I think it's worth seeing what Condo association says about upgrading your service to see about the cost but charing at 24A should be ok for most of the time. If it's cold and you come home empty and need to turn around the next morning you should still have enough range to get to work and back.Thanks everyone for the replies.
My daily commute will not exceed 50-60 miles total so it sounds like the 30 Amp circuit will be fine. I was concerned because I will also be doing several long trips a year (~350 miles one way MA to PA) and was worried about charging for work when I return.
My last questions:
1) Any specific outlet I should request from the electrician?
2) Can I buy an extra cable from Tesla or should I get it from another place? (I prefer to keep the charging cable connected at home and have one in the car for travel charging).
Thanks again for all the advice!
Maybe get a second opinion from another electrician. Are they sure you can't put in a 14-50 outlet? It's very unlikely you'd be running your stove in the middle of the night. Could could set your car to charge at midnight with a 14-50 and have the car almost charge full if it were empty.
