Does the ABB Terra AC work with Ladehase?

Not yet. Ladehase will connect the ABB Terra AC via OCPP once enough locations are on the waiting list. Sign up on this page, it’s free and non-binding.

How long does it take to charge 20 kWh with the ABB Terra AC?

At full power of 22 kW, about 55 min. If the car charges at 11 kW at most, it takes about 1 h 49 min. At 0.45 CHF/kWh, the charge costs CHF 9.00.

Do guests need an app or a charging card for the ABB Terra AC?

No. Guests scan the QR code at the charge point and pay in the browser with TWINT, Visa, Mastercard, PF Pay, Apple Pay or Google Pay. They do not need an account.

Does the ABB Terra AC have an MID meter?

Yes, as a variant. When buying, choose the version with an MID meter if you need certified values.

Does the ABB Terra AC need Wi-Fi?

The ABB Terra AC needs an internet connection, via Wi-Fi or a LAN cable. In underground car parks, the cable is often the more reliable option. There are also variants with a mobile connection.

Can residents or family charge with a card?

Yes. The ABB Terra AC has an RFID reader. You set up charging cards as access grants in Ladehase, free of charge or at a special rate with a monthly statement.

ABB Terra AC: let guests pay by QR code

The ABB Terra AC comes with a socket or tethered cable, at 11 or 22 kW, with LAN and Wi-Fi, and mobile in the C variants. It supports OCPP 1.6J and authorisation by RFID or app. That makes it a good fit for businesses, offices and car parks where visitors should pay.

Example calculations for the ABB Terra AC

Charging time and price at 0.45 CHF/kWh, calculated with Ladehase's tariff engine. The final amount is rounded to 5 centimes.

Charging time and price for the ABB Terra AC
Energy charged	Time at 22 kW	Time at 11 kW	Amount at 0.45 CHF/kWh
10.0 kWh	27 min	55 min	CHF 4.50
20.0 kWh	55 min	1 h 49 min	CHF 9.00
40.0 kWh	1 h 49 min	3 h 38 min	CHF 18.00

Charging power also depends on the car: many electric cars charge on AC at 11 kW at most, some much less on a single phase. Charging losses are not included.

With an idle fee

Example: 20 kWh at 11 kW, then the car stays at the charge point for 3 h. From 1 h after charging ends, every started minute costs 5 centimes.

Amount: CHF 15.00, of which idle fee CHF 6.00

Your own tariff

Start fee, idle time, a different price per kWh or many charges a month: work out your case in the charging cost calculator.

Requirements

What you need so that guests can pay with the ABB Terra AC.

Internet: The ABB Terra AC needs a stable connection at the parking space via Wi-Fi or LAN. Check the reception in the garage before you start.
Authorisation: The ABB Terra AC is connected to Ladehase via OCPP and only starts a charge after authorisation. The station is then tied to Ladehase rather than to another backend.
Payment account: An account with zahls.ch or Freika, where payments arrive directly. For the PAX IM30 terminal you need Freika.
Metering: Ladehase bills with the charging station's meter readings. If you need certified values, plan for a separate MID meter.
Sign: QR code and tariff clearly visible at the charge point, as a PDF to print yourself or ordered weatherproof.
