Stupidly my house has 120/208V power. My 4S is in a container mid-Atlantic so I have a few weeks to get everything in order . The first thing I see in the "Porsche Mobile Charger Connect" manual is that it is only to be used with one phase... hmm, ok so then I check in the "Porsche Wall Charger Connect" manual and on page 15 it clearly states the charger is a 1 phase device and shouldn't be connected to a 3 phase source before detailing how to connect it to a 3 phase source?!? Er ok. The wall charger is just a box with a mobile charger in it right?
Now, my garage has a 14/50 socket on a 50A breaker with L1 at 120V to N, L2 at 120V to N and L1 to L2 at 208V (so presumably 120degrees apart). Can I plug the Mobile charger into that with the appropriate 14/50 pigtail?
Appreciate there are several threads on the subject but I still can't find an answer. Also, "ask your electrician" down here in the Caribbean is, let's say, a bit hit and miss and will be a lot easier if I have a clue what I'm asking about first! Many thanks all.
