SpecGrizzl-E Ultimate (GRU-077-W-HW-25DJ80-A-GB)ABB Terra AC W19-P8-R-*D-*Weight
Official maximum output powerThe official maximum output power published on the ENERGY STAR certified AC-output EVSE record, in kilowatts. It is the certified nameplate figure, not a charging speed we measured at a vehicle. In this category the reference range is 12 kW to 19.2 kW. Official figures above 19.2 kW are clamped at the reference best so a rare dual-output 38.4 kW record does not dominate the ranking. 19.2 kW 19.2 kW 30%
Official maximum output cord lengthThe official maximum output cord length published on the ENERGY STAR record, in feet. A record of 0 ft is shown as 0 ft and usually means the certified unit is an inlet or socket without a factory cable. We do not guess a cable length from retailer listings. Official lengths above 30 ft are clamped at the 30 ft reference best. 25 ft 26 ft 25%
Official no-vehicle-mode input powerThe official no-vehicle-mode input power published on the ENERGY STAR record, in watts. Lower official standby power is better. This is a certified laboratory figure for the charger when no vehicle is connected, not a bill we measured at a house panel. 1.78 W 2.74 W 25%
Official network capabilityOfficial network capability on the ENERGY STAR record, recorded as yes or no when the field is filled in. This is the certified network-capability flag, not a test of the maker's app. If the field is blank it is shown as Not listed. Yes Yes 20%
