Can you use the DNO to instal a CCU?

Tomgunn

Hello all...

Hope everyone's ok??

Is it permissible to use the external DNO box to instal a CCU / other, for running a circuit to say a 'car charger?'

I'd always thought that this is not allowed so... 

regards...

Tom.

    For a modern EV, that is a trickle charge!  With modern batteries often being around 50 to 70kWh, charging at 7kW will take many hours.

    The charging points can usually be set to offer lower rates, such as 3.6kW, if necessary.
