Technician: Tyler Harris
What We Installed
- Hardwired Tesla Wall Connector (60A circuit): A clean, permanent EVSE installation designed for reliable daily charging.
- New 60A breaker: Installed in the existing service panel to supply the Wall Connector with the correct overcurrent protection.
- #6 THHN conductors: Pulled to properly size the 60-amp circuit in accordance with manufacturer specifications and code.
- 3/4" PVC conduit (approximately 10–12 ft): Neatly routed from the panel to the charger location for a tidy, durable finish.
- County electrical permit: Filed with the local jurisdiction to ensure the project was permitted and code-compliant.
We completed device configuration and system testing to verify correct operation and safe charging performance.
Why Choose a 60-Amp Hardwired Tesla Charger?
- Faster charging: A 60A circuit typically supports up to 48A of continuous EV charging (80% rule), reducing charge times compared to lower-amperage options.
- Cleaner look: Hardwiring eliminates bulky plugs and cords at the outlet, creating a streamlined appearance.
- Reliability: Dedicated circuit and breaker minimize nuisance trips and voltage drop.
- Future-ready: Proper conductor sizing and conduit routing make maintenance and upgrades easier down the road.
