    I see one big issue. Cable is 3 phase, and single phase vehicles use only L1 to charge. If you want to keep your system balanced, you would need to rotate the phases for each charger

    • @efixx
      @efixx 4 години тому

      You can deal with this at each tap off - or select a charger such as the Zaptec Pro which handle this automatically

    • @Mladjasmilic
      @Mladjasmilic 3 години тому

      @@efixx Is there any solution where there are may networked chargers and they do measure load on each phase, try to balance the system as much as possible and make sure no phase is overloaded (63A limit)? And also balance the charging speed on each charging point by varying CP duty cycle. Some vehicles have single phase only, like Nissan Leaf. Some vehicles, like ID3 40kWh have 2 phase input, so they can do 32A single phase or 2x16A. And some cars can do 1 phase 32A or 3 phase 16A. Or in case of my Zoe, 1 phase up to 32A 7kW or 3 phase up to 63A 43kW.

    Whilst the environment is not industrial. The use is not household. It's external to the home, and the intended purpose is to deliver a 16/32A supply. Installing a shuttered traditional socket would be inappropriate for the use case.
