Friends, I have a small question.
I bought a dryer replacement cord with a 3-prong plug
and a matching socket (10-30R)
and a 2-gang box and dry-while-in-use cover
that will work with the socket. I ran a 10-2 with ground
I would use 8ga. I think 10 ga is marginal for 30 amps.
and I have a 30 amp GFCI 2-pole breaker.
I noticed on the socket it says "3-pole, 3-wire, non-grounding"
and indeed I see that the L-shaped prong is not grounded
to the mounting plate.
Is this an appropriate combination to feed the 6kw charger
on my Leaf, using the OpenEVSE?
Is there something more appropirate for a GFCI-protected
30 amp 220 circuit?
I don't know about GFIs but I've had a lot of trouble with 120vac GFIs.
I THINK you OpenEVSE MAY contain ground fault interruption; I believe
the JuiceBoxes do.
