Hey All,
I have a new HWPC running on a 60 amp breaker, 6 guage THHN wire. Today i was in the garage and grabbed the conduit and noticed it was really warm. I decided to go check on the breaker and it was very hot too the touch, measured the temp with a cheap IR thermometer at 142F. It's only getting hot when my M3 LR is pulling the full 48 amps. Does anyone elses HWPC/Conduit and Breaker get really hot when the car is charging at full speed?
