Charger configurations
The charger is built up with a modular architecture
Supported charging standards in a charger configuration are described by a letter:
Indicator
Description
C
CCS up to 50kW DC output
J
CHAdeMO version 1.0 up to 50kW DC output
G
Type 2 AC power over a connected lead up to 41.4kW and 3 phases
T
Type 2 AC power over a socket up to 22kW and 3 phases
The maximum power each outlet can deliver depends on the charger type. This is indicated on the
type sticker with the indication T23 respectively T53.

Power ratings are configurable and are restricted by the available grid fuse. Depending on the fuse
and the type of charger,7 the DC outlet (CCS/CHAdeMO) and AC outlet can or cannot be used at
the same time. Simultaneous DC charging is not possible.
Example: T53 CJG is a Terra charge station with 3 outlets (CCS, CHAdeMO and AC 43kW lead)
which, if connected on a 160A external fuse, can charge 50kW DC and 43kW AC simultaneously.
2.3
Authorization to charge
Operation of the charger is possible with or without authorization. The authorization to charge can
be based on RFID, PIN or mobile authentication methods. Operating a charger with authorization
requires a subscription to a backoffice. This can either be an ABB supplied standard solution, or an
external company offering authorization solutions via OCPP.
