Im just rebuilding my own house from the last century. You as a landlord did not upgrade your eletrical system and the current one is probably held together by straws ;)

The title should be "what? You do really need a pesky netural wire for EV charging, who knew"?

There are ways to fake a neutral wire for EV charging. Not recommending it, but I found out how to do it when learning how to charge my EVs using an inexpensive pure sine wave inverter (using the 12V system of the other EV or some other vehicle in case I needed a little charge to get to the nearest charging station).
