EV Charger Cable Holders

A cable holder or holster keeps your EV charging cable off the ground when not in use — protecting it from damage, eliminating trip hazards and keeping your install looking neat day to day. It's a small addition to any EV charger installation that makes a noticeable difference to usability.

There are two main types on this page. Wall-mounted cable holders fix to the wall alongside or below the charger and provide a hook, cradle or loop to hang the coiled cable. Cable holsters clip directly to the charger unit or pedestal post and hold the connector end securely when not plugged in — the neater solution for tethered chargers where the connector dangles when not in use.

EV Charger Cable Holder FAQs

A cable holder is typically wall-mounted and provides a hook, cradle or loop to hang the full coiled cable when not in use. A cable holster clips directly to the charger unit or pedestal post and holds just the connector end securely.

Both serve the same broad purpose but holsters are more compact and suit tethered installations where the connector end needs to be secured, while wall-mounted holders suit both tethered and untethered setups.

It's not a regulatory requirement, but it's a worthwhile addition to any installation. A cable left coiled on the ground is a trip hazard, wears faster and looks untidy.

A holder or holster costs a small amount relative to the charger and makes a noticeable difference to the daily usability and appearance of the install. For commercial and workplace installations it's particularly recommended.

Yes — wall-mounted cable holders are well suited to untethered installs. They give your Type 2 cable somewhere to live between sessions, keeping it off the floor and out of the way when not plugged in.

For untethered chargers, a wall-mounted holder is more appropriate than a holster, since there's no fixed connector end to secure to the unit.
