I have lied about nothing nor have I given any misinformation.
Yes, you have. You are continuing to tell people they can
use a 60A breaker with 6 gauge Romex. While it is allowable to connect those things together, they cannot be
used that way.
because you can, in many cases.
No, it can't. And this is what I am trying to get through to you. I get what you want. You want a pat on the back for thinking you "pulled a fast one" on the NEC and got away with something that's wild but code compliant.
You can put in that cable, and then you can put a 60A breaker on it, and then you get to proudly strut around with that code compliant
HALF of a circuit that ends in bare wires. But there is no legitimate way to
USE that. If there were some kind of appliance that said that it needed exactly a 55A circuit, then you could hardwire that on, and that would be right, but there generally aren't any. And there definitely aren't any EVSEs on the market that use a 55A rated circuit. So the next thing that anyone would have to do if they wanted to use it is to take that apart and replace either the wire or the breaker with something different that will match the EVSE or outlet that would need to be attached at the other end.
No, it definitely doesn't. That is a lie. Here is the manual for it:
It skips from the 50A circuit setting (providing 40 continuous amps) to the 60A circuit setting (providing 48 continuous amps). There is no setting for a 55A circuit providing 44A, as you falsely claim.
if you set the charger at 55 amps that would be more than 80 percent of the over current protection device (60) and that would be a code Violation.
That would be wrong, but I never said or suggested that--stop putting words in my mouth that I did not say. I said setting it to a 55A rated circuit, to match the max rating of that cable. That could supply 44A continuous. That could be a hypothetical way to do this if it existed, but there aren't any EVSEs available that have a setting like that, for this very reason--there isn't a common breaker for that. So they only make them to be for normal settings like 50 or 60 rated circuits.
I am trying to clear this up that if people want to install something valid that they can use for home charging, they should never try to pair up the 6 gauge cable with a 60A breaker. They just can't be used together to make a full, usable circuit for EV charging. If you would just admit those can't be used together and stop telling people they can, this can stop.
If I am misleading them by accurately stating the code, perhaps they should refer to a professional.
Sure, they could, but we all could also stand for you to stop giving bad advice.
Sticking a 50 amp breaker on a charger charging at 48 amps is just as dangerous as sticking a 60 amp breaker there.
...which is why NO ONE IS SUGGESTING DOING THAT!!! That would be obviously, blatantly, seriously wrong, and you are being intentionally trollish to imply that people are suggesting it. We have been saying over and over, (which you insist on willfully ignoring) that given that level of cable in the wall already, the best reasonable thing anyone can do with it is just to make it a standard, normal 50A rated circuit, which supplies 40A to the car. That's it--very simple and correct and code compliant.
as an electrician I find these arguments extremely entertaining... get a room guys!
Yeah, well, it's getting less entertaining each time it keeps going around.
