I would hazard that the small switch-mode power supply inside the EVSE charging ’brick’ is universal. You may want to ask this guy: http://evseupgrade.com/?main_page=product_info&products_id=28
How much will recertification cost? If you’re going to have to certify either way, a more sensible option would be to find a UK or European charge cable to use. Brits use 230V +/- 10 percent at 50 hz. Our charge cables with factory LEAFs were set to charge at 13 amps, 240-volts. I actually have a portable charging cable in my garage here in the U.S., but it’d be of no use to you I suspect even though ti’s at 240 volts as it’s set to make use of European style Mennekes connectors. I know Nissan no-longer sells the LEAF in NZ: but a similar cable from a Mitsubishi garage should work. (The Outlander PHEV uses the same charging cable as a LEAF). So in order of ease: Buy an Outlander PHEV cable. Buy a cable from Europe, put on a new plug and recertify.
