![]() I could set either to 24 amps and I'd be fine. ![]() Something like this:Ī: Grizzl-E Level 2 EV Charger, 16/24/32/40 Amp, NEMA 14-50 Plug/06-50 Plug, 24 feet Premium Cable, Indoor/Outdoor Car Charging Station, Classic/Avalanche/Extreme (Classic 14-24-PB) : AutomotiveĪ: Electrify America Electric Vehicle (EV) Charger, Level 2, WiFi Enabled, 16 to 40 Amp, 240V, UL Listed, Energy Star, Indoor/Outdoor, 24-Foot Cable, NEMA Plug, Remote Access, App Control : Automotive I'll move that to a 14-50 plug (perfectly within code to do that) and look for a configurable EVSE. Personally I too have a 30 map available in my garage. I believe now they ship with a 32amp 240 (which you could not even faintly use). Which is why the older Leafs shipped with a 12 amp 120V EVSE. The average NA home has a 15 amp 120V circuit. The more recent Leafs, (I believe) ship with exactly that: A 32 amp EVSE cable that requires a 40 amp circuit.īottom line: We'd need to know the factory supplied EVSE's (the cord) output to know that, not the plug type. To utilize the full rated capability of the OBC we would need a 40 amp rated circuit. So what EVSE did the Ariya ship with?ģ) No. You may not safely, or within code, plug in an EVSE with a pilot signal greater than the circuits capability. (Of course, where did you get the EVSE from?)Ģ) It's hard to know. Most folks will not need more charging than that if home charging regularly. The Ariya does something like 2.7 miles per KW, so just over 15 miles of range per hour of charge (using NEC EV code). Is a 30 amp breaker sufficient? There are at least 3 answers to that:ġ) Usually, yes. So yea, that's a plug capable of charging at up to 42 amps continuous. ![]() The blue one looks like a 30 amp RV plug, although it's hard to know. The white adapter looks like a 120v (known as a Nema 5-20R) to 14-50R adapter. He's showing you the head of a male Nema 14-50 plug. For example 14-50R becomes 14-50 receptacle or 14-50 outlet.I believe that photo is all you need for what you asked. The R stands for Receptacle (outlet) and the P stands for Plug, we commonly truncate this to just the numbers and add the word receptacle (or outlet) at the end. In the full NEMA number you will see a capital R or P. Be sure to carefully look at your outlet and the chart, it's easy to mistake one outlet for another if your outlet has it's ground pin facing the floor instead of the ceiling or Vice Versa compared to the chart. 110/120 volt outlets can be found mounted in all directions. L6-30 (locking 240 volt 30amp) Twist-Lock 30A 240 volt outlet, my personal favorite locking connector, easy to find in stores, works great for adding adapters to portables EVSE’s equipped with a L6-30 plug.Ģ20/240 volt outlets are commonly install with the ground pin towards the ceiling for safety.TT-30 (Travel Trailer 30amp) 30A 120 volt 3-prong outlet, the older style found in RV parks, not used in residential homes.This is the one the Tesla guys install in their garages. ![]() By far the best universal connector to have for an EVSE. 14-50 standard 50A 240 volt 4-prong Range (electric stove top) outlet, also called RV-50 at the RV parks.14-30 standard 30A 240 volt 4-prong Dryer outlet found in homes build in 1996 and newer.10-30 standard 30A 240 volt 3-prong Dryer outlet found in homes build before 1996.6-50 standard 50A 240 volt 3-prong outlet, found in shops and garages used for large welders.6-20 standard 20A 240 volt household outlet, found in homes and motels for running in-wall Air Conditioners, also found occasionally in residential garages.The 5-20 is not as common as a 6-20 outlet with it’s “T” shaped slot as it will accept both 6-20 and 6-15 plugs. 6-15 standard 15A 240 volt household outlet, found in homes and motels for running in-wall Air Conditioners, it’s the smaller brother to the NEMA 6-20 outlet.5-20 standard 20A 120 volt household outlet, required by code in bathroom and behind your refrigerator.5-15 standard 15A 120 volt household outlet, the most common you see everywhere.You can also email us a pic of your plugs and outlets you need help identifying and we would be happy to help.
