US Porsche Macan 4 EV Tripping Breaker on 110 outlet

[AaranZombot]

Just plugged in my new Macan to the same 110 outlet that I charged my Tesla (with no issues). It won't charge at all and immediately trips the GFI outlet. Any suggestions? Why would this be different than the Tesla 110 charging?

If it’s anything like the Taycan the car is simply pulling as much power as it can hence tripping the circuit. You have to use the wall charger itself to set the available current to match the breaker.

in the Taycan at least there is no way of setting the maximum current draw

If I’m charging off an outlet 220 or 110 I always look at the breaker max for that circuit and set my portable charger to draw a couple of amps below that to ensure that it doesn’t trip and then stop charger while I’m asleep.

not enough info

what EV charger are you using
what power supply cable/plug are you using on the EVSE
and what does the car show inside the car before the breaker trips

I am also curious what is the best and most versatile home charging solution for the Macan.

the one that came with the car
the standard 110
the shows the green lights like it is starting to charge and then the GFI outlet breaker pops and then the screen says "error cannot charge"

I have an 11kw ChargePoint solution at home which has been bulletproof for the last 3 years and when I’m traveling I use a Muetux which has proven to be very versatile and good with all sorts of 110 and 220 outlets because you set the current draw at a range of levels.
