Patent attributes
The present disclosure relates to a charging cable system, having a charging cable with a plurality of individual conductors running within the charging cable to transfer a charging current and with a cable connection part for connecting the charging cable to the stored energy source of an electrically driven vehicle. According to the present disclosure, at least one cooling channel runs within the charging cable, in which cooling channel a cooling medium is guided to the cable connection part, and in the cable connection part valve means are provided for returning the cooling medium to the charging cable. The charging cable is designed such that after this return, the cooling medium flows at least partially around the individual conductors.
