In the run up to getting my car I've got 3 quotes dating back to October, got the car yesterday and got a call today from a very nice lady from Western power Distribution advising me that they had been contacted by one of the fitters who quoted and my power supply is not fit for a home charger.
Apparently I am on a looped supply so I share the supply with my next door neighbour and a street light and I will need a new supply cable fitted which will be free but involves digging up a chunk of our road and more importantly a trench across our drive.
I thought I had researched home charging thoroughly but I had never heard of this , is it common?
House is on an estate built about 30 years ago
Wonder if they would fit 3 phase while they are at it Has to be some silver lining to this surely.
