Ground wire for #6 conductors actually only needs to be #10, MUCH smaller than #6.

Your picture with the red star is clearly not of the same box as the picture you started with. Indeed, thanks to google image search, I've found you asked basically all the same questions almost exactly a year ago in Gen 3 Wall Connector Installation Advice and we already answered them in...

If you truly stomp on it it is still MUCH slower. Like decent Honda Accord slower.

You should really get an electrician. You have no hope whatsoever of following the instructions regarding routing given the wire you have available, you need something north of a FOOT of wiring inside the base. NMB wiring is a sheath enclosing individual insulated(black, red, white) and bare...

The bottom screws won't have any affect on that play(at the top). Removing the faceplate and adding a layer or two of tape(probably electrical tape) to the tangs that engage the top of the faceplate should fix it.

240 at 90% would be 266 at 100% (240/0.9) That's 14% degradation. Worse than average, but less than half what you need before Tesla will do anything. Maybe describe your mileage and charge habits.

Not clear why the last comment garnered a 'dislike' from @Resist . I kinda hate chill mode, and have enough control over my right foot to have effective-chill mode when I want it, whilst also having gobs of acceleration when I >need<it. Note the latter is seldom needed, but I'd feel like such a...

Not if you don't use the extra acceleration afforded by 'standard'. Even if you do, the difference should be pretty small.

Gen3 HPWC disassembly, with overheating issues explained! shows that its not supposed to be sealed or water tight. I've checked the two Gen3's I have in stock, and both have a little faceplate play. One is somewhat worse than the other.

You should easily be able to tell if your solar system has enough excess capacity to charge your car. My impression is that it will NOT. 300km is 186 miles. That 186 miles you want to recharge will be 186 times 333 wh/mi(roughly, after all vampire losses and such), or 62kwh. Does your current...

Nothing to worry about.

Do you have (or have you ever had) any third party apps on your phone that might be constantly/repeatedly waking up your car remotely?

I'm surprised it moves that much, but you probably shouldn't worry about it. There's another layer of plastic/seal under there that makes the innards >almost< watertight. If it really bothers you, you could probably fix it by taking the HPWC body off the wall and unscrewing the faceplate(two...

Any error messages? Is the credit card associated with the account in good standing and unexpired?

Just FYI, this is usually one of the things you figure out BEFORE you drive home with your new EV. No, you can't just add a new 6-20 outlet to that circuit. All of the available power is going to the hot water heater. Even if it wasn't, EV circuits must be dedicated to only charging the EV, not...
