A cable management system for an electric vehicle charging station is provided. The cable management system includes a pulley rotatably mounted to a support structure. The pulley has a first portion with a first guide groove with a constant radius and a second portion with a second guide groove with a dynamic radius provided around a rotation axis of the pulley. Further, the cable management system includes a charging cable having a first end connected to a charging connector and a second end connected to a power supply. A first wire is guided within the first guide groove. Additionally, the cable management system includes a mechanical counterforce system configured for counteracting at least a weight of the charging cable between the pulley and the charging connector, wherein the mechanical counterforce system is connected with the pulley via a second wire guided within the second guide groove.
