Three Phase Domestic E.V. Chargers.

Zoomup
There are three phase E.V. chargers available. Most houses only have a single phase supply though, BUT here in darkest Norfolk many houses have a three phase supply due to having no mains gas supply. This was originally to power off peak storage heaters.


Often I find a single phase supply in homes with two unused dusty main fuses for the two additional phases.


I was wondering if the cost of converting to a three phase tariff would benefit customers who wish to connect up a new E.V. charger to a three phase supply at home.


Thoughts please

    The standing charge is usually a bit higher Chris. They need to keep more kit working. Sometimes cheaper tariffs are available if you need a lot of electricity, but some "domestic" tariffs may not be available.
