If it's hardwired, then there won't be a cord. Otherwise, yes.SageBrush said:I'm a bit dense today. Am I reading you correctly that a hard-wired EVSE with a short cord and with GFCI built-in does not require a GFCI breaker according to 2020 NEC ?
As to the two requirements, I'm saying that the new-to-2020 requirement for GFCI protection of any receptacle used for a cord-and-plug connected EVSE did not change the much-older requirement that every EVSE incorporate GFCI-like protection, along with limits on cord length relative to the location of that GFCI-like protection. Both requirements are in force under the 2020 NEC, or the 2017 NEC with TIA.
