If I was to have a car charging point installed it would make sense for it to be located in/on my garage rather than the wall of my house.
I already have a garage CU fed by a 32A MCB in the CU in the house and underground SWA cable.
One web site says..
Quote:Charging Solutions home systems are available with ‘standard’ (16A 3.2kWh) or ‘fast’ (32A 7kWh) charging capability
I'm aware I will have to physically check the cable size/cross section and length etc but cant do that at the moment.
I think the current distance is around 25-30m (House CU to Garage CU) but it would be more like 35-40m from the house CU to charging point.
Online calculators suggest the existing cable to the garage is probably 6sqmm but might be 10sqmm if I'm lucky.
Am I correct in assuming that if it's 10sqmm I'll probably be OK but it's 6sqmm it will be marginal or need upgrading?
