Dude, you're dealing with CoV now. Of course you are going to get 3-phase service bcos it is possible and feasible to get it. How can you use your experience in dealing with CoV, a decidedly urban area, as your reason that remote and rural charging locations must also use 3-phase service?

They are literally 2 different beasts that should be served by 2 totally different solutions.

People on these Tesla forums who build these sites are also saying that any station with 6-8 stalls require a 500KVA+ transformer, which is only supplied by 3 phase, at least in BC.

The theory may say one thing, but I implore you to find a charging site with more than 1 charger that’s installed by a municipality that uses single phase.

Won’t get into it too deep but I’m dealing with CoV on a few sites and there isn’t a single one using a single phase service.
