A:AnswerYes, it will work, but I highly suggest upgrading the NEMA plug to a Hubbell or similar-quality plug that can withstand high current and prevent overheating and melting in older outlets.
A:Answeryes, if it is THHN wire can handle more heat plus the charger will only pull 48amp 80% of breaker size.
If you put in 50-amp breaker it will pull 40 amps not much difference on a full charge it will save about an hour charging time but what's the difference, it is still an overnight charger basically
A:AnswerMine is hooked right into my breaker box on the other side of my garage. We did not use the 220 plug in. Our installer said direct is better. You could call Tesla and ask.
A:AnswerYou can use a 40 amp breaker, but you might limit or slow down the charging speed. The charger really wants a 60 amp breaker, but you should be okay with a 40.
A:Answerthat is actually based on your vehicles battery size and limitations of the car. for example this unit can be wired to a 60 amp breaker, and still only produce a max of 48 amps. but your car and wire size will be detected and max out accordingly. in a 48amp scenario on a tesla you will see around 13kwh which is about 32mph give or take your sizes.
