You seem to be confusing a lot of terminology. DC charging is a separate thing from L1-L3, though some people mistakenly describe DC charging as "L3". L1 = sin

You seem to be confusing a lot of terminology. DC charging is a separate thing from L1-L3, though some people mistakenly describe DC charging as "L3".
L1 = single phase 120V power. People typically think of common household outlets, which will be limited to 12A or 16A, but it could also be a TT-30 at 24A.
L2 = Split phase 240V. Typical amperages are 32 and up, but lower is possible with some cars and higher is common. Eg, the F-150 Lightning can charge at 80A.
L3 (very uncommon) = 3 Phase AC at up to 400A - Could be >300KW. I've never seen this.
