Agree with
@HankLloydRight, but unless you will be using the 14-50 for something other than your EV (which BTW you shouldn't) then consider installing a Wall Connector on a 60A circuit instead. In the case of a 14-50, if your electrician knows what they are doing, they will install a
commercial grade 14-50 outlet ($80+) and a GFIC breaker ($!00+), and you will need to buy a 14-50 adapter for the mobile connector ($45) and will want some sort of cable management system ($35), which brings your parts total to $260, plus a markup by the electrician. On the other hand the Wall Connector with a standard breaker is about $560, which is $300 more. Plus wiring in both cases. So what do you get for that extra $300
- You can charge at 48 Amps instead of 32 (32 is the internal limit for the mobile connector)
- The mobile connector that came with the car can stay in the car - it will not be forgotten when needed
- If you add a 2nd Wall Connector in the future, power sharing is already build it
- The Wall Connector receives firmware updates. Item 3 was just such a update
There is nothing wrong with the 14-50 approach! Just suggesting you consider your options. BTW, if you decide you do not want to spend the extra $300, then consider installing a 6-50 outlet instead of the 14-50 as this will save you some money on wiring. The 14-50 is a 120/240v plug and requires 3-conductors, the 6-50 is a 240v only plug and requires 2-conductors. EV chargers are 240v so unless you have a special need, running the extra wire is a waste of money.
