Only one EV charger at home?!

My house just has a 60 amp fuse so no more than 15kW. Just as well that I have no intention of acquiring an electric car. The supply cable runs underneath the solid floors of the house according to the details I was given when I bought it.

Smart meters are smart. They don't need to open them to reset them.

...

Well, I have all of that, except that the kettle is plain, not electric, and the dishwasher has been broken for decades.

We drink coffee.

You call the electricity company and ask them to install a charging point in your garage. Install new or change anything necessary.

Me? Yes, on one of the rooms.

Yes, you certainly can have separate electrical house heating and air conditioning.

Oh, yes, water was free. You went to the river or the fountain to collect it. With a horse or a donkey if you were rich.

At 3.6kW total, the AC would be using at least half that!

That would cost a fortune considering they have to lay new cable.

It will cost me £100 for the socket and a fiver for some cable.

Heated by?

My dishwasher and washing machine both use 2-3kW. That would be a bit of a problem in your house.

Smart meters are very recent. I was talking about the ones before then.

If the wire is thick enough, just stick a 100A fuse in it. They're a tenner on Ebay.

It's the car making him do it, not the station.

So?

If you want more, pay more and get it.

Unfortunately, it's just what we got - we weren't buying, as the car is leased and the charger fitted for free. Fortunately the lease is at a much lower rate than a normal lease, as it is through Motability. If it was at full rate, we'd have been buying a second-hand petrol car.

But you do have to go to the gas station and not just park up on your driveway at the end of the day.

Non-smart meters do not have a limiter inside.

Not really. When it was working, we put it on then went to sleep. All the house was off except the machine.
