Have you checked into or considered an RV Electrical box? It has both a 220 and
2- 110/120 volt outlets and if I remember correctly, it is rated at 30 amps. It
could be rated higher, but I can't remember for sure as it has been a little
while since I looked at it.
The only other recommendation is to install it to meet local electrical
standards, then when/if you have it inspected, there shouldn't be any problems.
Oh, you might want to take pictures of the installation inside the garage and
outside and the trench so they can see that it is buried at least 18 inches
below ground level which code requires here in Clark County, Washington (not
Clark County, Nevada).
I have looked at one at Grover's Electric and Plumbing here in Vancouver,
Washington and am thinking of installing one with separate wiring circuits and
circuit breakers for both the 120 and 240 circuits so others can charge here on
a return trip to Portland, Oregon in case they don't have the range to get back
to Portland without some recharge. The only hang up is budgets as I am retired.
Hope to have it done in the near future. Dan

The short answer is that J1772 is the default that is the easiest way for any
commercial EV driver to charge. That does require an EVSE, at least at some
level. If he was installing 220V service for L2, that would be the way to go.
If installing L1, the cars generally have some sort of adapter that plugs into
110V. A standard outlet could then be installed. Weather proof housing, of
course.
Tesla has available adapters for 220V 50A and 30A outlets, but I think that is
rare with other EVs.
