Zaptec Pro M&E with backplate – Eichrecht-compliant 22 kW wallbox

The Zaptec Pro M&E is a 22 kW wallbox that is Eichrecht-compliant in Austria and Germany, with a Type 2 socket, 4G, Wi-Fi and RFID. A type B RCD and circuit breaker are already built into the station, and many stations share one common supply line – saving space in the distribution board and installation costs. It distributes the available power automatically across stations and phases. The backplate that every Zaptec Pro needs is included in all versions.

The Pro M&E comes in three versions:

• Wallbox with backplate: the basic equipment for every Zaptec Pro – if you already have a Type 2 cable and your connection is sufficient.
• PV set with Zaptec Sense 65 A: additionally includes Zaptec Sense. Sense measures the building's consumption in the meter cabinet and continuously adjusts the charging power so that the connection is not overloaded.
• With Zaptec Type 2 charging cable: additionally includes the Zaptec Type 2 charging cable, 5 m, 3-phase, 32 A – ready to go.

At a glance

Charging power	up to 22 kW (3-phase, 32 A), 7.4 kW 1-phase
Connection to the car	Type 2 socket; charging cable only included in the version with charging cable
Meter	MID class B, Eichrecht-compliant in Austria and Germany
Protection	type B RCD and circuit breaker built into every station
Load management	automatic load and phase balancing; dynamic with Zaptec Sense 65 A – included in the PV set
Connectivity	4G, Wi-Fi, powerline
Warranty	5-year manufacturer warranty

A good fit if …

• you bill charging electricity to others, even at non-public charging points,
• a third party bills the kilowatt hours between two parties,
• more parking spaces are to be added and the backplates are mounted in advance,
• your connection is tight – then choose the PV set with Zaptec Sense.

Probably not, if …

• you only charge your own car – then a more compact wallbox without Eichrecht, such as the go-e Charger CORE, is enough,
• your house connection is above 65 A and you need dynamic load management – then you need Zaptec Sense 150 A or 600 A, just ask us,
• you are ordering for a company, a municipality or an organisation – then our B2B shop shop.ampion.at is the right place.

What it can do

• Legally compliant billing: Eichrecht-compliant metering in Austria and Germany; the data is cryptographically protected and shown at the station.
• Protection on board: A type B RCD and circuit breaker (3 × 40 A type C) are built into every station. A separate type B RCD per charging point in the distribution board is not needed.
• One supply line for many stations: According to Zaptec, up to 30 stations charge simultaneously on one 63 A supply line (TN grid); the system scales up to 100 charging points.
• No unbalanced load: Dynamic phase balancing automatically distributes single-phase charging cars across all three phases.
• Dynamic charging (PV set): Zaptec Sense adjusts the charging power to the building's current consumption.
• Plug & Charge: ISO 15118-2 via the built-in powerline – plug in and charge, with a compatible vehicle and backend.
• Prepare instead of retrofit: The backplate gets the parking space ready; the station is clipped on when needed without touching the electrics.
• Always online: 4G, Wi-Fi and powerline.
• Robust: IP54, IK10, −30 to +40 °C.

Good to know

• Austria (OVE R 37): The Pro M&E also meets the requirements from 15 December 2026.
• New installations from 2027: ISO 15118-2 is on board. According to Zaptec, the Pro is ready from 1 January 2027; ISO 15118-20 comes via a free firmware update.
• Germany (§14a EnWG): With Zaptec Sense, dimming by the grid operator is possible.
• Solar surplus: Zaptec currently offers this only in selected countries for small home installations. Austria is not included yet, nor are larger Pro systems. You will therefore mainly use the PV set for dynamic load management.
• Internet for Sense: If Sense loses its connection, the wallbox falls back to the minimum power of 6 A.
• On site: Circuit protected with a maximum of 63 A; cable cross-section 2.5–10 mm². Installation and registration by an electrician.

Frequently asked questions

When do I need Eichrecht?

When kWh of other users are billed or a third party such as a backend or solution provider bills the kWh between two parties – even at non-public charging points.

Do I need a type B RCD in the distribution board?

No, a type B RCD and circuit breaker are built into every station. Your electrician protects the supply line with a maximum of 63 A.

Does it work without the backplate?

No. The backplate is required for every Zaptec Pro and is therefore included in all three versions.

Where is Zaptec Sense installed?

In the meter cabinet or distribution board, indoors. Your electrician takes care of it. Sense 65 A is only included in the PV set.

What happens without internet?

The station keeps charging with the offline values last set in the Zaptec portal. According to Zaptec, it should not be operated offline permanently, though.

Can I mount it on a pedestal?

Yes, the Zaptec Pro is built for wall and pedestal mounting. The pedestal is not included.

Which charging cable do I need?

A Type 2 cable rated for 32 A. The version with charging cable already includes the Zaptec Type 2 charging cable (5 m, 32 A).
