The ENECTOR Wallbox offers a maximum charging capacity of 11 kW at a nominal current of 16 A and works according to the standard Mode 3 (IEC 61851-1). With an integrated electronic DC residual current protection of 6 mA and an operating temperature of -25 to 50 °C, the wallbox is suitable for a wide range of applications.
Thanks to its IP54 protection rating, the wallbox is protected against dust and splashes of water, making it suitable for outdoor use. Its dimensions of 392 x 251 x 165 mm make the ENECTOR compact and easy to install.
Tested by ADAC: KOSTAL ENECTOR wallbox
ADAC, Germany's largest automobile club, has been known for decades for its expertise in conducting independent product tests. With its strict and comprehensive test methods, ADAC offers consumers valuable guidance in selecting high-quality and safe products. ADAC's wallbox tests take into account various criteria such as safety, reliability and features. This is how ADAC ensures a high degree of transparency and trust in the tested products.
Here is a brief overview of the ADAC test results:
ADAC rating: Good (2.3)
Function: Very good (1.3)
Safety: Good (1.6)
Exemplary low standby consumption at 9.6kWh per year
The KOSTAL Wallbox ENECTOR was tested as a ‘simple’ charging station. However, when integrated into a PV system and combined with the PLENTICORE hybrid inverter and the KOSTAL Smart Energy Meter, the KOSTAL Wallbox can be upgraded to a smart charging station with the ‘ENECTOR’ activation code, offering the following convenient functions:
• Connection to the KOSTAL Solar App for mode selection and monitoring in your own home network via WLAN
• Connection to the KOSTAL Solar Portal for monitoring
• 5 charging modes incl. quick charge (Power Mode), solar-only charging (Solar Pure Mode), solar charging with grid share (Solar Plus Mode), lock (Lock Mode) and time mode for scheduling
This extended functionality enables the ENECTOR to maximise self-consumption of self-generated solar power, to minimise grid purchases for wallbox charging during the summer months and thus to intelligently control charging behaviour.
In combination with other KOSTAL products, such as the PLENTICORE hybrid inverter series, the KOSTAL Wallbox offers a sustainable and future-proof solution for charging electric vehicles and making optimum use of self-generated solar power.
The KOSTAL complete system: everything from a single source
In addition, the ENECTOR wallbox and the PLENTICORE inverter together form the complete KOSTAL system for photovoltaic systems. Both products work seamlessly together and enable optimal energy management. The combination of wallbox and inverter ensures that the solar power you generate is used efficiently – both for the household and for charging electric vehicles. Power electronics for PV systems from a single source guarantee that all components are perfectly matched, thus ensuring that the solar system operates optimally.
Conclusion: The ENECTOR wallbox from KOSTAL has been successfully tested by the ADAC and thus ensures a further success – like the past awards. These include the ‘German Innovation Award’ for high quality and user-friendliness and the ‘Green GOOD DESIGN Award’ for outstanding design. These successes underline the innovative strength and reliability of the KOSTAL ENECTOR Wallbox.
Tested multiple times. Multiple award winner. The KOSTAL Wallbox ENECTOR is the perfect addition to your own PV system. Now available in stores!
