  • Rivian car charger install. First time I’ve done one of these specifically. Most we have been installing a 14-50. Really like the clean look.
    As far as the installation, I really like and try to talk most homeowners into installing these where the garage door is. Almost every owner wants them in the car. Think about it, then you have a cord to walk over and you always have to enter the garage to charge the car. It’s best by the garage door 👍.
    Hope you learned some tips. Even small jobs take a lot of skill, knowledge, and TOOLS. 🫡⚡️💪

    I have a Rivian EVSE and I believe it should be a 6 and not an 8.

    You seem to have many of thought processes I do when it comes to electrical work. I won’t mention #8 on a 50 amp but I would like you opinion on is gfi requirements for EV in the 2020 NEC. Is that just outlets or chargers too?

    Hi Joe, I've done a few Rivian car chargers too. Is this EV charger a max 32A or 40A?

      Although it’s nice to see the electrician UA-camr get flamesprayed, the customer is the real loser in all of this… not getting what he trusted the licensed tradesman to do what he’s supposed to do.

      Im in Canada so code is a bit different,but #8 romex is good for 50amps provided itès not underground romex.Underground romex here has insulation rating of only 60 degrees,thus itès only good for 40amps.

    Haha, who cares about the romex in conduit, the real debate is about red vs black first!
