Ordered my Model Y in January 2022. Just had multiple email exchanges today with my Tesla sales guy in the greater Seattle area about whether they would honor their representation at the time of the order that the charging cable was included. Response I got back was that he is as confused as...

Can you give me a link that documents this, please?

Wait and see if it comes with the car? and if it doesn't, what then?

1. What is SA? 2. Can you please document your statement? 3. Does "charger" mean there will be a cable included?

jcanoe- Thanks. I did look for other manufacturers offering industrial grade NEMA 14-30, but didn't find much. And, interestingly, I checked the Leviton part number that was on the package at Home Depot, and it's the same as the one in your link (278-S00). The photo of it in the link I...

I know there is a lot of discussion about industrial quality NEMA receptacles for those who are charging at 50 amps, but I'm only going to have a 30 amp circuit and haven't found much info on distinctions for NEMA 14-30 receptacles. I have found a Leviton brand one at Home Depot that is...

I have an existing 30A 240V circuit (3 wire, with ground) in my garage that is no longer being used for anything else, and I could re-route the cable and receptacle NEMA 14-30) to a more convenient location for charging my Model Y. I could also free up space in my breaker box for a new double...

Sophias_dad- After I read your post I did some reading up on the GFCI requirement and it looks like it may only apply to higher amp circuits, like 50 amps. Do you know if that is so? I generally am safety-minded and wouldn't have a problem with putting in a GFCI breaker even if not required...

Thanks. I'll think about that Square D switch, but it is a bit more expensive than I was hoping. I agree with you on putting in another circuit, but right now almost all of the breakers in my panel are already tandem. It's not overloaded, but the electrician who wired it put in a lot of...

I'm currently scheduled to get my Model Y in the May-June 2022 timeframe and am assessing my at-home charging options. I'm retired and don't do daily long drives, so overnight charging on the NEMA 6-20 receptacle I already have installed in my garage is totally adequate for my needs. However...
