Just purchased a M3 SR. First ever EV. I am going to ask my all-in-one guy to install a 14-50 receptacle in my garage. I am glad I somehow stumbled upon this thread. If not, I would have probably bought the cheap $10-$12 ones. This one (
Legrand Pass & Seymour) even has "EV" on the item name but it is still not recommended, correct? Is
Bryant 9450FR still the best bang for the buck I guess? That is still $49 compared to $21 it was a few years ago (when this thread was started
).
Also, I assume I will need to buy 6/4 wire for these. Something like
this? I am trying to find the equivalent of this in Lowes (to use some of my gift cards) and I cant find any 6/4 wire in Lowes. Only found
this ($7 per feet) but it says 6/3 even though there are 4 wires in it? Super confusing since other 6/3 are usually $2-$3 range per feet.
I guess I should also get a
electrical box and
cover to host the receptacle? Are these good ones?
Thanks in advance!
