Peugeot Partner Tepee EV charger: which one fits best?
The Peugeot Partner Tepee Electric charges at home at up to 3.7 kW over a single phase. That is modest, and it is the car that sets the limit. This electric people carrier dates from the 2017 to 2020 period. Its on-board charger, the charger built into the car, is a simple one. A more powerful wall unit will not fill the battery any sooner. What matters more is a charger that suits the Type 1 plug and still serves your next car. Peugeot builds several electric and hybrid models, each with its own charging speed, and our charging advice for every Peugeot compares them side by side.
For the Partner Tepee we recommend a charger from our 11 kW EV chargers.
A 22 kW charger will not charge this car any faster, so it only pays off if another vehicle uses it too.

Which EV charger suits the Peugeot Partner Tepee?
Because the Partner Tepee accepts only 3.7 kW, an 11 kW charger does not shorten the charging time. It is still the sensible buy. An 11 kW charger runs on three phases, and it works on a single phase supply as well. Your car draws the 3.7 kW its on-board charger allows. With three phases at home you are also ready for a faster car later.
A charger with a built-in MID meter is worth a look while you choose. MID stands for the European Measuring Instruments Directive. A certified kWh meter records exactly how much energy goes into the car. That shows you what charging at home really costs, apart from the rest of your electricity use.
In our range that meter sits mainly on the 22 kW models. At 11 kW the choice is narrower, so compare the chargers with a MID meter before you decide.
Two other features are worth weighing here. App control lets you start a session or read your consumption from your phone. That suits a car that charges overnight, and you will find those models under EV chargers with an app. A charger with dynamic load balancing measures what your fuse box has to spare. It lowers the charging power when the house needs it, so nothing trips.
You can compare the full range of 11 kW EV chargers yourself. We also talk you through the choice by phone or WhatsApp, at no cost. Our home EV chargers are the models built for a normal domestic connection.
Which charging cable does the Partner Tepee need?
The Partner Tepee has a Type 1 inlet, the older connector type. Modern chargers use a Type 2 outlet. You therefore need a Type 1 to Type 2 charging cable to charge at home. A charger with a fixed Type 2 cable will not connect to this car directly.
How long does the Peugeot Partner Tepee take to charge?
Count on roughly six hours for a full battery at home. The usable pack holds 20.5 kWh, and divided by 3.7 kW that comes to about five and a half hours. Charging losses account for the rest. A faster charger changes nothing here, because the on-board charger sets the limit. On the road you use a CHAdeMO rapid charger, the older Japanese fast charging standard this car was designed for. It takes the battery to about 80 percent in half an hour. For daily use, charging overnight at home stays the simplest and cheapest option.

Frequently asked questions
Does the Peugeot Partner Tepee need a three phase charger?
No. The Partner Tepee charges on a single phase at up to 3.7 kW. A single phase charger is technically enough. An 11 kW three phase unit is still useful if you plan to charge a faster electric car later. This car keeps charging at 3.7 kW either way, because its on-board charger sets that limit.
Why does a MID meter matter for the Partner Tepee?
A MID certified kWh meter records your charging precisely, in line with the European measuring standard. You then know what charging at home costs you, apart from the rest of your electricity use. The reading is certified, so the figure is not an estimate.
Should I have the charger installed?
We always recommend having the connection made by a qualified electrician. It is safer, and many insurers expect the work to be done by a professional. Wallbox Discounter arranges installation in the Netherlands, Flemish Belgium and Germany, and nowhere else. In the Netherlands and Flemish Belgium you order it together with the charger. In Germany it runs through a free quotation. We ship worldwide, but installation stays limited to those three countries. Our installation service page has the details.
