Hi everyone.
I’ve got a model 3 on order, but am having issues with my DNO.
My house only has a 60 amp supply, and as it’s old, I can’t just increase it by changing the fuse.
To install a new cable, they’ve quoted around £4000, plus builder costs to dig up my driveway, and electrician costs to move the meter and change the wiring.
Without doing all that, they won’t give me permission to have a charger installed. And I don’t have the approx £7000 sitting around right now!
I’ve given them solutions, like using a Zappi which has a device called a Harvi which can measure the load coming into the house, and reduce the charger output to keep it within 60 amps. And also said that I’ll only charge at night when no other high load units are switched on, but they still demand extra specifications that the Zappi doesn’t have.
Does anyone have similar circumstances and found solutions?
