Are you referring to the US? Or to what nation?
I don't know about other EU countries, but in France, 3-phase power is
In the US, the only residences that get 3 phase are apartment buildings.
I live in such a place. Each apartment, however, just gets 2 legs of the
3 phase, so two feeds of 120, and between them 208 volts. My stove gets
208 with a 50 amp breaker. Our EVSEs are connected to 208 volts single
phase

I just replaced the OEM Halogens in my 2015 Leaf S with these bulbs and
I've been very happy with them. I've always felt that the OEM low beams
were under powered, and driving at night I couldn't see as well as I
would really like.
I've been very happy with the upgrade, definitely brighter t
I suspect that you and I are talking at cross purposes, and I doubt that
you'll give an inch.
I persist because I think that even a flawed charging connector standard is
worth having, as long as it works reasonably well, which CCS2 does, and
ensures that every EV can charge at every public c
In homes with single phase EV charging installed, the charging station
can either provide 16A at 230V (which is essentially a standard EU
wall outlet worth of power) or 32A.
This of course gives you the same power and requires the same wiring
as a 16A or 32A single phase charging solution in the US

In the US, it's common for a Tesla wall charger to be 48A @ 240v. 11.5

Today, almost no homes receive 3 phase, it has to be requested by the home
owner and he has to have a valid reason for 3 phase. There is also an upch
NOTE also that the *cord* for CCS2 is lighter than any comparable US
standard cord, by virtue of the 3-phase AC power.
To transport 11kW, you need a 16A cord in EU. For the same power in
USA you need a 48A cord. 4 conductors for 16A are way lighter (and
cheaper and more flexible) than 2 conductors

Which is fine for EU homes with 3-phase. US homes do NOT have 3-phase.
Is the CCS2 cord lighter than a NACS cord? if so,

There is a development nearly that has the same situation.
Reason is that it used to be a commercial area and the utility has all
distribution transformers deliver 3-phase 208V
So, to avoid that ALL distribution network must receive new 11kV to
240V single phase transformers, the developer did what
Technically, the CCS2 supports 63A AC charging, delivering a whopping
43kW but there are few stations (Some older version Enel station is

No home can support it because grid connections are typically 25 or 35A

Maybe, but how much does the end user really care?
CCS2 works fine for me. I can charge anywhere without fussing with
potentially hazardous adapters.
CCS2 provides AC chargin
The US DOT has notified states that their previously approved plans to
