Below is what my garage subpanel looks like with my first electric car, a model Y, moving in shortly. I've been staring at it, reading the Wall Connector install docs and scratching my head. As you can observe there is only one blank left, which would allows for a 120v connection via a single pole breaker. My limited understanding of AC electricity suggests that the wiring up WC to this panel would at the very minimum require provisioning a two pole (two phase?) breaker with at least two adjoining empty slots on the panel. Which I don't have here. What are my choices? Bring another line from the main panel way across the house? Extend/upgrade this panel? Jerry rig a dryer splitter and run the line from laundry room into garage?
