I understand all this tecnical aproaches to solve the problem, because I tried since 2008.I think the stock holders on this forum really need to wake up to this issue... Tesla are making some terrible engineering decisions which will seriously hurt the company.
For Power quality Expert training I spent about 10 000 sFr to get more access to the Utiity responsible for connection.
When I applied a 1ph connection for a Tesla Roadster with 32A 230V or 32A 400V the answer was:
It is tecnically possible, according D-A-CH-CZ Rules, but as long, as we have not discussed this supject, between the different utilitys we have a political agreement, not to allow for 1ph above 16A230V and 400V.
You do not need to apply, because we politically do not allow.
So there are 2 political statements: Teslamotors "neclection for 3ph" & Swiss Utility "1ph above 16A"
According IEC 61000-3-11 for 16-75A 1ph Teslamotors must declare the connection needs a 100A fuse or a max Impedance to allow this connection.
But this works only if the Utility does not decide politically.
Teslamotors hide this circumstances, by illegal recomandation, to install a free red CEE-5/32A plug.
