Hi Everyone
FIrst time tesla customer here (almost).
I am taking delivery of my model 3 next week and I am having some trouble with installing Tesla charging at my home which I rent. The option that I am considering is to use the dryer plug (10-30 or 14-30 adapter) to charge the Model 3.
I had an electrician come in and assess my apartment for this type of charging. He said that my main breaker was only rated at 100A. Charging a Tesla (instead of running the dryer) should be fine given my max usage in the past year. I am a little concerned about this... Have any of you had this type of an issue where home charging a Model 3 would put you close to the max amperage on your home circuit?
I'd love to hear what you think! If I cant charge at home, I am in big trouble and may have to return the Model 3. I commute 80 miles a day.
