EV charging stations

1. ABB Terra AC

Climkit provides the ABB Terra AC 22kW charging station.

This is a model with all the features of a smart charging station:

  • Max power of 22 kW
  • Connection via Wi-Fi, Ethernet, or 4G
  • RFID badge reader
  • Integrated energy meter

Combined with Climkit Mobility, it offers the usual functionalities:

  • Dynamic management of charging power based on available power
  • User management via RFID badges and individual billing for consumed energy
  • Self-consumption optimization by charging only with the site's own solar energy

The charging station is available in 2 main variants:

  • Charging station with RFID reader without a fixed cable
  • Charging station with RFID reader and a fixed 5m cable

2. Other compatible charging station types

Climkit is compatible with all charging stations using the OCPP protocol. Here is a list of tested models.

Compatible and fully tested models (dynamic load management, user management, and billing):

  • ABB Terra AC
  • Schneider EV Link Pro AC
  • Eaton Green Motion Home
  • Keba Serie X

Other models compatible only for user management and billing:

  • Easee Home
  • Zaptec Pro

3. Charging station installation

An FI 3P+N Type A circuit breaker is installed for each charging station (provided by the electrical installer). It is not necessary to use expensive Type B or EV residual current circuit breakers.

The charging stations are at a maximum of 22 kW (32A) but can be connected at 25A, 16A, and 10A.

Generally, 16A is sufficient, as most current vehicles do not draw higher currents anyway.

The charging station is connected to the IT network via Ethernet or Wifi.

The charging station can be installed on a single or double metal pedestal (two charging stations back-to-back).

Each ABB Terra AC charging station comes with a unique PIN code found in the box. Be careful not to lose it, as it is essential for configuring the charging station.

Always refer to the charging station manufacturer's instructions.
