Electrical Insulation & Shielding for EV Charging Stations

As charging stations add more features and increase functionality, the importance of internal connections and insulation becomes more critical. The density of components and wiring increases, which need to be properly insulated and bundled. Communication modules also need to be shielded from interference for proper payment functionality. Our wide variety of substrate and adhesive configurations are designed to provide the high dielectric, temperature, chemical and mechanical resistance that the industry requires.
