I know its painfully expensive and unfair, but perhaps a proper installation of a 240V EVSE by an electrician after proper city inspections would reduce some of the blame when these things happen. Note this one was a professional installation.
And it still doesn't appear to help, does it?
So would hiring a professional race car driver to safely drive your kids to school be a wise option? That way you have less blame when there's an accident.
Nothing "reduces" blame in the US, anyone can sue you for anything, then you still have to go into court and defend yourself.
Where does one stop at the liability reduction game? Maybe it's safer to eschew all forms of energy and go off-grid.
