My truck shows to be built and shipped. Scheduled delivery date is 12/6-12/12. I want to get started figuring out my charging setup. The pro charger won’t get to me for an additional few weeks I’m sure. The meter to my hose in rated at 200amps & the main breaker is 150amps. I’m assuming that I have 150amp service with the ability to upgrade to 200amp. The current box is full. I’m thinking I should just add a 100amp sub panel for all of the garage stuff. I would remover the 30amp 240 breaker for my compressor & replace it with the 100amp breaker feeding the sub box. I would then add the pro charger, compressor, lights & anything else in the future. Obviously every home is different and the amount of energy pulled at any 1 time will change, but I feel this is the way to go. I’ve never had any electrical issues with the current setup but adding an 80amp charger could definitely change things. I’m assuming that if there were issues & I was popping breakers that I could dial the max amperage back on the switch inside the charger. Does this sound like a good plan or am I missing something and maybe just need to have an electrician replace the box with a 200amp larger setup? Attached are pics of my current box & meter.
