I don't see anything particularly wrong, but many things missing, here are a few:So I decided to create a page summarizing this ampacity stuff and a few other things for EVSE installs on my charging.us web site. Check it out if you have time and let me know if I got anything wrong or missed something. Thanks!
- GFCI required in most jurisdictions for receptacles (NEC 2017+).
- No mention or discussion of using EMT tradecraft, a very common wiring technique -- more common than PVC, at least in my locale. (Also perhaps mention rigid conduit and FMC?)
- Definitely worth adding a 30A circuit row to your table, as this is quite common. Maybe even 20 and 15 for good measure.
- Probably worth mentioning in the tradecraft that you must use listed couplers and accessories (like straps) for the type you're using (i.e. no using EMT straps for MC unless double-listed). I've seen this mistake very frequently.
- Should have a chart for ground wire gauge sizing (e.g. #10 THHN is good for up to a 60A circuit -- no need to pull a #6 for that), and also when conduit can be used for ground.
