Standard wall plug in Netherlands and Germany are fused with 16A (230V) while in UK I believe it is 13A. It is relatively easy to get a 25A 3-phase outlet (400V) for things like power tools or an electric stove cooktop. I was even allowed to install the house wiring and outlet for it, after which

On every trip, (when I have idle time) I survey hotel parking lots and walk in and ask if I can plug in. If nothing else, it is a change to engage them in meaningful education of the value of their existing outlets behind the bushes and suggest they should advertise it! Bob -Original Message

That is exactly why it is a good idea to charge money (per hour) for being connected to a charging station - or simply to park your EV at the charging station. The hotel guest may get a lower rate than outsiders visiting the hotel's charging station (the hotel guest may be given a discount code tha
