Man in the Middle Cable
MitM
The Man-in-the-Middle Cable (Catalog No. MitM) was created to work with the T4000 and T4350 to enable a technician to use an electric vehicle rather than a very large load emulator to absorb the energy delivered by the DC fast charger during charger testing. It currently comes in 350 Amp CCSI and 200 Amp Tesla/NACS models, each with charging connector holders and digital temperature sensors.
