Hello Leaf community.
I am the new owner of a 2022 SL plus and had an electrician tell me something puzzling today.
In the garage, I have a 240 outlet already but with a 30amp outlet on it. I called an electrician out to upgrade it to a50 amp circuit because I knew it needed to be desired to the larger gauge for 50 amps.
The electrician seemed to believe that I can’t plug in the EVSE to a 50 amp circuit because the EVSE says on the back “input 240v / 30 amps”. And since it says that, they won’t install a 50 amp circuit.
I’m confused and this doesn’t sound right but I can’t find any documentation to say what amperage the input from the house should be.
Appreciate your help and sorry if this was answered but I didn’t find anything in my search!
