    You're doing great work. I am going out on my own soon as an electrician here in VA. I'v been following you for years now.

    Great job of demonstrating what details an electrician needs to know for bidding. Translation from electrospeak to English was excellent as well.

    Level 1 chargers are 120V, 16A (Typically). They're hooked up on 20A Circuits.
    Level 2 are 240V and can range from 15A to 80A (32A (on 40A Circuit)Being the most common). (Although 40A on 50A Circuit is becoming more and more popular).
    Level 3 are High DC Chargers, Won't find\install in a home require 400V+ typically.

    Question? My main panel is 125’ away were I want to install my Tesla wall charger. What size wire do I need to run? Can I get away with #6 or do I have to go with #4 because of voltage drop?

    There is no code that states a conduit is needed to feed the garage panel

    So the panel is (back) fed through that 2P 60 AMP breaker top left with #6 NM in a conduit? What are the goofy little wires coming off the main lugs running (with no OCPD) then?

      Probably the surge protector (SPD.) The only other 2-poles I see are 40/30 amp, and usually those Square D HEPDs call for 20A OCP breakers or they can tie right into the lugs. They also have 2 blacks, a white and a green, where for NM or conduit, you'd usually use red or in this case, they liked blue!?

    Which code states that you have to bring #10 to a detached garage?

    • @benefactionhindrance
      @benefactionhindrance 2 года назад

      NEC

    • @Fazer07
      @Fazer07 2 года назад

      210.11(C)(4) says you only need a 20 amp 120 volt branch circuit to a detached garage.

    Is there a social media account or somewhere I can direct message you. I have a question but I think it would be best not to ask in the comments.
