What the Andersen A2 22kW charger is

Andersen A2 22kW 6.5m Tethered Smart EV Charger is the larger-format hidden-cable model in Andersen’s home charging range. The exact A2 variant in this row is the 22kW configuration with a 6.5m tethered cable. That distinction matters because the A2 family can also be configured at 7kW and with other cable lengths, while the 22kW version is specifically the three-phase option that Andersen positions for customers who either have a three-phase supply or need a longer-reaching tethered cable arrangement than the A3 offers.

The A2 is therefore not just a different fascia or size. It is the Andersen model for buyers whose installation brief demands more charging headroom or more cable reach, while still keeping the signature hidden-cable presentation that distinguishes Andersen chargers from more conventional tethered wallboxes.

Who it suits

The A2 22kW suits homes and design-led properties with access to a suitable three-phase supply and a buyer preference for a cleaner-looking tethered charger. It is especially relevant where a shorter lead would be inconvenient, where the charger position cannot sit immediately beside the vehicle inlet every day, or where the installation is part of a carefully planned exterior finish. It can also suit premium residential projects and architect-led new builds where appearance is given similar weight to electrical performance.

The 6.5m cable length is a real variant benefit rather than a small numeric change. On wider driveways, side parking positions or homes with more than one likely vehicle position, that extra reach can make day-to-day charging easier and reduce strain on how the cable is routed to the vehicle. Because the cable remains hidden inside the unit body, that convenience does not come with the usual visual trade-off.

Key features and practical benefits

• Up to 22kW charging on a suitable three-phase supply.
• 6.5m hidden tethered cable on the 22kW A2 version.
• Andersen App support with scheduling, reporting and solar charging features.
• 13 standard colour options with additional premium finish choices across the range.
• Hidden cable storage inside the charger body.
• 7-year warranty.

The biggest practical advantage of this exact version is that it combines higher charging capability with hidden cable storage. Buyers who want 22kW often end up looking at more commercial-looking chargers or exposed tethered units. The A2 offers a more considered exterior finish while still supporting the higher-power use case where the property supply allows it.

The second major advantage is charging flexibility. Andersen’s wider smart charging platform supports scheduled charging and solar features through the Andersen App, which gives the charger more value in households that are actively managing energy costs or trying to make better use of self-generated electricity. The A2 is not only about faster charging. It is also about giving the user more control over when that charging happens.

Technical details that matter in practice

Andersen’s comparison information for the current range shows the A2 as a charger available at 7kW or 22kW, with dimensions of 494 x 348 x 148mm, 13 standard colour options and a cable length range of 5.5m to 8.5m across the line. Andersen’s own buying guidance states that the 22kW version of the A2 is available with a 6.5m charging cable, which is the exact variant detail that matters for this row.

Andersen also confirms that the A2 is a hidden-cable charger and that all current charge points carry a 7-year warranty. Product support information for the Andersen App lists smart scheduling, remote disabling, visual reporting, personalisation features and solar charging across Andersen charge points. Andersen’s smart charging technology page also refers to mobile app control, solar integration and Bluetooth with the A2 platform.

From a product differentiation point of view, Andersen’s own range comparison is useful because it makes the A2’s place in the family clear. The A3 is the 7kW hidden-cable model with a 5.5m cable only. The A2 is the larger unit aimed at customers who want 22kW charging or more cable reach. That makes the A2 the better fit where charging speed and cable reach matter more than the smaller footprint of the A3.

Installation and fitment considerations

The A2 22kW is intended for properties with a suitable three-phase supply. That matters because a 22kW charger cannot deliver its full rated output on a standard single-phase domestic supply. Buyers comparing this model should therefore treat the electrical supply as a deciding factor rather than assuming the higher-power version is always the better option. Where three-phase is available, the A2 can offer faster AC charging and better suitability for vehicles that can take advantage of higher AC input.

The 6.5m cable length also changes fitment planning. It gives more freedom over charger location, especially on wider driveways or homes where the preferred mounting wall is not directly adjacent to the vehicle’s charging port. Because the tether stores inside the unit, the installation can still look contained when charging has finished.

Smart charging considerations are also relevant. Homes with solar PV can benefit more from the A2 because Andersen confirms solar charging capability in its app platform. That makes the charger easier to justify as part of a wider home energy setup rather than just as a charge point for one vehicle.

For useful next steps, customers can browse the wider Andersen EV charger range, compare installation options through EV charger installation, or look at the more compact Andersen Quartz range if hidden cable storage is not essential.

Why this exact variant may be the right choice

The A2 22kW 6.5m version is the right Andersen charger when the installation brief includes three-phase charging and a need for more cable reach. It gives buyers the hidden-cable format Andersen is known for while making room for a faster charging setup than the A3 can offer. That makes it particularly relevant on properties where both appearance and charging capability are priorities.

Compared with a shorter 7kW tethered charger, the A2 22kW can offer more flexibility in both charger position and AC charging speed where the vehicle and supply support it. Compared with a more generic 22kW wallbox, it offers a more restrained exterior finish and a cleaner post-use appearance because the cable is stored inside the unit. Those are real buying differences, not cosmetic extras.

The A2 is therefore not simply Andersen’s larger charger. It is the model for buyers who want the Andersen hidden-cable approach in a format that supports longer reach and higher-power charging.
