Hi,
With a "granny" charge point, you can just have an extension socket going from your indoor house plug mains and charge your vehicle like that.
But if you have a 16A + charger then you need a expensive type B RCD to be installed....which has DC 6mA and 30mA imbalance detection.
Why the difference?.....why no RCD needed with the granny charger?
