Height, width, depth: the size of a wall-mounted EV charger can vary by a factor of three from one model to the next. These dimensions matter when you choose where to mount it, plan a canopy or compare a lockable enclosure. Below are the EV charger dimensions taken from the datasheets of 24 wallboxes commonly sold in Europe, followed by a method for measuring your own.
Most wallboxes are between 16 and 55 cm tall and between 7 and 18 cm deep. Depth is the most critical dimension as soon as a connector stays plugged in at the front or an enclosure is fitted around the unit.
EV charger dimensions: 24 wall-mounted models
The figures below refer to the unit itself, excluding the cable, socket holder and fixings, unless stated otherwise. They come from the manufacturers’ datasheets (or a retailer’s reproduction of them). Where a datasheet gives three dimensions without saying in which order, we list them as given, marked with an asterisk.

* Order of dimensions not specified on the manufacturer’s datasheet. Dimensions may vary by version (power rating, socket or tethered cable, built-in meter, front panel). Always check the manual for your exact model reference, shown on the charger’s rating plate.
Two common cases have their own page: for a Tesla Wall Connector, our Tesla charging accessories bring together a canopy, an enclosure and holders for its 7.3 m cable; if you charge from an outdoor socket rather than a wall charger, see our guide to charging from an outdoor socket.
Home EV charger sizes: three groups
For a quick comparison, look at the largest dimension of the unit, whichever way it runs:
- Up to 26 cm: compact units. Pulsar Plus, tethered Pulsar Max, Commander 2, Zaptec Go and Go 2, Easee, Ohme Home Pro, go-e Gemini. They are easy to fit, but their tethered cable or plugged-in connector often takes up more room than the unit itself.
- 27 to 40 cm: mid-size units. Tesla Wall Connector, ABB Terra AC, Legrand Green’Up Premium, Alfen Eve, Heidelberg Energy Control, ABL eMH1, V2C Trydan, socketed Pulsar Max.
- Over 40 cm: large units. EVlink Home and EVlink Pro AC, Mennekes Amtron 4You, Webasto Unite and Next, KEBA P30, myenergi zappi, Waybox Easy, Hager Witty Start. These are often chargers with a meter, a lock or a reinforced front panel.
Power output says little about size: several manufacturers use the same housing for 7.4, 11 and 22 kW, as Easee and Zaptec do, for example.
How to measure your charger: 5 points to check
- The unit: height, width and depth at the most protruding point, including the front panel and lock.
- The plugged-in connector: on a socketed charger, the Type 2 plug sticks out at the front while charging. A Type 2 plug alone is roughly 16 to 20 cm long depending on the manufacturer, part of which goes into the socket. Measure the whole assembly in real conditions.
- Cable exit and storage: on a tethered charger, note where the cable comes out (underneath, at the side) and where the connector is stowed when not in use.
- Clearances in the manual: the space to keep free around the unit for ventilation, controls and maintenance.
- The surroundings: distances to a gutter, a wall corner, a meter or a garage door.
Take one photo from the front and one from the side with a tape measure in view: that is the best way to judge the real depth, which is often underestimated.
Comparing your charger with a lockable enclosure
An enclosure adds a shell around the charger. Its external dimensions are not its usable space: the door, reinforcements and lock take up part of the volume. So compare your charger with a margin, not ‘to the millimetre’.
| Your charger | First size to compare | What to watch |
|---|---|---|
| Compact unit (up to 26 cm), tethered cable | Vault 60 × 40 × 20 cm | Connector storage and cable exit. |
| Compact or mid-size unit with a socket | Vault 70 × 50 × 25 cm | Depth with the plug inserted. |
| Mid-size unit (27 to 40 cm) | Vault 70 × 50 × 25 cm | Depth and ventilation clearances. |
| Large unit (over 50 cm, or more than 15 cm deep) | Vault 70 × 50 × 25 cm, to be confirmed case by case | The margin may not be enough. |
This table is for shortlisting, not for confirming compatibility. Ventilation, access to the controls, cable entries and the charger manufacturer’s instructions must be confirmed by your installer before fitting. The Vault enclosure does not claim any certified burglary-resistance rating: it restricts direct access to the unit without making the charger tamper-proof.
To understand when an enclosure is useful, and what it does not protect against, read our guide EV charger theft protection: fixings and lockable enclosures. In a shared car park, an enclosure is only one way to stop someone else using your charger: see our article how to stop people using your EV charger in a shared car park.
What about a canopy or a cover?
For a canopy, the width and depth of the unit matter more than its height: the roof must cover the top of the charger and the plugged-in connector without encroaching on the clearances. For a cover, it is the other way round: it must wrap the unit when not in use, height included. Compare with the product pages for the Shelter canopy and the Cover storage cover, or browse our EV charger shelter collection.
Frequently asked questions
How big is a wall-mounted EV charger?
Roughly 16 to 55 cm tall for the models in this table, with a depth of 7 to 18 cm. Compact models (Zaptec, Easee, Pulsar) fit within an A4 sheet; chargers with a meter or a lock are considerably larger.
Is a 22 kW charger bigger than a 7 kW charger?
Not necessarily. Several manufacturers use the same housing for every power rating. Size differences come more from a tethered cable, a built-in meter or a socket with a shutter.
How long is a wallbox cable?
Usually 4.5 to 8 m for the tethered models in this table. A longer cable is more convenient but needs more room to store: a Loop wall holder keeps it off the ground.
Which enclosure should I choose for my charger?
Measure your charger with the connector in place, then compare it with the two Vault sizes, allowing a margin. If in doubt, send us the model reference and two photos: we will get back to you before you buy.
