Current charging limit

[StuartT]

Does anyone know what this control does? Does it only apply to AC charging? What should I have it set at?
Thanks

It limits the charging rate for that charge session only if you choose a value below Maximum. Next time you start the car the setting should reset and default to Maximum.

And yes - AC charging only. If you have a 7kW wall box then you want it at maximum anyway. If you're using the MG granny cable then that regulates the maximum current anyway (10A max) so there's no point in changing the setting (unless you're concerned about the quality of the wall socket/wiring behind it). In other scenarios then you need to think about whether making a change is warranted.

Only AC
Set it according to the max your power installation can handle (to avoid fire in your house)

Many thanks both ?

I have an automation which drops the charge rate back if necessary to ensure our supply circuit does not overload.
