Andersen A2 — Premium Home EV Charger
A design-for-manufacture update and engineering refinement of a premium wall-mounted EV charger, focused on clean architecture, concealed cable stowage, serviceable layout and robust environmental design.
Concealed cable & tidy façade
Modular fascia (timber / composite)
Service-friendly interior
Thermal & EMC-aware layout
Brief
Elevate a best-in-class wallbox with engineering & DFM improvements while preserving its iconic material language and discreet, architectural presence on the home exterior.
Approach
- Mechanical architecture for easy assembly, service and field replacement.
- Cable-stowage solution integrated behind the front fascia for a clutter-free look.
- Thermal pathing, gasketing and drainage to support outdoor duty.
- Compliance-ready layout (creepage/clearance, bonding, strain-relief).
Result
- Clean façade with interchangeable fascia options (e.g., timber slats, composite panels).
- Improved manufacturability and installation workflow.
- Robust enclosure strategy with better part commonality.
- Premium feel with practical day-to-day usability.
Serviceable interior & logical zoning
Power electronics, comms and low-voltage sections are zoned for thermal management and EMC. Harnessing is routed for clear strain-relief; fixings are accessible with standard tools.
Thermal thinking
Heat paths, stand-offs and venting designed in from the start.
EMC awareness
Board partitioning, ground strategy and cable routing considered.
