yes, hehe, crazycurrents! 

Due to the crazylow voltages mainly, and a lot of headroom on the main fuses?

So what is the normal house consumption/year ?
 (without the EV-charging )

for older(1700-1900 almost and non-insulated houses) I guess it is normally 
about 15-25 000 kwh/year

New houses can be almost energy neutral,  :-)
But the rules still allows a lot net consumption

I think the modern building rules allows a private house or an apartment 
building to consume maximum 50-45 kwh/m2 / year. (South Sweden, electric 
heating)
