All right, guys. Service call. Customer just got a Mustang Mach-E, and we just installed an EV charger at ChargePoint. We installed a 40-amp breaker. I ran 8/2 Romex behind the wall, straight hardwired into the ChargePoint. And you might be wondering, "Where is the charging cord?" Well, here is a tip, guys. Goes right outside, and boom. See that? Probably never seen that before.
