Hey folks - I'm waiting on my model S to be delivered so figured I'd prep by getting the nema 14-50 outlet installed ahead of time. I called several electricians but it appears that they strategy for installing is inconsistent.
I have a main panel that has a 125A breaker that feeds to subpanel, and a 40A for AC. 2 electricians said they could install a 50/40 quad breaker over the AC breaker, while a few other said they could not and had to pull from the subpanel. Does anyone know why some would suggest it but others don't?
Attached are some pics of the main panel and subpanel. Note that I plan to charge only at night when family is sleeping with low load on the power supply.
