So my Wall Connector is temporarily down while the handle or plug is being repaired. I am going to have my electrician install a Nema 14-50 outlet next to the hard-wired Wall Connector. So in the future, if the Wall Connector is inoperable for any reason, I have the Nema 14-50 as a backup.
My question is this. I do not plan on using the Wall Connector and the Nema 14-50 outlet at the same time. I would only use the outlet if the Wall Connector is down. Is there some sort of device my electrician can set up so that the Wall Connector and the 14-50 outlet use the same electrical line from the breaker box, kind of like a Y switch? I would want a set up that is safe and is in accordance with building codes.
I welcome any thoughts or suggestions.
Thank you,
