UMC: 16A Blue caravan plug?

[Renaissance]

My Dad recently took delivery of a new Model X, but all his UMC came with was the standard NZ/Aus 10A and unusual 15A plug adapters. I was under the impression that Tesla provided a UMC plug for 16A caravan (IEC 60309) sockets with New Zealand deliveries.

Did anyone get a 16A plug recently, or have any luck getting one from Tesla? Thanks.

Model 3 comes with standard type 1, 3 pin plugin and a 32amp wall charger but it has to be wired in by an electrician. You’ll have to buy a type 2 lead and I recommend Tesla’s as it’s longer and controls the cars power flap. It’s also blue and better for safety on the ground.

Mine came the same with the HPWC and UMC with the two adapters but no blue caravan plug. I think I read somewhere that Australian deliveries came with it but they took it out of NZ cars. Not sure why, but if that’s true then Tesla NZ should have some.

Tesla Auckland did say I would get the blue cable free but never happened even though my wife herd the rep as well. I didn't pursued it I just purchased the blue cable.

How much was the type 2 cable from Tesla

 

[Kiwiadventure]

$340.00 7.5m type 2 cable.

That's a good price!
I've seen 3ph 32amp 5mtr type 2 on aliexpress for about $300
without any charge-port control

A year ago these types of cables where around $600. Tesla leads in bringing pricing down and I'll support Tesla in purchasing their accessories.

Ditto with mine. I called service and they said that NZ cars UMC were not meant to come with the caravan plug but some had by mistake. They had one or two there and gave me one. That was early October.
