16A or 32A? Single or three-phase? Which cable? Is it safe? — we answer all of it with a simple wizard that gives a realistic Gulf home-charging estimate, always reminding you to use a licensed electrician.
Home charging is always AC through a Type 2 connector — the Gulf standard. Your car has an onboard charger that caps how fast it accepts AC: usually 7 or 11 kW, some up to 22 kW. Even with a beefier circuit, the car never takes more than its onboard charger allows. DC fast charging (via CCS2) is a different thing entirely and isn't available at home.
Single-phase · 32A
Most people — daily city driving
Three-phase · 16A
Heavy drivers or two cars at home
Three-phase · 32A
*Most cars accept only 11 kW on AC
Answer 4 quick questions for a realistic estimate — not formal electrical advice.
Informational — long runs affect cable size.
7 kW wall box (single-phase 32A)
A 32A circuit typically needs around 6mm² copper with a properly rated breaker and earthing — long runs may need a larger size. Final sizing is the licensed electrician's job.
We recommend a 7 kW wall box (single-phase 32A). You'll get about 6.8 kW delivered (~369 km overnight). Slow but safe — fine for light daily use; consider upgrading the circuit if you drive long distances. ⚠️ A licensed electrician must handle installation and inspection.
Use a licensed electrician for installation and inspection. These numbers are planning estimates only — not a substitute for a real assessment of your panel, earthing, and breaker.
Connect with a certified home-charger installer in your area for assessment and safe installation.
