JuiceBox 40 Amp EV Charger NEMA 14-50 Installation Guide
The wiring diagram below shows the setup for installing a NEMA 14-50R outlet with the JuiceBox 40 Amp EV Charger. It includes a 50-amp double-pole breaker, a main breaker, and neutral, and ground busbars within a 120V/240V panel. Key components are labeled: L1 (Hot 1), L2 (Hot 2), Neutral, and Ground, using 6 AWG 90°C copper wire. The diagram specifies conduit sizes (¾”-1¼”) and proper grounding with a ground rod, compliant with NEC standards for a safe installation.
Compatible NEMA 14-50 Outlets
For optimal performance with your JuiceBox 40 Amp EV Charger, use high-quality NEMA 14-50 outlets. These outlets, preconfigured for NEMA Type 14-50P, comply with 2017 NEC Section 625.17, supporting up to 40A on a 50A circuit breaker. They deliver a continuous 40A (9.6 kW) charge, ensuring safe, efficient operation. Built for durability, they support 6 AWG wiring to prevent overheating during use, offering a reliable, future-proof charging solution.
JuiceBox 40 Amp EV Charger Installation with NEMA 6-50 Outlet
Installing the JuiceBox 40 Amp EV Charger using a NEMA 6-50 outlet differs from a NEMA 14-50 installation. The NEMA 6-50R outlet features two parallel hot prongs, with the larger prong on the right, and a horseshoe-shaped ground prong.
For proper installation, since the charger has a maximum of 40 amps, connect the outlet to a dedicated 50-amp circuit breaker, and use a 6-gauge wire for the wiring. Ensure the wiring is enclosed in conduit with an inner diameter ranging from 3/4″ to 1¼”.
The diagram below offers detailed instructions for wiring the NEMA 6-50R outlet for the JuiceBox 40 Amp EV Charger, including close-up views of the outlet’s terminal connections and the full branch circuit from the breaker panel to the outlet.
Compatible NEMA 6-50 Outlets for JuiceBox 40 Amp EV Charger
For optimal performance, use the high-quality NEMA 6-50 outlets listed below. These outlets are NEC-compliant, designed to support 40A continuous current on a 50A circuit breaker, and are compatible with 6 AWG wiring. This setup ensures safe, efficient charging while preventing overheating and ensuring reliable operation for the JuiceBox 40 Amp EV Charger.
