Would the 400v 3 phase model work on 480v 3 phase?
In my area of the US anyway we have 2 common 3 phase power(both only in commercial buildings, 3 phase in a residential home is unheard of) one is 120v on each leg or 208v between any 2 of the 3 legs, the other is 277v on each leg or 480v between any 2 of the 3 legs.
I might be interested in a EVSE that could use either 277 or 480v as one of the commercial buildings I work in has such power. Where I'd charge has a nice 60a 480v unused circuit but for 208v power(what my EVSE uses) it only has a 20a circuit, so I'm basically restricted to ~19a for short term use :( Sure would be nice to be able to tap into that 60a 480v three phase power :p

You're not going to get much more than that into a Leaf, anyway, except via CHAdeMO.

The 6.6/6.0 kw charger can use 27.5 amps, maybe a touch more.
 
Yes I figure about 10% more per hour and I'm generally only at that somewhat distant location(60 miles RT) for an hour or so, so every extra % gained is a real plus, especially in the cold winter when 60 miles or less is a common range for my '13 Leaf with the 6.6kw charger.
Agree for longer charging times the 10% or so gained wouldn't be a big deal :)
