Complete guide to Andersen home charging points

Andersen is a UK-based company that produces home wallboxes for electric cars. The brand sets itself apart from other suppliers by offering attractively styled casings for its charging points, designed to fit in with high-end modern home architecture and interior design. It's therefore no surprise that Andersen is a recommended installer for Porsche, and a preferred supplier for Jaguar Land Rover's PHEV and EV customers.

In October 2022, Andersen was acquired by another home charging point manufacturer, EVIOS. The British firm has said it will continue to serve both new and existing customers, and any outstanding orders will be fulfilled to customers’ bespoke specifications.

Andersen only offers one charging point: the wall-mounted A2, which is a tethered wallbox meaning the cable forms part of the charger. Buyers can use Andersen's Konnect+ app to monitor charging sessions, including the cost of each top-up, as well as remotely lock the charging point from your phone.
