Preparing the install of my Nema 14-50 charging setup before I physically begin the process of getting a PM3 which has now been pushed back to 8-10 weeks since production is beginning overseas so I have a little time but I want to show everyone the setup of what im buying and seeing if maybe what im buying is overkill. I am no electrician but I am good with electrical.
Will be using Tesla's Wall Connector Gloss Black Wall Connector for its 11.5KW setup although I have looked I considered https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07SHK7XP7/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_2?smid=A1805L3JBRFYZK&th=1.
My setup is below and my question is and I am sure I could just google this but if Im not mistaken a 60amp breaker runs 48 max output on the wall connector but the breaker itself is rated at a max of 55amps correct? The wiring ill be using im not sure if I should be getting 6/4 gauge wiring or if i should get 4/4 gauge.. I am still determining the length I would need 50' or 100' but the price difference between them both is double. My breaker is in the basement pretty much mounted on the corner and my driveway is on the other opposite side of the box I feel comfortable with 50FT but what I am asking is do I go 4 Gauge or 6 gauge.
