Earlier this year my electrician installed a 32A commando socket to use with my Ohme cable to charge my BEV.
22 metres of 10mm SWA cable runs from its own CU in the meter box to a Matt:e SP-EVCP-T “Single Phase Voltage Monitoring and Protection Unit” and from that to the commando socket.
My wife has bought a PHEV and it would be useful to charge both cars overnight on the cheaper tariff, so I’d like to be able to plug her car’s granny charger in to a 13A socket near the existing commando socket.
The Matt:e box states it “allows for the connection of 1 x 32amp single phase charge point to the existing PME earthing facility”.
The meter-box’s CU MCB is rated at 50A and the RCD at 63A.
Can I take a feed from the 10mm SWA before the Matt:e box to make a fused spur to a 13A socket and still be safe & within Section 722 Regs?
TIA,
Mike
