Connect Wire to GFCI Breaker

HOW TO INSTALL A CHARGEPOINT NEMA 14-50R IN 3 MINUTES!
What happens here
With the power OFF at the main breaker, open the electrical panel. Carefully strip the outer jacket off the 6/3 Romex wire using a razor knife or wire stripper to expose the individual conductors (two hot, one neutral, one ground). Install a 40 amp (or 50 amp, as specified for continuous load) GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) breaker into an available slot in the electrical panel. Connect the two hot wires to the GFCI breaker terminals, the neutral wire to the neutral bus bar, and the ground wire to the ground bus bar. Ensure all connections are tight and secure. Finally, attach the provided ChargePoint label to the electrical panel cover to indicate the new circuit.
Goal: Install GFCI breaker and connect new circuit wiring
