Hello my Tesla technical experts.
I received my Model 3 on 12/31 and am able to charge for free at work. The problem is work is 38 miles from my house, so I need a solution to charge at home besides the super slow 120v option.
I want to leverage my dryer outlet but am confused by how the circuit breakers are set up in my breaker box. I show that two 30 amp breakers (not double-pole) are assigned to the dryer. A similar setup on my AC and Range circuit breakers. I assume max amps is based on each breaker, not the combined total of both?
Either way, I know I need to stay at 70% of max amperage, but I am not sure what that max amperage is. I will probably reach out to an electrician, but since I am so naive on this, they could tell me I need an entirely new breaker box and wouldn't know if it's true.
