10-30 Receptacle Upgrade

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
I recently did a DIY 10-30 240V Receptacle upgrade. Standard home dryer receptacle is "residential" grade, designed for sustained use of around 2-3 hours. Upgrade is the "industrial" grade, designed for much longer, sustained use.

Upgrade to Hubble HBL9350 receptacle. Current wiring is about a 50 foot run of 8 AWG Aluminum. Did 3 x 5" pigtails of 10 AWG stranded copper wiring. Used Ideal Twister 2-Pack Purple Al/Cu Wire Connectors.

Added 1.5" outlet two gang box extender which gave me more room.

As before, have 24A charging at around 15-17 miles charge per hour but with a receptacle that can handle longer sustained charging.
