Ok, I guess that makes sense. I didn't think of it, but I guess one doesn't have to enable power sharing between 2 Gen 3 HPWC.If you have a 120A feeder circuit to a sub-panel with two 60A breakers, one for each Wall Connector, then you don't need load sharing at all.
Now, if you can only put a 100A breaker in your main panel because of the other loads, then load sharing will help you get the full 48A to any one car and 40A to two simultaneously.
That said, my question remains, with a 120A feeder (this is theoretical) to a sub-panel with two 60A breakers, AND power sharing turned on, the two HPWC will still be able to provide full 48A of electricity simultaneously? I really just want to understand why someone elsewhere said that they 2 HPWC can only share up to 64A--seems like that's wrong.
And last question, practically speaking (as there seems to be some wacky reports of slow ramp up to 48A, etc., on here) what can one expect out of 2 HPWC charging two vehicles at the same time, if they're on say an 80A or 90A feeder line to a sub-panel with 60A breaker for each HPWC? Will one, in real world, get 48A out of one and how much out of the other?
And a last, last question. Regarding the 125% rule applying to continuous power supplies, which of these is correct, is it (48+48)x1.25 or is it (60+60)x1.25?
