Hey everyone,
I have a Wall charger on one side of the house and it works great. 6 AWG wire 60AMP breaker.
Now I want splice into the existing wire and run a branch off to another location where I need to charge occasionally (garage). I will install a NEMA 14-50 there and use a mobile charger (there is no more space in the panel or holes that can be made in the house foundation), hence running two chargers on one circuit.
I will NEVER use both at the same time since I only have one car. I also have no trailer so no accidental issues with trailer power.
Is there any problem with this plan or shall i simply plow along... I want to cut my current 6 AWG wire open, install a box on the house wall and get some massive marrettes (or whatever else can be used to connect 3 x 6 AWG) and connect three wires together: one coming out of the panel, one going to the wall charger, and one to Nema 14-50. Any issues given the above?
