Hello SIRs, I Have set up a single switch 2 from fibaro on an electrical outlet. Works good for a light BUT i am using this to set up a flow to charge my car with the following ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/1/d/1deedc053cd8e383c61be6c8abe3af666d77f0d0.jpeg) As soon as the flow starts it switches the outlet ON but then the problem is i keep getting a TURN OFF by FIBARO after 2 or 3 minutes… ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/8/4/84a437f5df1bb1266095041c11495c2f4cf8ac23.png) Any idea why it s getting turned OFF by Fibaro ?? ---

Maybe a security measure to prevent overloading? I can imagine your car charger uses much more power then the Fibaro can manage safely? ---

True that @Jo_San. @mattrix: Is the pic from your car charger? It uses 10A max. What are the specs of the fibaro plug? I recommend at least a 16A capable plug, NOT a 10A version. ---

A lot of webshops advertise the single switch 2 as capable of handling 2500W but it seems that it isn’t (or at least not for all load types and only for a short time). ---

Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge. I think you are right. I will try another switch. Have a great day ! ---

Get this one mate: [Heavy duty Z-Wave switch for indoors & outdoors](https://aeotec.com/outdoor-z-wave-switch/) It can handle 40A, it works fine with my Tesla.
