WWilts Posted April 21, 2021 Posted April 21, 2021 On the application form for electric supply, they ask how many kW supply needed. They suggest 15kW suffices for a dwelling. 5 bedroom house, pumping chamber for foul drainage, electric vehicle charging point. What kW would you show as the requirement?
ProDave Posted April 21, 2021 Posted April 21, 2021 I would go for 21kVA and see if they flinch or try and negotiate. 1
WWilts Posted April 21, 2021 Author Posted April 21, 2021 Their guidance also says 3 phase supply has maximum 69kvA
ProDave Posted April 21, 2021 Posted April 21, 2021 Yes 100 Amps per phase is about 23kVA so 3 phase will give a maximum of 69kVA What rate are you expecting to charge your car? and only one EV or more? 1
WWilts Posted April 21, 2021 Author Posted April 21, 2021 Fast charging for EV preferred. Don't have an EV yet, but might get one hoping for savings on fuel & on installation of charger
