NEC Article 625 — EV Charger Wiring

NEC 625.40 — Branch Circuit: EV charging is a continuous load (3+ hours). The Polestar 2 at 11 kW/240V needs a 60A dedicated circuit (46A × 125% = 60A).

NEC 625.54 — GFCI Protection: All EV charging equipment requires ground-fault protection. Verify conductor sizing with our Wire Size Calculator.

Wire sizing: A 60A circuit with 6 AWG copper. For runs over 75 feet, upsize one gauge. Check with our Voltage Drop Calculator.

Disclaimer: Estimates based on manufacturer specs. Real-world efficiency varies with driving conditions, temperature, and charging habits.
