System Overview
Kingston Quarter utilizes a sustainable, load-managed EV charging solution provided by ReadySteadyPlug (RSP). The system is designed for Level 1 Charging (15-AMP), allowing residents to charge vehicles overnight without overstressing the building's electrical backbone.
All infrastructure within the car park is dynamic, meaning the system automatically adjusts charging rates based on the building's total energy demand.

Charging Information
The system utilizes 15-AMP power points, providing a charging rate of 3.2 kW. This is ideal for overnight charging.
Practical Implications
- Charging Rate: Approximately 20 km of range per hour of charging.
- Weekly Usage: For a vehicle driven 210 km/week, roughly 10.6 hours of charging is required.
- Load Management: The system may cycle power during periods of extreme building-wide demand (e.g., peak AC usage on hot days) to protect the building's switchboard.
- Connectivity: The system requires a network connection to initiate. Due to limited mobile reception in the basement, you may need to initiate the session via the app while within mobile range.
