I live in Italy and was just about to order a Gen 2 wall charger when I saw that the new gen 3 model had come out. However, after reading the specs, I have some concerns. Any advice would be much appreciated.
I recently upgraded my house mains to 3 phase (240v) in anticipation of installing an EV charger that would at least support the the 11.5Kw max. charge rate of the Tesla Model 3/Y and ideally 22KW. I had ordered a Tesla Model 3 but am now likely to buy a Model Y instead. I run an AirBnb vacation house and a key priority is having a destination charging service for my guests with any Electric car (All are type 2 in EU) as well as for charging my own Tesla. Here are my concerns:
1. The new wall charger states compatible with Tesla Model S/X/3, but not model Y. Is this just an oversight or will there be a compatibility issue with the Model Y?
2. The manual (US model only available now) states that the Gen 3 charger is single phase only. Is this just a US thing, or has the 3 phase connectivity been removed from the EU versions?
3. The EU installation model (Gen 2 only available now) states that for the 240v 3 phase configuration, "Note: This configuration should only be used with Tesla vehicles." Can anyone confirm if this is the case? I understood that if it has a type 2 connector then it should charge any EV with the same connector.
I had looked other EV wall chargers on the market, but decided to go with Tesla due to brand reputation and confidence that documentation will be in the local language for the electrician who does not speak any English. However, if this won't work with other EVs then it wouldn't work as a generic chargers for my guests.
Your thoughts would be much appreciated
