After waiting for my electrician to come for three weeks, I finally had it and decided to install the charger myself.
I have a 30A circuit breaker on the wire so I thought it wouldn't be tripped because Nissan Leaf suppose to draw 16A only.
However, after the successful charge the first night, my circuit breaker starts to trip after 15 min or so of charging.
I know the EVSE rated 32A so I should install it on a 40A+ breaker but shouldn't the EVSE limited itself to Nissan Leaf's 16A?
The EVSE return deadline is next week so I'm wondering if it will help if I get the 16A unit instead or have to rewire the breaker.
Thanks
