ABB Terra AC Wallbox Charging Station

ABB Terra AC Wallbox Charging Station is a Level 2 home EV charger from ABB with up to 32 A (7.68 kW) output and a J1772 connector — 26 ft cable, networked smart charging.

Our take

Twenty-six feet of cable is the longest reach among the 21 certified 32 A models in this database — two feet past the class median and enough to serve either side of a two-car garage without repositioning. The rest of the sheet is solidly conventional: 7.68 kW for roughly 27 miles of range per hour, full rate usable by 25 of our 29 tracked EVs, a 40 A minimum circuit, and Wi-Fi like three-quarters of the cohort. Standby of 3.2 W sits just below the 3.27 W class median, around 28 kWh a year. A long-armed, middle-of-the-fairway pick.
