So, to continue. If I use an extension cord with a 10 gauge wire like this one:

Isn't this ext cord even better than using Romex 12 gauge to add an additional outlet? I guess I don't understand why the L1 cable breaks code standards if one uses an extension cord. The extension cord will be connected to a GFCI outlet by the way and it is permanent.
Amazon also has 50' and 100' in the 10 gauge wire size from this same seller (along with different colors as well), along with some RV adapters, etc. not inexpensive....

Home depot pro has every cord and plug an EV driver could need. They have 8 and 10G extension cords as well for both 120 and 240.
