Installed a 40amp circuit for the EVs after charging a PHEV for 5 years and a BEV truck for almost a year on a single 15amp circuit.
50ft x 8 AWG x 4 wires isn’t cheap ($1.32/ft with tax), plus conduit, straps, breaker, wet location boxes and outlet cover and the extra cost for an EV rated outlet.
Wasn’t room between the post and the garage door king stud for a flush mount box, oh well.
I’ll pay the electrician for a proper hard-wired charger when we upgrade service and run it from the main panel instead.
77.4kwh iirc. The car doesn’t get a ton of miles every day, probably no more than 8kwh on average. It’s only when there’s a trip planned that requires a full charge do I bump up the charger power limits to be ready in time.
Practical, sounds good
