So in preparation for my new leaf, Im planning to use the Clipper Creek HCS-40P with the NEMA 14-50 plug to avoid having to install a disconnect in my garage. My main panel is outside and I plan on installing the NEMA outlet on the garage wall on the internal side of the wall.
In the attached pictures, the middle breaker on the right and it's associated wiring will be removed and replaced with a 40amp breaker and #8 wiring.
This seem like a real easy install since the wiring exits the wall right after it exits the main panel. it's only about 36 inches of conduit run horizontally from there, then the NEMA enclosure. I'm just not sure which is the 'right' way to transition the wiring from inside the finished wall to a conduit running on the outside of the finished wall to the NEMA outlet enclosure.
I would think romex from the breaker out of the main panel, into the wall, then through the drywall into a wall mounted junction box.
The second picture below is not mine, but demonstrates what I was thinking.
