Robust charging station with Type 2 socket for any electric vehicle. The charging station allows a charging power of up to 11 or 22 kW (32 A/400 V). The charging current can be adjusted via the display in 1-ampere increments between 6 A and 32 A. The station does not have a permanently connected cable, but rather a Type 2 socket for connecting any Type 2 charging cables. The display shows the energy consumed so far and the current charging parameters such as current and voltage. Thanks to the integrated DC fault current detection, an expensive type B RCD in the supply line can be omitted.
