For most single-phase Queensland homes, Glenn recommends the 20A primary tariff connection (4.6kW). No Ergon approvals, no relay charges, no waiting — and your power is always available with no controlled-load interruptions. For the average commuter doing 40–80km daily, overnight charging tops you up with plenty to spare.
It's worth knowing that most cars won't always draw the full 32A anyway — actual speed depends on state of charge, vehicle settings, and temperature. The real-world difference between 20A and 32A is often smaller than it looks on paper. For 32A setups with active management, Ergon charges will apply.
Three-phase customers can run a 32A charger at 22kW without any Ergon involvement — they only require notification above 40 amps per phase. Glenn assesses every property individually and recommends the connection that genuinely suits your situation.
