    Disclaimer: In this video I'm using a 14-50 generator hookup in my garage. This hookup is supposed to push electricity into my house and it is not an open circuit. To enable the circuit for the generator, you need to disconnect power to your entire house. For this video, I bypassed the interlock in my house panel to allow power to flow out to the outlet. I don't recommend you try thing yourself.

      In the video you said your set up had a 60amp circuit which would get you the maximum but then later when you plugged it in you said it was 48amps. Where did the additional 12amps go? Why could you not take advantage of the full 60 in your set up?

    • @iowatesla
      @iowatesla  10 месяцев назад

      The short answer is that you aren’t allowed to pull the full amount for safety reasons. You typically size the to use 80% of the load and that’s 48 Amps.

      You can get a very close mph rate by multiplying your Watts by .00390625 fo Model Y. That factor is varies by model and charge board version. JuiceBox will give you 11.5kWh charge if you want faster. Tesla makes a 20kWh now.

      @suserman7775 Год назад +4

      That question doesn't make sense. How much does it cost you in water to fill a bathtub quickly as opposed to filling it slowly? THE SAME.
      Now with some utilities and plans, the PRICE you pay for electricity varies by time of day. So if your time window to charge cheaply is short, then charging at a high rate may allow you to finish all or most of your charging within the low-price window.
      (also, some chargers can have more losses at different rates, but the difference is small)
      Just as a general answer, my utility charges 13 cents per kWh, and when you factor efficiency losses I'm probably paying about 15 cents. Since my car gets about 3 miles per kWh, and I drive 1000 miles per month, I need 333 kWh per month. So 333 x 0.15 = 50 dollars.

    • @engineeringtheweirdguy2103
      @engineeringtheweirdguy2103 2 года назад

      As a Tesla owner for the last 3 years I had the same concern buying my Tesla. But it took around 6 months to realise it’s actually really easy to find a charge. Even longer commutes only need to charge from 60%-90% overnight. And the average person is at home not using their car for around 14 hours per night.
      I was surprised how many places there are to charge. For example I’ve been on fairly long trips where I’ve stayed at air BnB’s but they always seems to have an outdoor outlet I can sneak a charge from overnight for free. On one occasion I ran a extension cable out under the front door to charge the car. Keep in mind, you can charge in the rain and snow without issue.

    • @iowatesla

      Your location will drive different costs. For me, the Wall Connector plus install was $1000. I got a $500 rebate from my power company. Also got a $300 Federal tax credit when I filed my taxes. Total overall cost was $200. As for cost, I pay $0.13 per kWh. In 8000 miles over 7 months, I consumed 2500 kWh of energy. That works out to about $325 in total cost - or about $45 per month for me.

      @@iowatesla this was perfect. Thanks for the incite and the detailed explanation. I am trying to wait as long as possible before I buy my Tesla because one of the most important features to me is the self driving feature which isn’t even close to being released so I am growing more and more impatient by the day and I’m thinking I just need to bite down and buy it now just so I can enjoy the car and all of its features. I personally would find great use out of the regular wall charger as I own my own business where I do landscaping so I just drive my truck around all day for work with my tools and mulch so it would never need to be charged quickly. However I would probably still install the 3rd option you listed as it would be great if the wife needed to use it often.

    Many people watch car charge videos for tips and how to's. As an electrical guy, do plenty of research.
    Do I need a permit?
    Can the wires from the utility to my house carry that much power? You are essentially adding a second stove/cook top to run for about 10 hours a day. Your house should have been built to carry the electrical loads when built and the wires sized only for what was there at that time. You might need a second power connection to your utility (A second service) or a service up-grade just to charge at some rates.
    The NEC (national electric code), electric building code, may or may not apply to you. It has its own section for car hanging (electric vehicle service equipment) 625 that has many rules for just this hook-up. A big one is the maximum charger rating for circuit sizing. Yes, a 40 Amp charger cannot be reduced down in the charger to fit on a 30 Amp breaker.
    The NEC directs you to the 60 degree Celsius rating for wire sizes in almost all cases. Pick you wire size accordingly.
    Be careful out there. Consider hiring a pro as a consultant at least to get things correct the first time. Re-inspections by building 8nspectors can be expensive and so can the re-work.

