Hey Leelo. The gen 2 UMC is the same on all cars now, the US manual is here showing the 32A max:Hi All
First post here yet to order a M3 but doing the research on the supporting requirements like charging
I understand the Gen 2 UMC supplied with the M3 was limited to 16 amp regardless of the capability of the socket it’s plugged into is that not correct? The reason I ask is because I already have a32 amp commando socket in the back of my house near where I can park the car. This thread seems to imply I don’t really need to get a wall charger installed at all

If Tesla created a different version for UK it would be strange, and also would mean their UK parts division shouldn't be stocking 32A adapters, so I would say yes - you are all set, and if your socket was installed before the new regs (Jan 2019?) I believe you don't even need to consider Type B RCD (someone correct me if wrong).
It would appear Tesla previously suggested either type A or B is fine. Will see what my electrician comments tomorrow.
