I think for me the question is. If you are charging your car on a streetside
charging point, what sort of cable is uses and is there any circumstance
where it can become a trip hazard to a blind person. I remember when
electric cars first came out the idea was mooted of a kind of swing arm at a
high level with the cable on it to drop down past the curb to charge the
car. To me that looks like a vandals paradise, and to leave a cable trailing
is a h/s nightmare for being sued.

Slow chargers are 2Kw - 3Kw. 220Vac
Intermediate chargers are 6Kw - 8Kw. 220Vac.
They use the on board rectifer.

It depends on the size of the on board rectifier in the car,

The fast chargers are DC as the on board rectifier is not big enough.
Around 60Kw.
