When connected and powered on, tapping the Current button will display the automatically set current on the LCD screen.
Note: 32A tail will be fitted with the 32A single-phase plug, if you prefer the 3-phase 5pin plug just add that in the Order notes.Description
This is truly a “plug-and-charge” solution and is 100% safe. it is impossible to draw more current than is available at the powerpoint and the tails work at the 3 most commonly found sockets, as follows:
10A GPO’s
Deliver current up to 10A, or approximately 2kW of power.
15A GPO’s
These outlets with a larger Earth pin (the vertical slot), and deliver current up to 15A, or approximately 3kW of power.
32A Industrial switched sockets (single or 3-phase)
Delivers current up to 32A, or approximately 7kW of power.
Note the slot (or “keyway”) on the bottom of the outlet. This ensures only 32A 3-phase plugs will fit.
The keyway on the 3pin version is in a different location and ensures only 32A single-phase plugs will fit.
The closest “feature-for-feature” product (i.e. auto-sensing swappable tails) is the Tesla Gen2 Mobile Connector ($550), and when bundled with the 32A Connector Adaptor ($175), the Gen2 UMC cable organiser/holder ($30) and carry bag ($25) brings total cost to $780 — or buy this kit and save $135.
You can override the charging current in 1A steps downwards and the overridden setting is remembered between charging sessions. To remove the override manually set the charging current back to the default value for that tail.
Don’t be drawn-in to “half-baked” solutions offered by other re-sellers. Here are some examples:
- On powering-on the amperage defaults to 10A so if you charge 15A or 32A for your everyday charging you have to set the current every day, or
- On powering-on the amperage is downwardly limited to the maximum set by the tail but not upwardly.
