Homeowners should not be installing their own EV chargers and definitely shouldn’t be installing bi-directional EV charging equipment. I wouldn’t do my own natural gas pipefitting because I don’t know how to do it correctly, I would hire a pipefitter to do it. Electrical work is just as dangerous if you don’t do it correctly.

Homeowners are terrible electricians that don’t understand that every termination needs to be done with a torque wrench or torque screwdriver that has been inspected and verified to be accurate within the past year or it doesn’t meet code.

Homeowners do dumb shit like tapping multiple circuits off a single breaker, stripping off too much insulation and leaving live conductors exposed, using a coffee can as a junction box, or using the wrong size wire because they don’t know how to read an ampacity table.

50 to 60 amps at 240 volts is over 10kW, terminations matter a lot more at 10kW than they do at 1.8kW (15A @ 120V)

Please pay an electrician unless you have a copy of the NEC and understand it.

I sell and run commercial electrical work for a living.
