Now consider your home EV charger, taking a Nissan Leaf as an example. They offer/suggest 3 or 7kW home chargers. You will get away with a 3kW charger providing a full charge in 14 hours, but the 7kW one will likely cause issues at some point or other during the up to 6 hours its on. Lets be super fair and suggest the battery is usually only one third depleted when its put on charge. Sadly this will make no difference to the power draw from charger. It will draw power at its max limit for most of the time its on due to the efficiency of the batteries. Some sort of off peak circuitry may help but would require substantial changes to consumer unit and wiring. Oh and this is just considering one small EV BTW
I’ve had a 40kw Nissan Leaf for 20 months, initially charged on a 13amp socket until my 7kw charger was installed, 3.3 kw array of solar also installed, never had a problem with any of it,
If the systems installed correctly by approved installers why would you?
