Abstract

The application relates to direct current, DC, charging cable including two DC conductors configured for transmitting electrical energy between an electrical vehicle and a charging device, at least a signal line having a first signal line end and a second, opposite signal line end and a control device, the first signal line end is connected at a first connection point to one of the DC conductors, and the control device is configured for measuring a voltage difference between the second signal line end and a second connection point of the one of the DC conductors distant to the first connection point for determining a temperature of the DC charging cable.
