I just moved, and I'm dealing with getting a charging circuit in my new garage.
In my old house, I had a circuit installed for powering my main panel with a gasoline generator. (Properly done, with an interlock on the main panel to avoid electrocuting linemen, and an external breaker.)
In my new house, the 14/50 outlet for the car is in a location that would be convenient for using a generator in an emergency. Anybody know if there is a safe, compliant way to use the same circuit for both purposes?
I imagine you could achieve it physically by making a Very Dangerous cable that had a live male 14/50 connector coming out of the generator, but I'm looking for a correct solution, not an iffy kludge.
