I apologize if this topic is covered elsewhere, but I did not see it.
So I have my Leaf on order, scheduled for a January 2012 delivery. I live in Portland Oregon and Ecotality has told me I’m approved in general for the government grant for the EVSE install.
However, since I live in a condo, apparently they are having trouble actually approving it now… has anyone else seen this? I have been talking to Blink, who appear to be the front of the organization (apparently it is impossible to contact anyone at Ecotality directly) to try and see what the problem is and assure them that I am the owner of the condo, not merely a renter.
My second concern is that my unit is a stacked 3-story unit; the garage is on the ground floor, with the main living space on the 2nd floor, and bedroom with the only circuit breaker panel on the 3rd floor. Obviously the electrician will have to install a new 40 amp breaker in the panel and somehow run wires all the way down to the garage on the bottom floor. Not sure if or how this will work…. Has anyone else had a 240volt charger installed in a unit like this, and if so, how did it work?
Thanks in advance for the help and feedback!!! -John
