Charger installation saying I need a load balancer

[stef1808]

I’m installing a 22kwh wallbox and now being told I need a load balancer
Researching more it seems it’s only really necessary for commercial buildings / retail parks with multiple chargers etc
Is it necessary as it’s also delaying the installation which is a problem.

I think we need more info. A 22 kW charger (not kwH!) would require 3-phase, do you have 3-phase to the house? What fuses do you have on each phase? Who is asking you to install the load balancer, the installer or the DNO?

I have 3 phase at home 60/400 on the fuse box. (Amps/volts i assume) planing to charger a Tesla Scwhich I believe can charge up to 16.6kW

The installer is asking for the balancer but since asking to confirm if I actually need it has gone quiet.
