Hello, I just purchased a Model Y and have been researching charging options. I’m very new to the electrical charging world and my research has left me more confused than before. I would appreciate your advice on this subject.
I found that my utility company is offering a rebate to install a ChargePoint charger, but it must be hardwired starting May 1st. If this is the case, do I need to install the NEMA 6-50 or 14-50 outlet? Or does the charger install directly to the electrical panel via wires? They sell two models (6-50 and 14-50), but does the type matter if it is hardwired? Is it possible to remove the hardwiring if I end up moving? If so, how difficult is it?
If anyone is in the Portland, OR region, I would appreciate any electrician recommendations.
Thank you in advance for your advice!
