No electric car I know of can take 480v at the j1772 port.

How many cars could charge on that circuit and and keep the street lights on?
That was my point. A street light circuit is specified to satisfy the electrical load required to run the street lights. It was not specified to charge an EV at each lamp post. The circuit would need to be upgraded to add chargers.
It could be done but it isn't nearly as simple as installing some chargers.