      As long as you have a place to charge at home that meets your daily driving needs, I would say there are no downsides. It has the storage of an SUV, the cost to operate that is less expensive than a Prius and is faster than 90% of the cars on the road.

    If you want the convenience of having separate chargers in your Tesla and in your home, it seems the better option is to just buy a second mobile charger. It's hard to justify the extra cost of a wall connector, especially if you already have a 240v outlet in the garage.

Overnight the car would probably be plugged in for about 8-9 hours a night

    • @engineeringtheweirdguy2103
      @engineeringtheweirdguy2103 2 года назад +1

      For suburban driving around 1 hour of driving equates to around 45 miles. For a Model 3 standard range, that’s around 9.5kWh. At 110V, and 15amps, that’s 1.6kW, which would take 6 hours to charge 9.5kWh. So you should be good. Over 8 hours you’d charge the equivalent of 12.5 kWh, which is around 60 miles of driving.

      There are minor differences in energy losses but the short answer is that the costs would be the same. Charging faster could be cheaper if you can take advantage of off peak pricing.

      To install the wall charger, you don't need anything wider than the wall charger itself. It then comes down to cable management. I have mine coiled around the wall connector and there is a space on the right to hook the handle. This is optional. If you coil it below somehow, you can get by with much less space than I have.

    • @ewicky
      @ewicky 2 года назад

      Liz, every house is different, but yes, more commonly an electric clothes dryer is only on a 30A circuit, so it's a NEMA 14-30R. An electric range, which includes oven and cooktop, is typically on a 40 or 50A circuit, either of which would have a NEMA 14-50R. However, kitchens are typically further from the car than laundry.
      I think most EV owners could charge with a 30A circuit and have plenty of charging time left over, no problem.

I ordered my model 3LR and now I’m just thinking of cancelling and losing my $250 deposit. I saw other videos that state that charging at Tesla’s superchargers are expensive. Can anyone advised ?

    • @ewicky
      @ewicky 2 года назад +1

      @@Tun-Tun There are quite a few options. I'll start with the best:
      Hire an electrician to put in a dedicated charger. If you own the townhome, or if you can work with the owner, you may be able to have a dedicated charger or dedicated receptacle installed. Ideal locations would be in the garage (if you have one) or outdoors near the driveway. Ideal would be a Tesla charger, that way you can leave your mobile connector coiled up in the trunk. If you have neither a driveway nor a garage, some people are able to charge with street parking. You would need a receptacle installed on the side of the house, then an extension cord on the 240V side of the Tesla mobile connector. A 30A circuit, such as the NEMA 14-30R or NEMA 6-10R should be fine. If you will be using an extension cord, consider locking connectors instead.
      Not the best:
      You could run a 240V 30A extension cord out the window or through the house, down to your car. The cord would be thick and expensive, like a garden hose. While this solution may work "in a pinch," it is not ideal for daily use. If you are low-milage and only would need to charge 1 or 2 days per week, it might be okay.
      Also not the best:
      120V charging using a ground-level outdoor receptacle. This is only practical if you charge every night and don't drive too much during the day.
      Other things to consider:
      Quick220, which can, in some cases, create 220V (aka 240V) from two circuits joined together. This can just-over double the charging speed.
      "Dryer Buddy Plus Auto": Allows you to semi-permanently wire your charger and your dryer to the same receptacle. The device stops the charging whenever the dryer is actually in use.
      Alternatives to at-home charging:
      If you commute to work daily, consider finding a charging station within walking distance of the office, or ask the office manager if they would consider installing a charger.
      Tesla Supercharging is also an option, but takes longer than filling gas in a gas car. Also, it isn't as low-cost as standard utility rates. Some of the savings of going away from an ICE car would be lost.
      Public charging probably shouldn't even be considered an option unless you live or work very near a good option. Some are free, while others are more expensive per mile than gas.
