Face Plate Colours

Choose a face plate finish for PlugStream 7T

PlugStream 7T can be specified with the same PlugStream 7 face plate palette, so the charger can suit the property without changing the platform, controls, or installer workflow.

Product images here show the tethered PlugStream 7T front with the revised cover render, so the integrated-cable model can be reviewed in each finish. The same colour palette remains available across PlugStream 7S and PlugStream 7T face plates.

PlugStream 7T Overview

Key Features

PlugStream 7T is the everyday-home variant of the PlugStream 7 family. The tethered lead keeps every charging session simple while the same software-defined platform gives households access to smart tariff control, solar-aware charging, and future software improvements.

Integrated 7m tethered cable

The fixed Type 2 cable keeps the charger ready for quick daily use, helping drivers start charging faster and keep the bay consistently prepared.

Smart routines without the hassle

Use the PlugStream app to schedule charging, monitor sessions, and line up energy usage with cheaper windows instead of relying on manual daily changes.

Connected when it matters

Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Ethernet, and optional 4G provide commissioning resilience and dependable remote access for both homeowners and installers.

Solar and household load awareness

Coordinate charging with on-site generation and available household capacity so the charger fits into the wider energy system instead of fighting it.

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 enclosure

Rear and base entry options, built-in safety features, and a clean commissioning workflow help installers deliver efficient, repeatable installs.

Always improving software

Over-the-air updates keep the charger current as PlugStream continues to develop app features, tariff integrations, and service capabilities.

Automatic load management

Control charging demand intelligently so the home supply is used efficiently, especially where other electric loads are already part of the property.

Built for routine charging habits

PlugStream 7T is designed around predictable daily charging, making it a strong fit for driveway installs where one bay serves the same driver most of the time.

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.
