Hi, I got a question about installing a new NEMA 14-50.
Currently we dont use the 50 AMPS breaker for the SPA so we are thinking to wire it to NEMA 14-50 outlet.
The panel is 120/240v 1 phase 3 wire panel.
Is NEMA 14-50 require panel that can support 2 hot line with difference phase to be install?
I was shopping around for new 50a breaker on amazon but found the review said it won't work with Tesla becasue
"Will not work for a NEMA 14-50 outlet to charge a Tesla using the UMC, which looks for opposite phases on the two hot lines. Using this thin breaker on an "E" shape slot in the breaker box will give you the same phase on both lines."
does not work as breaker for Tesla charger
