Named after their respective nominal current, the new charging connectors have in fact a much higher ampacity. Thus the LV160, for instance, has a maximum current carrying capacity of 250 A! That is owed to an innovative contact technology.

LV Series connectors exceed the requirements of standard EN 1175-1 and meet all current demands of manufacturers and users of modern battery-powered machines and systems, such as materials handling and lifting vehicles, vehicle batteries, battery chargers, and backup systems of uninterruptible power supplies.
