Buyer Confidence

Why teams feel confident specifying PlugStream 22T

Confidence comes from more than power output. PlugStream combines warranty clarity, British support, installer-ready hardware, and compliance-led design so the site decision is easier to defend.

Warranty and support cover

3-year warranty as standard, extended to 5 years with installer activation, backed by UK-based support routes.

Designed for practical installation

Installer-friendly hardware, clear commissioning paths, and a pole-mount option available separately where the site needs it.

Made and supported in Britain

PlugStream is proudly designed, manufactured, and supported in the UK for faster communication and clearer accountability.

Choice of charging platform

OCPP 1.6J, OCPP 2.0.1 and OCPP 2.1 support gives you options for PlugStream Cloud or a compatible third-party management platform.

Built-in features

Smarter charging features built around real journeys

PlugStream features help connect the hardware, driver experience and support journey, from product identity to charger readiness and delayed-session resilience.

PlugStream Passport

A smarter journey from delivery to support - setup, support and traceability for every PlugStream charger.

Charger Readiness

Charger Readiness helps drivers, installers and support teams understand whether a charger is ready for the next charging window.

Learn about Charger Readiness

Vehicle Wake Assist

Vehicle Wake Assist helps reduce missed charging windows by checking for sleeping-vehicle behaviour and retrying the session path where supported.

PlugStream 22T Overview

Key Features

PlugStream 22T carries across the PlugStream 22S feature set while replacing the socket with an integrated 7m Type 2 cable. MID metering, optional 4G, and V2G or V2L project options are available within the same PlugStream 22 platform.

Up to 22kW AC charging

Designed for higher-demand sites, PlugStream 22T supports faster charging where three-phase power is available while keeping its 7m cable permanently ready at the bay.

Domestic and commercial flexibility

Suitable for three-phase homes, private communal parking, fleets, and business premises where tethered convenience and a scalable site architecture are required.

Start, stop, and schedule charging

Use the PlugStream app to automate charging around energy pricing, operating hours, and vehicle availability on site.

Connected through Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Ethernet, or optional 4G

Multiple connectivity paths make the charger easier to commission and manage over time.

Three OCPP versions. More platform choice.

OCPP 1.6J, OCPP 2.0.1 and OCPP 2.1 support keeps your choice of management platform open. Connect to PlugStream Cloud or a compatible third-party platform, with the required workflows checked for your project.

Installer friendly commercial hardware

Built-in safety measures and practical cable routing help installers deploy single or multi-unit sites efficiently.

V2G and V2L options

Specify bidirectional charging options for projects that need vehicle-to-grid or vehicle-to-load capability. Operation depends on a compatible vehicle, site electrical design, and the selected project configuration.

Over-the-air software updates

Stay current with future operational improvements without replacing charge point hardware in the field.

Automated load management

Distribute available site power across multiple chargers to make use of the existing supply and support staged expansion.

MID meter interface

Connect a compatible MID meter for auditable energy measurement, operational reporting, and project-specific billing requirements.

Smart Tariff Support

Charging with smart tariffs

PlugStream is designed to work with smart tariff-led charging so drivers can shift charging into lower-cost windows instead of plugging in at the same time every day.

If you use compatible Octopus Energy tariffs, you can build your charging routine around real household energy prices, intelligent scheduling, and off-peak periods to make everyday EV charging easier to manage.

Check Octopus compatibility

Open charging platform

Choose the platform behind your charger.

PlugStream Firmware supports OCPP 1.6J, OCPP 2.0.1 and OCPP 2.1. That gives you more choice when connecting a new charger, expanding an estate or planning a move to another management platform.

OCPP 1.6J

Connect to established platforms

Support for existing charging estates using the JSON over WebSocket version of OCPP 1.6.

OCPP 2.0.1

Manage more of the charger

A richer Device Model for configuration and monitoring, with expanded transaction and security capabilities.

OCPP 2.1

Plan for energy integration

A protocol foundation for newer charging and energy services as compatible platforms and equipment adopt them.

Each connection uses one agreed protocol version. Compatibility depends on the installed firmware, platform configuration and required features. OCPP 2.1 support alone does not enable bidirectional charging or every optional feature; these also depend on the vehicle, hardware and site.
