PlugStream 7S socketed EV charger

PlugStream 7S Overview

Key Features

Socketed flexibility

Choose the cable that suits the vehicle on the day. PlugStream 7S is ideal when more than one driver may use the charger or when you want a neater finish between sessions.

Start, stop, and schedule charging

Set charging windows around your routine, your tariff, or your vehicle readiness so the charger works in the background instead of demanding daily attention.

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

Keep commissioning and daily operation reliable with multiple connectivity options designed for domestic installs and harder-to-reach parking areas alike.

Solar aware charging

Pair PlugStream 7S with the right metering setup to align charging with on-site solar generation and help households use more of their own energy first.

OCPP 2.0.1 ready

PlugStream 7S stays back-office agnostic, making it ready for PlugStream Cloud or another OCPP-compliant software platform as your needs evolve.

Installer friendly hardware

Built-in PEN protection and integral 6mA DC leakage detection simplify installation while keeping the finished system compliant and tidy.

Over-the-air software updates

Receive ongoing improvements without replacing hardware, helping the product stay current with new features and future grid services.

Automated load management

Balance available power between the charger and the wider property to avoid unnecessary upgrades and make better use of the supply you already have.

Charging driven by your tariff

PlugStream works with supported smart tariffs so drivers can take advantage of lower-cost off-peak windows while still waking up ready to drive.

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.
