Can someone confirm the electrical adapters and cables that came with the M3 SR+ in Aus? I know what I have been told, but haven't seen an actual Aus model. Only the US based ones in the show room (which couldn't be driven but had the wrong connectors).
One of those black ones is mine. They called me again saying i can pick up when I want. Unfortunately had to resist again due to work.
LOL. Yeah, join the club. If Leaseplan weren't on my side, I would be probably be still waiting. I contacted Leaseplan via email on Sunday, On Monday they said you will have a communication tomorrow (re appointment), sure enough, got an SMS text the following day from tesla confirming the delivery date. Sweat.Mine is black (when it arrives).

You could fit a 32A socket and then fit a plug to the HPWC that comes with the car, but that would actually cost more than just hardwiring the HPWC since the cost is the breaker/safety switch and running the cabling.
I need like a 10 metre cable length as want to park tesla in driveway and charge from socket near side of house. I thought a 3 phase plug adapter came with the car. I could then use a 3 phase extension lead. Anyone have suggestions. Parking on the property isn't a good option as Mr Snuffles tends to get loose and bite people when the gate gets opened... Don't need a 100K lawsuit after a 70K car purchase...

Yes that's what I did. Just need a lead and 3p plug from the HPWC. Then the HPWC is mobile (if necessary)

The UMC comes with standard Australian 10A and 15A tails. You get a HPWC with 7m cable that can charge up to 22kW, although this is limited to 11kW on the Model 3. you will need at least a 20A 3 phase circuit to get the most out of it.

Ok, this i starting to make sense. I will get an electrician in to see what can be done 20amp shouldn't be a problem. But I really need the darn boxes from Tesla for them to see them. Pity you can't collect these early. I will have another look at the charging manual they sent me as well. Thanks.
Do you live to work or live to Tesla?
Your profession may explain this situation....
Haha. I'm your friendly local policeman
10A and 15A rated plugs - the ones that look like the ordinary plugs you have at home.

Once I get my car I will bring it there too. Maybe can learn a few things from you guys.
Well, that's an option. I can always get a 15amp extension lead. That is socketed on the other side of the house for the little used Spa pool (presently bust)... Won't be a lot of current though. Might be enough to tide me over...
Woohoo

Confused as to why there are two Tesla boxes on the wall?
