box, you have selected an innovative and future proof solution.
eMobility helps to save natural resources and protect the environment sustainably.
The ABL Wallbox combines progressive and pleasing design with intuitive function-
ality: According to their requirements, users may select from models with charging
socket or fixed charging cable, which are designed for domestic and also for semi-
public applications.
ABL Wallboxes are manufactured in Germany and comply with the regulations and
norms for the charging of electric vehicles applicable throughout Europe according
to IEC 61851-1, Mode 3. Please refer also to the section on “Wallboxes 3W2214,
3W2217 and 3W4401” on page 28.
Introducing the product
Your ABL Wallbox allows you to comfortably and safely charge electric vehicles accord-
ing to IEC 61851-1 Mode 3 and is designed for the shortest possible charging times.
We place the highest value on user safety in all our products. For this purpose, your
wallbox offers integrated DC fault current detection which, in combination with an
internal type A residual current circuit breaker (residual current device, called RCCB in
the following) and the protective measures of your electric vehicle effectively protects
from short circuit, electric shock and other operational hazards.
The wallbox is especially easy to operate during everyday use: LED lights on the hous-
ing cover allow you to check the current operating status at any time. Should a mal-
function occur, you can identify the cause by its specific LED error code without hav-
ing to open the housing. After being taken into operation by a specialist contractor, the
ABL Wallbox is ready for charging at any time. For some model variants each charging
process must be separately authorized via the integrated RFID module, provided this
function was activated during installation.
A common characteristic of all wallboxes is the attractively designed housing, which
effectively protects the internal electric circuits against environmental influences and
unauthorized access. In principle, all model variants of the wallbox must be installed
and taken into operation by a qualified electrical contractor. Please contact your local
ABL partner with any queries you may have.
