Gen5 prime/phev battery temp management

The car's not checking anything itself about 3 or 1 phase mains wiring - the EVSE reports what's available. The portable EVSE knows it's for a normal mains socket, so reports suitable limits. And is always 1-phase. A fixed EVSE reports according to its installation.

The portable EVSE limit differs in different countries. UK might be 10A, some are lower. Different leads are supplied per country.

Finland is 8A continuous, or 12A for 2 hours - I've got a 3rd party charger that supports 12A for the first two hours as fast mode that I keep in the car. The Toyota one was just 8A, and that stays in use at home.

That charger will do 2 hours at 15A in some countries. Seems brave.

 

Or the code uses thicker wires,

 

In the UK, Belgium and the Netherlands (family) you charge an Ev /Phev at a normal house at 10A and 220 / 240 volts and always 1 phase. In the other countries I have no family or I have not been on holiday with the Prius 5 yet.

 

Checking again, that DEFA charger actually defaults to 16A standard continuous for the Netherlands, with 10A as the "slow" mode. Yowzers.

Wouldn't need a dedicated charging port for the Prius, if your standard mains socket doesn't melt.

So apparently no regulatory distinction between short-term and long-term power there?

UK they do as 10A continuous, 13A for 2 hours, or 8A low.
