What happens here
Proceed to your main electrical panel, typically located in the basement as mentioned in the video. Before performing any work inside the electrical panel, ALWAYS turn OFF the main breaker for the entire house to completely de-energize the system. Install a new 50-amp, double-pole circuit breaker into an available slot in the panel. Connect the two hot wires (typically black and red) from the newly run 6-gauge electrical cable to the terminals on the new breaker. Connect the neutral wire (white) to the neutral bus bar and the ground wire (bare copper or green) to the ground bus bar. Ensure all connections are tight and secure. Once verified, carefully close the electrical panel cover.
Goal: Safely connect the EV charger circuit to the main electrical panel.
