Subaru Charging Cable
Hello all, we are getting our first ev soon (Subaru trailseeker). We need to get a 220 V plug installed in our garage and we were debating whether or not we need a dedicated wall charger or if the charging cable that comes with the vehicle will be fine.
The electrician who came to provide an estimate is pushing for a dedicated charger hardwired to eliminate nuisance trips. He said that code requires a GFCI outlet and the charging cables also have GFCI protection, and they cause nuisance trips, which obviously stops charging.
It would be cheaper to just use the cable that came with the vehicle rather than install another dedicated charger. Does anyone have any experience with just using the cable? Any issues?
