Guy rang me yesterday, He wants to plug his EV in and charge it overnight at his static caravan. He only has a 2OA supply: that's fine he can in theory plug in via a 13A socket and trickle charge. What he wants/needs is some sort of management system that will turn off his charger if he turns on say kettle and toaster first thing; I don't even know if this sort of thing is available, I would think it would have to be installed at the CU and won't be cheap. I think I'm going to tell him he needs to speak to a registered EV point installer, as (before I even look) there's probably all sorts of issues here with liability, and additional earthing requirement/ RCD issues, but any thoughts? It''s an interesting and not unreasonable question, and i guess likely to be commonplace in the future. You have a static: how do you charge your car when you're there?
