I bought a used 2011 LEAF last week. It appears that the provided Nissan EVSE has been modified so that it ends with an L6-30 or L6-20 and included an adapter to a standard 120V outlet plug.
So far charging from 120V has been no problem. Is there any way I can tell exactly what modification was done, and whether it is 20 amp or 30 amp? I have an 10-30 (pre-1996 dryer outlet) nearby and could get an adapter for quicker charging (would need an adapter like http://evseupgrade.com/?main_page=product_info&cPath=1&products_id=17 or pull a dedicated circuit for EV charging), but want to figure out exactly what was done to the stock EVSE and whether it is safe before attempting to charge at 208 or 240V.
It could have been performed by http://evseupgrade.com? Any way I could tell for sure? The owner I purchased the leaf from was the second owner, and never used 240V to charge.
Thanks.
