  1. NEMA 14-50 Supply cable heat data

    Yup, that's about right on the 40A. Just don't squeeze the cable above the plug by the label unless you want red marks on the inside of your hand! ;)
  2. NEMA 14-50 Supply cable heat data

    Correct! Happened to me, as well.
  3. NEMA 14-50 Supply cable heat data

    Ok, shall due and let you know. The plug itself is very tight into the receptacle so it could be the internals of the plug itself, as you mentioned. Thanks
  4. NEMA 14-50 Supply cable heat data

    Dock door open at all times, 40 amps entire charge. Are you saying the connection from the 4 gauge to the receptacle may be a poor connection or a poor connection somewhere else? And forgot to say the temp at the 4 gauge out of the wall into the receptacle was 104*, if that means anything...

    Ok, this is about 1hr 40 mins in (I don't have the graphic skills you guys have): Double 50A breaker at panel: top half is 105* bottom is 96* (70 ft 4 gauge wire) Garage temp: 91* Receptacle: 122* Plug: 145*+ Supply cable right above plug: fluctuated between 147-154*, when shot a few more...

    Sorry, I ended the charge at 2 hours 36 mins. Not 2 hours.
  8. NEMA 14-50 Supply cable heat data

    Cable to the car was very warm but not hot to the touch. I plan on going to Home Depot tomorrow to get the infrared temp thermometer. Garage temp is 91 degrees and wiring is inside PMCC enclosure.

    Other than what I showed you on the display screen where else would the kW be seen? I just ended the charge and the screen was at 24.3 kWh at 2 hours. Not sure where I'd look other than what's on the display.

    This is what it shows now and at the beginning of the charging the amps were fluctuating between 39.8 and 39.7A. Is this what you’re looking for?

    daveo, I hope you like cigars because I OWE YOU ONE!!! I wish it was a box but after what I spent trying resolve this issue that’s all I can afford. You are 100% correct. This new set up, the 4 gauge wire, the Hubbell receptacle had ABSOLUTELY NO EFFECT WHATSOEVER!! After 75 minutes the supply...

    Will find out later tonight if this has any effect, at all. Hope the benefit is more than “small”.

    daveo, Porsche will owe me over $650, not to mention a correctly gauged supply cable, if what you say turns out to be the case. I have exhausted every possible scenario to try and correct the "red" (inside of my palm) hot supply cable @ 40A charging. And yet, the dealer tells me out of all the...

    This was my original set-up.
  15. NEMA 14-50 Supply cable heat data

    Nice work there, wemct! Today my electrician came and replaced my 6 gauge wire with a 4 gauge along with a new Hubbell (sp?) receptacle, per Bill’s recommendation. Electrician had to be somewhat creative with the receptacle’s box to ease getting the wire in to the receptacle. 50A breaker in the...
