On a home wall box the EV3 draws 7.4 kW and the 32A single phase cable hands it over in full, which is why that is the lead to buy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe port is at the front, on the offside\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWorth knowing before you choose a length, because it is not where most people expect.
