Hey guys, So I am going to receive my car today and I'm excited. I went and ordered the Tesla Wall Connector and it arrived today. I am trying to follow all the instructions in the manual. I bought a double pole 60 amp circuit breaker for my panel. As for the wiring, I was reading another thread on this forum about 4 gauge being safer? I remember reading the poster saying too much heat or voltage was dissipating with the 6 gauge. So do I get 4 gauge to be safe or will I be okay with 6 gauge that's rated at 90c.
My most concerning question was that in that manual it states
"Grounding Connections
Wall Connector must have a ground path back to the main equipment earthing point on site. Without a proper ground connection, the Wall Connector will fault during a ground assurance test. Equipment grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment grounding terminal in the wirebox. Install a ground (PE) wire sized according to local electrical code."
I'm not entirely sure what this means. Does this mean I have to do more than just the attaching 2 hot and 1 ground to my main panel and the wall connector? Sorry if they're obvious answers.
