Evening folks
Im in the midst of arranging an EV charging point in our home and Podpoint (have to use them due to it being a lease deal with free charger install with some installation exceptions that are going to cost) are asking for loads of details including what route I want the cable to go. Im getting stumped on whats best that wont end up with a unsightly heavy cable ran round the house.
Attached image shows where the podpoint needs to be installed and where a pair of consumer units are.
The Gym/Garage CU has two MCBs, 16A for a radial socket layout & 4A for lighting. It has no spare ways and is protected by a 63A RCD main breaker.
The main house CU (also where the meter is) has spare ways. It also feeds the Gym/garage CU via a 32A MCB. This feed is 4mm T+E (Which im a bit unsure of as its inside heavily insulated cavities).
The Podpoint is the 7kw model and requires a 32A rated feed as per Podpoints recommendations.
How would you guys go about routing the Podpoint to the main house CU ?
Cheers
