Gotcha. Over here they'll spread 22 kW over 3-phases @ 32A per phase.

Domestically here the top rate on single phase is 7kW which is typically on either a 32A or 40A breaker. Apologies for the thread diversion.
no it's all good!!!

19.2 kW chargers are not even really a thing - most public charging you're lucky for 30 amps @ 208V (6 kW) - so not really a recommended configuration in my opinion for North American - only get it if you're installing a big EVSE in your home/work - cause you aren't encountering these suckers when away from home…

many many residential homes in US have 100/125 amps for the ENTIRE house - so a 100/80 amp dedicated EV charging circuit is either impractical or super expensive to install

so most people end up with a 240V 30/40/50 home EV setup. which is more than sufficient.
