What happens here

Once the breaker is installed, route the 6/2 Metal Clad (MC) cable from the main electrical panel up into the ceiling joist space or along the basement walls. The video shows the cable running vertically from the panel, then horizontally along the wooden joists. Secure the MC cable to the framing members (joists or studs) every 4.5 feet or less, and within 12 inches of boxes or enclosures, using appropriate cable straps or staples. Plan the route to minimize bends and avoid obstructions, ensuring the cable is protected and neatly organized.

Goal: Run the EV charger cable from the electrical panel to the exterior wall
