The ones here in Europe have 3phase connectors and go up to 7kW.

Yes, Europe is pretty fortunate in that respect. They have 2x the power at normal outlets, while US normal outlets are 110v at 15amps.

This means there are some things possible in europe that are underpowered or impossible in the US. Tools like air compressors or garden equipment like electric mowers are smaller.
