  • ⚡Estimated $30-$60/month electricity cost
NEC 625.41 Note: Per the National Electrical Code Section 625.41, EV charging equipment shall be supplied by a dedicated branch circuit with an ampacity not less than the maximum load of the EVSE. For continuous loads (3 hours or more), the circuit breaker must be rated at 125% of the continuous load per NEC 210.20. The 60A breaker and 6 AWG wire specified above comply with these requirements for the 11 kW (46A continuous) onboard charger.
