Wow, anything that is 180 volts is BAD. Someone needs to look at that. Probably loose connections somewhere (or I guess it could be just really long wire of insufficient gauge, but that would be a big mistake to have installed it that way).
I am surprised the Tesla would not kick off and refuse to charge (or at least back off charging speed). I am not sure what their current thresholds are for backoff / abort.
This is at the J1772 charger at the Pittsburgh Zoo. I had called them about it a few weeks ago. I was only recently back there for the first time in several weeks. I plugged in my 3, and the voltage went up to 190 volts pretty quickly this time, but after about 3-4 minutes my Model 3 throttles it back from 30 amps to 22 amps, saying there was a power problem or extension cord in use.
