> So put your EV charger on the same circuit as the dryer. Then as long as you don't need to charge the EV at the same time you are running the dryer as far as your house wiring is concerned it is like you are running an extra two loads of clothes through the dryer every day. I asked an electrician about this once and got lectured. Apparently per regulations a dryer needs to be on a dedicated circuit, and tapping into that line is a big no-no. Nor do you want to have to depend on a breaker as a fail-safe at this amount of current. Instead he ran a separate 50 amp line to my garage terminating in a single outlet, that I can do whatever I want with, EV or welder or whatever. |
