Hi everyone, just got my Model 3 MR yesterday and 110 charging will be sufficient for our driving needs.

My question is do I need to plug the Tesla into a GFCI socket. I have both in my garage (which may not be to code) but the non GFCI is way more convenient due to where I park the car.

If it should be GFCI can I just swap out the socket?

I have it plugged in now and it is charging at 5mph and shows 118 volts and 12/12 amps if that helps in your response.

I am absolutely loving the car but don't want to burn the house down!

Thanks in advance
