Full Electric Volvo XC40 Recharge, Charging in the Rain plus Changing Cable Adapters (120v to 240v)

The Fully Electric Volvo XC40 Recharge includes a Charging Cable that has two adapters, one for a 120v outlet (think like your standard in-home plug) and one for a faster charging 240v outlet. I also address the question of if you can plug in an electric car in the rain (Spoiler, you can)

THANK YOU! Couldn't find this info elsewhere! AND your mother called, she said stopping playing with electricity in the RAIN!

Can the 120 plug take advantage of a 20A circuit?

Hello, How did you find this cable adapter. My T8 XC60 Recharge came with a 110v and 220V 6 amp plug.

Hi Codi, is the 240v plug included with charging cable? Thank you

can I use Volvo Level 1-2 EV Charger, for Toyota rav4 prime?

[PeteArizona]

If thats all the outlet you need what is the advantage of adding a “ charger” box ?

[PeterGMcDermott]

Looks like yours came with a NEMA 14-50P?

So if I have one of these plugs in my garage do I even need to buy one of the charge stations that’s affiliated with Volvo?

Just realized my XC60 Recharge uses a lower AMP set-up… Hence the lower AMP 240v plug. Will use an adapter.

When you are done . Do you leave it plugged in to the 220. Thanks 👍🏻

Does the NEMA 14-50 adapter come with the vehicle, or do you have to order it separately? Thank you in advance.

can you use the cable with an extension cord ? seems like what's included is a little short for those of use that have to bring juice from inside the house...
