EV Points

lyledunn

New apartment block of 12 units with 18 associated parking spaces. The contractor has brought a 80A TPN supply from the intake position to a new DB in fibreglass housing mounted on a steel frame near the car park. Ducting has been laid to 9 points to provide for twin sockets that will cover all spaces if necessary. The intention is to provide a DLM (dynamic load management) system such that the 80A per phase will never be exceeded and priority can be set. The units will have RFID that will allow billing. 
Part S does not apply, but suppose it did, also suppose that at least 12 points were required, would this be an acceptable arrangement given that each charge point is supposed to provide at least 7Kw? 

by the way, using IPad, I could not get the cursor back to correct or modify what I have just written!

    I will tell you why this "public transport" idea does not work. I wanted to go by train from Bristol to London on 29th of January with my partner. I looked to book but the price is astronomical. We can go standing class for about £300 return, or first for only £700!

    I've no idea who you asked about the fares but they seem to have got their decimal points in the wrong place. I've just looked at a well known on-line tail ticket site and both of you should be able to get to London on that date for less than £75. Probably less if you'd booked further in advance or could manage with a less civilised departure time. Return is usually less than two singles.

    and there are options to book seats on the next page too.

    I'd grant you that the rail ticketing system is rather a mess and very confusing to the casual traveller - traditional "walk on" fares have all but disappeared for long distance these days - the train companies much prefer you to book in advance and often operate an "airline" style ticket price system - i.e. the price varies very considerably depending on how many empty seats they think they're going to be left with. Walk-on prices are often pitched to encourage pre-booking, but anyone who can sell you a ticket should really offer you the cheapest available.

    But all that is a consequence of politics and marketing - rather than any fault in the underlying transport technology - and could easily be fixed if the political will existed.

    IF you can guarantee to be at the station on time, advance tickets are fine, but if you are late, you pay twice; and if you are early, you get bored.

    Recently, when I had to leave my motor car at the main stealers just under 8 miles away as the crow flies, I thought that I would try out public transport. It took me 2½ hours to get home by public transport.

    There's some quote along the lines of "you'll have to prise "this is the bit I can't remember" from my cold, dead, fingers" which is how I feel about my 5 cylinder 2.5 litre diesel engined car. I once lived near Swindon and our brood were in London, the sheer cost of using the train, never mind the inconvenience meant we always drove.
