One embodiment provides a method of load shedding including receiving, at an electronic processor of an EV charger, an indication of an amount of current flowing through a main switchboard connected to the EV charger and determining, with the electronic processor, whether the amount of current exceeds a predetermined threshold. The method also includes reducing, using the electronic processor, a charge rating of the EV charger when the amount of current exceeds the predetermined threshold.
