Mobile Connector charging questions and 16a or 32a Blue adaptor?

Hi all,

I am planning to setup mobile connector charging in my garage and I have couple questions about it.
First one is should I choose 16a blue adaptor or 32a blue adaptor?
Secondly, if I choose 32a blue adaptor, can I charge at 16a as well? Is it possible to choose this option in "Charging" tab in the menu of car or somewhere else?
Thirdly, I need around 90 meters of cable from source of electricity to my garage so which cable type should I prefer? I was thinking of 3x6mm2 but maybe smaller one is also possible 3x4mm2 or something else?

Thanks
 
If you choose 32A adaptor, then you can charge up to 32A, meaning all the range 5-32A settable in the car or via the app.
If you choose 16A adaptor, then you can charge up to 16A.

Firesafe minimal cable for 32A is 3x6mm2. For a 90m run of a cable I would suggest using much thicker cable - 3x 16mm2 for 32A to compensate for voltage loss.
