Thanks Phil etc Sometimes the code doesn't explain why there's certain rules that appear arbitrary (like the 12" cord rule). The larger units are limited to 6'. Presumably the GFCI trip current (inside a EVSE) is higher (not sure how much) than the 6ma (if using a GFCI panel breaker). A large chassis like a car and with an internal switching supply-charger has EMI X (line to line) and Y caps (line to ground for common mode RF) that will most likely leak close to 6ma. Luckily inspector 13 (here) hasn't enforced the panel GFCI breaker requirement (since 2020) on 14/50s used for EV charging.
