What is a Level 32 AMP EV Charger?
A 32 Amp Level 2 EV charger delivers up to 7.68 kW at 240V, providing Approx 26 miles of range per hour depending on your EV’s efficiency. It’s a popular mid-to-high power option that balances faster charging with wide electrical compatibility. These chargers require a dedicated 40A circuit and are available as plug-in or hardwired models.
32 Amp EV Charger Circuit Requirements
A 32 Amp EV charger must be installed on a 240V circuit with a 40A double-pole breaker. The circuit must use 8 AWG solid copper conductors for hot and neutral, and 10 AWG solid copper for ground (G) – all rated for 75°C insulation (e.g., THHN). Most chargers in this class plug into a NEMA 14-50 or NEMA 6-50 outlet or may be hardwired directly. GFCI protection may be required by local code and can be integrated into the breaker, outlet, or charger itself.
NEMA 14-50P 32 Amp Level 2 EV Charger Wiring Diagram
The diagram below shows a 240V setup for a 32A Level 2 EV charger (7.68 kW) using a NEMA 14-50 plug. A 40A double-pole breaker feeds four wires – black (L1), red (L2), and white (Neutral) using 8 AWG solid copper, and green (Ground) using 10 AWG copper – from the panel to the NEMA 14-50R outlet, where the charger plugs in.
NEMA 6-50P 32 Amp Level 2 EV Charger Wiring Diagram
This diagram shows a 3-wire 240V setup using a NEMA 6-50P plug. A 40A double-pole breaker feeds three wires – black (L1) and red (L2) using 8 AWG solid copper, and green (Ground) using 10 AWG copper – from the panel to the NEMA 6-50R outlet. Neutral is not used in this configuration.
Hardwired 3-Wire 32 Amp EV Charger Wiring Diagram
This setup shows a hardwired 240V circuit for a 32A charger. A 40A double-pole breaker feeds three solid copper wires – black and red (Hot) using 8 AWG, and green (Ground) using 10 AWG – through a conduit to a junction box. The charger is directly wired in; no plug or neutral is used. Ground connects from the ground busbar.
Hardwired 4-Wire 32 Amp EV Charger Wiring Diagram
This version includes a neutral wire. A 40A double-pole breaker feeds four conductors – black (L1), red (L2) using 8 AWG from the breaker, white (Neutral) using 8 AWG from the neutral busbar, and green (Ground) using 10 AWG from the ground busbar – to a junction box for direct connection. Some 32 Amp smart EV chargers use the neutral wire for internal features.
