I have had three chargers installed at three different homes, each quite different. The first was a Tesla v2 with a second meter and breaker box with routing through the attic. The main costs were hardware, wire and the labor to install everything. The other two were J1772 units plugged into NEMA 14-50 receptacles. Keep in mind that the circuit limit to 50 amps when using a plug means your charger can only pull 40 amps. Also, because charging usually takes over 3 hours the breaker, cable and receptacle should be rated for CONTINUOUS use. These components have been known to experience thermal events when builder grade from a big box retailer is used. Hard wired direct from breaker to charger is better. Good overview!!!

Wow! That’s a lot of chargers! Glad you enjoyed the video. What was your experience with the cost/convenience comparison of being able to unplug and relocate the charging cable but with the additional costs of getting a continuous rated outlet and the installation of that outlet?

That is insane run. In NJ, to run something like yours will cost easy 1500-2000, not including the charger. I am lucky to have my 200A panel in my garage, by the garage door. Going to get the same charger, hardwired ONLY. Already doing it, might as well full power.

For DIY as long as its on your own home in most of the US you can do you or own work, just make sure you check permit requirements in your area

@@chargehanger Interesting concept. How do you think it could work with my wall if I want to charge at two common spots?
