla vehicles sold in North America use the NACS (SAE J3400) connector standard, which is physically and electrically incompatible with the CCS2 (IEC 62196-2 Combo 2) output of this adapter. For Tesla-compatible charging solutions, please refer to ChargePapa's Tesla-Link series.

Q: Has the CPCADA0003 passed FCC and safety certification testing?

A: The ChargePapa DC-Link CPCADA0003 has been tested to Federal Communications Commission (FCC) electromagnetic compatibility requirements and meets IP54 ingress protection certification per IEC 60529. It also conforms to IEC 62196-2 (International Electrotechnical Commission) connector standards and SAE J1772 (Society of Automotive Engineers) AC charging specifications.

Q: What is the SKU, and what connector standards does the DC-Link cover?

A: The SKU is CPCADA0003. The ChargePapa DC-Link covers CCS1 (SAE J1772 Combo) on the charger input side, and CCS2 (IEC 62196-2 Combo 2) on the vehicle output side. It has been manufactured to ChargePapa's specifications and passed IP54 ingress protection and IEC 62196-2 connector standard testing.

⚠️ Critical Usage Note

This adapter is for CCS2-port vehicles only. Do not use with Tesla NACS (SAE J3400), CHAdeMO, or GB/T port vehicles.

Do not force the connector. If resistance is felt during insertion, stop and verify alignment before proceeding.

Do not use if the adapter housing, pins, or cable show signs of damage, burning, or deformation.

Always ensure the mechanical lock has engaged before initiating a DC fast charging session. Never pull the adapter free while a session is active.
