If it's a 13A socket, then its a 13A socket, irrespective of where it is installed. If the gadget that is plugged into the 13A socket has a 13A plug, that's it, isn't it? Am I missing something??

Rolec for example, have a '13amp socket' Mode 2 charger 10amp supply. 10amp supplies are not covered in Section 722. This, I've read provides suitable charging overnight.

There also a Mode 3 charger 16amp supply, which provides a fast charging of 2 to 3 hrs. Anything above 10amps is covered by 722.

Not knowing the exact details, I quickly looked at the Mercs web site for a electric B Class. Their recommendation, is to install a 3.6kw Chargemaster Homecharge.

I was just pointing it out to the OP, that some of the chargers are not just a 13amp socket, and needs to be sure of what he's being asked to install.
