Charging cable
Full AC charging speed for your car.
Why this fits your Master Z.E. / E-Tech+−
The Renault Master Z.E. / E-Tech has a Type 2 inlet and a single-phase 7.4kW onboard charger. A 7.4kW cable already delivers its full AC speed. The 22kW option only helps if your next car charges faster.

Charging
the Renault Master Z.E. / E-Tech.
The Renault Master Z.E. / E-Tech Gen1 is a large electric panel van that has been on sale in the UK since 2018. Early examples (2018 to 2022) used a 33kWh battery; later versions (2022 to 2024) moved to a 52kWh pack for greater range. Both generations charge through a Type 2 inlet for AC, and the 52kWh version gained an optional 22kW DC rapid port (CHAdeMO), though the 33kWh version has no DC charging at all. The cable you bring for wallbox or public AC charging is a Type 2 to Type 2 lead.
The onboard AC charger on Gen1 Master is rated at 7.4kW on a single phase for all variants, so AC charging speed is consistent across the production run. Rapid DC charging, where available on the 52kWh version, uses a tethered cable at the charger rather than one you supply.
The 33kWh variant has no DC rapid charging. The 52kWh variant added an optional 22kW DC (CHAdeMO) port. Rapid (DC) times are for a 10 to 80% charge, the way manufacturers quote them. Real-world charging varies with temperature, battery state and the charger itself.
7.4 kW or 22 kW?
Which cable does
the Master Z.E. / E-Tech need?
Across both battery variants, the Gen1 Master's AC onboard charger tops out at 7.4kW on a single phase. That means a 7.4kW Type 2 cable provides the full AC speed this van can draw, and a 22kW cable would offer no charging speed advantage. A 7.4kW Type 2 to Type 2 lead is the practical and cost-effective choice for all Gen1 Master E-Tech variants.
The only exception to carry in mind: if your 52kWh variant has the optional CHAdeMO DC port and you use public rapid chargers, that charging is handled by the charger's own tethered lead, not a cable you bring. For the 33kWh variant, rapid charging is simply not available in any form. In both cases the cable you buy is purely for AC use.
What does it cost to charge?
Filling the 52kWh battery from empty on an off-peak EV tariff of around 7.5p per kWh costs roughly £4. At a standard rate of around 27p per kWh the same charge comes to around £14. The earlier 33kWh pack costs proportionally less per charge but offers a shorter range per fill. Overnight charging at home or at a depot on a time-of-use tariff keeps running costs manageable. Check current rates as tariffs change.

Renault Master Z.E. / E-Tech FAQs
Good
questions.
Still not sure? Our team will confirm the right cable for your vehicle.
Contact usWhat charging cable does the Renault Master Z.E. / E-Tech need?+−
The Renault Master Z.E. / E-Tech has a Type 2 inlet, so it needs a Type 2 to Type 2 cable for UK home and public charging. It charges on single-phase AC at up to 7.4kW.
Can the Renault Master Z.E. / E-Tech charge at 22kW?+−
No, the Renault Master Z.E. / E-Tech has a single-phase onboard charger limited to 7.4kW, so a 7.4kW cable already delivers its full AC speed. A 22kW cable would only benefit a future car.
What length charging cable should I get?+−
5m suits most home and public charge points. Choose 7.5m or 10m if the charge point is far from your car's charging port or you park on the far side of a bay.
What charging cable does the Renault Master E-Tech Gen1 need?+−
A Type 2 to Type 2 cable rated at 7.4kW. The Gen1 Master's AC onboard charger is limited to 7.4kW single phase on all variants, so a higher-rated cable adds no speed benefit. A 22kW cable is not required.
Can the Renault Master E-Tech Gen1 charge rapidly?+−
The 33kWh version (2018 to 2022) has no DC rapid charging capability at all. The 52kWh version (2022 to 2024) has an optional 22kW CHAdeMO DC port on some examples, which uses the charger's own tethered cable rather than one you purchase separately.
How long does the Renault Master E-Tech Gen1 take to charge at home?+−
On a 7.4kW wallbox, the 52kWh version takes around 7 to 7.5 hours from empty, which works well on an overnight charge. The 33kWh version takes around 4.5 to 5 hours. A three-pin socket is considerably slower and is best kept as a backup option.
What length cable do I need for the Renault Master E-Tech Gen1?+−
A 5m cable is adequate for most driveways. In a depot or fleet setting where chargers may be set back from the parking area, a 7m or 10m lead avoids the cable being pulled taut. Large vans are not always easy to position close to a charge post, so a little extra length is often useful.
