Hello folks, I have a 240 volt 60 amp circuit going into my garage. Nema 14-50 plug (female). My question is, if I get a cord with a 14-50 male plug at one end, and a J1772 connector at the other end for the car, will my car charge at 48 amps (80% of my 60 amp circuit)? Or is the charging level set in some other way, requiring a $500+ purchase of a JuiceBox or HPWC or similar?
Right now I use the charging cable that came with the car and a Tesla Nema 14-50 adapter. It charges at 32 amps, and I am guessing the circuitry in the charging cable limits it to that?
Hoping it's just a matter of the right wire and connectors. Also, if that is indeed the case, anyone know where to get one? I only see J1772 to Nema 14-50 female plugs online. I need to plug into a female receptable, so I need a 14-50 male on one end of the cable.
Many thanks.
