Doncaster Cables EV-Ultra™ 3C 6.0mm² + Cat 5e: UK-Made All-in-One EV Charger Cable

If you're planning a smart EV charger installation, the Doncaster Cables EV-Ultra™ 3C 6.0mm² + Cat 5e is the professional's choice. Trusted by electricians across the UK, this dual-purpose cable is specifically designed for single-phase EV charging points that require both high-current power and reliable data connectivity.

Combining 3-core 6.0mm² power conductors (Live, Neutral, Earth) with a full 4-pair Cat 5e UTP data cable in one Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF) sheath, it simplifies installation while meeting the latest BS 7671 18th Edition Wiring Regulations, including Section 722 for EV charging installations.

This premium-grade cable is manufactured in the UK by Doncaster Cables—a leading name in the electrical industry with over 40 years of cable manufacturing expertise.

Robust Power Delivery Meets Reliable Smart Connectivity

The EV-Ultra™ 3C 6.0mm² + Cat 5e cable is engineered for smart EV charger installations where performance, safety, and compliance are critical. The 6.0mm² copper power cores support higher current loads with reduced voltage drop, making them ideal for:

• Longer cable runs where 2.5mm² or 4.0mm² would struggle with efficiency.
• Single-phase EV chargers drawing higher amperage (32A+).

Meanwhile, the full Cat 5e UTP data cable ensures seamless communication with chargers requiring Ethernet connectivity, smart load balancing, or app-based control, such as Ohme Home Pro and Easee One. Integrating power and data into one run also avoids costly additional containment or ducting.

According to EV installers we work with, this cable regularly saves “at least 30 minutes per install” and reduces the risk of mistakes when running separate power and comms cables.

LSHF Sheath for Enhanced Fire Safety and Compliance

This EV-Ultra™ cable is manufactured with a Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF) outer sheath, a key requirement in many residential and commercial EV charger installations. Unlike standard PVC, LSHF sheathing reduces the emission of toxic gases and dense smoke in the event of fire, protecting building occupants and property.

Fully compliant with BS EN 50525-3-41 and BS 7671 Section 722 (which governs electrical supplies for EV chargers), it is suitable for fixed installations indoors and outdoors, including garages, outbuildings, and dedicated charger posts. The sheath is UV-resistant, impact-tested, and designed for longevity even in harsher British weather conditions.

Installers can also have peace of mind knowing the cable is tested in line with Construction Products Regulation (CPR) classifications for building safety.

Why LAMPS Recommends This Cable

We work with EV installers, housing developers, and facilities managers across the UK, and EV-Ultra™ remains one of the most trusted and requested cable solutions. It simplifies installations, improves aesthetics, and ensures compliance without compromise.

• Time-saving: A single run for power and data reduces install time and planning complexity.
• Performance-focused: 6.0mm² conductors ensure stability over longer distances and higher amp loads.
• Data-ready: Cat 5e supports Ethernet-based smart chargers, including solar-integrated and load-balanced models.
• Safer install: LSHF sheathing enhances safety in homes, schools, and commercial spaces.

If you’re installing a smart charger like the Hypervolt Home 3 Pro or Ohme ePod, this is our top cable recommendation.

Need an armoured version for outdoor or direct burial installs? Consider the SWA-armoured EV-Ultra™. For shorter runs or lower current chargers, the 4.0mm² version is also available.
