Both the Tesla Wall Connector (Gen 3) (7.4kW / 22kW) and Rolec Zura (7.4kW / 22kW) support three-phase charging, offering up to 22kW on a three-phase supply. On a standard UK single-phase supply, both deliver around 7kW — more than enough for overnight charging.

On a standard UK single-phase supply, both will charge a Tesla Model 3 Long Range (75kWh battery) from 20% to 80% in approximately 5–6 hours overnight. Even a Tesla Model Y with its larger battery completes a typical daily top-up well within an overnight window. For the vast majority of UK Tesla owners, single-phase 7kW charging is more than sufficient — you'll wake up to a full battery every morning.

The Tesla Wall Connector (Gen 3) offers: Tesla app integration, Scheduled charging, Power sharing (up to 6 units), Wi-Fi connected, OTA updates. The Rolec Zura offers: Monta app (3 years included), Charge scheduling and price-based smart charging, 4G LTE + Wi-Fi + Ethernet, Dynamic load balancing (CT clamp included on single-phase), MID Class 1 meter, RFID / NFC reader, OCPP 1.6J, PEN fault detection (TruePEN), Single or dual outlet; upgradeable later.

Breaking these down by category: for connectivity, the Tesla Wall Connector (Gen 3) uses Wi-Fi connected, while the Rolec Zura uses 4G LTE + Wi-Fi + Ethernet. For energy management, the Tesla Wall Connector (Gen 3) provides Power sharing (up to 6 units), compared to the Rolec Zura's Dynamic load balancing (CT clamp included on single-phase).

The Rolec Zura supports solar integration, allowing you to divert surplus solar energy to charge your Tesla. The Tesla Wall Connector (Gen 3) does not have built-in solar diverting. If you have solar panels (or plan to install them), this is a significant advantage for the Rolec Zura.

The Rolec Zura supports solar diversion through its energy management system. This means it can dynamically adjust the charge rate to match your available solar surplus.
