It's like this: There's BEST, Worst, and Cost-Effective.
When one has a Tesla, the BEST is when one has a dedicated 60A circuit going to a Tesla Wall Connector. Wonderful: One gets 48A (80% of 60A) of charging current, a charging rate of around 45 miles of charge per hour, and the Wall Connector is around, what, $350 these days. There's the cost of the breakers, running the feed from the breaker panel to the TWC, and all that. If one is starting in a greenfield situation (i.e., there's no other 240 VAC circuits near the car) this is probably the most cost effective way of doing something.
But the OP
already has a 240 VAC, 50A socket with, presumably, a dedicated 50A breaker in a box somewhere.
The Worst ways to do any of this:
- Violate code by creating just kinda wiring up a second outlet, in parallel with the first, and Pinky-Swear never to connect both cars at the same time. There's this thing: Power dissipation in resistive wires goes as I*I*R. That's Power, as in Heat. Get Too Much Heat and Things Catch Afire, and I am NOT joking. Wire gauges are selected via tables that are, essentially, talking about how much heat those wires are going to generate and how much thermal insulation around those wires (from the insulation, from the insulation in the wall, and so on) is going to result in those wires getting hot enough to char other stuff and, eventually, burning down the house. The standards in the NEC are there for a reason. And a building inspector who found that somebody had done something like this would probably faint dead away. When he/she came to, there would be !$#@! to pay, and for good reason.
- Grab a cutesy little current sharing widget from a manufacturer who may or may not be around 15 years from now that, electronically, figures out that there's Too Much Load and cuts one load or the other out of the circuit. Cute. It Works. But it is, to my mind, a single point of failure with moving parts upon one is depending not to develop a failure that Burns The House Down. I'm sorry: I'm a solid believer in the simple-stupid theory: If it's dead simple and dead stupid and can't fail because it's both of those, then that's an attractive option. Yes: Gen 2 Tesla Wall Connectors will share a single 60A circuit. But, interestingly, Tesla doesn't really sell those much, any more.
Now, Cost Effective. The OP has a 240 VAC, 50A, NEMA14-50 socket in the wall, presumably built to code, and it's Paid For. Changing something, like putting in heavier wire, or adding a second circuit, is going to cost a minimum of $200, more likely $500, and maybe over $1000, especially if a second circuit is added. And.. for what?
As it happens, the house over here has two Teslas in it, a 2018 M3 and a 2021 MY. When the 2018 M3 went in, I went ahead and got a 60A circuit and a Tesla Gen 2 Wall Connector installed; luckily, the house breaker panel is in the garage. At this time, the SO and I have never had an issue where both cars needed charging at the same time. Now, that's us: If one is driving 200 miles a day, then daily charging would be in one's future. We're well less than 100 miles a day, so a car needs charging once or twice a week. With that, just uncoiling the cable from the WC and plugging in $RANDOM car is no great shakes.
The basic solution: Just plug in
one wall connector. Either: use the one that came with the Leaf and use the J1772-to-Tesla adapter that comes with the M3, as long as the cable will reach both cars; get a J1772-based wall connector with a long cable that (if it's not hard) can do 40A that can do both cars with the aforementioned Tesla adapter; or get a Tesla Wall Connector with the long cable and use whatever adapter there is on the open market that can go from a Tesla cable end to the Leaf socket. The first is cheapest; #2 and #3 are probably around the same cost.
And you'll stop plugging things in and out of that NEMA14-50 socket. Plug something in and leave it that way.
