Hi folks
Not to stir up another firestorm again - but I was curious why a 14/50 240V
socket was chosen for portable EVSE charge controllers when they *don’t* use
the neutral wire? The NEMA 6-50 sockets without a neutral would seem more
appropriate but aren’t used that often and would need a 6-50 to 14/50 adapter.
The Enphase (microinverters) solar ground mount arrays we traditionally install
in our volunteer solar club tend to be about 100’ away from the house, so
running an additional #6 neutral adds cost but of course required by code as we
do for courtesy 120V 20A or 14/50 50A breakers in the remote combiner box (or
sub panel breaker box at solar array).
Best regards
Mark
