The listed and labeled equipment states no GFCI protection required when hardwired regardless of location how would that equipment receive the listing if the instructions are a direct code violation?
It never matters when the equipment manufacture tells you to violate the code. All that manufacturer is actually telling you is that you cannot install their equipment in a location where the NEC requires GFCI protection. Nothing in a listing standard, product instructions, or any other document can delete a code requirement...they can add things that are not in the NEC, but they can never delete anything.
At 60A, there's no conflict if the EVSE is hardwired. 210.8(F) is for 50A and under.
Have you reviewed the language in 625? It says all receptacle outlets shall be GFCI protected no where does the language say the EVSE is connected to an outlet thus the manufacturer's instructions are correct and 210.8(F) doesn't apply like Tommy D stated.
Oh I missed the indoor location reference I read in 625 GFCI protection was only required for receptacle outlets.
Once again, you have no idea of what an outlet is....if the charger can actually charge the EV battery, the charger is connected to an outlet. If you install the EV charger in a garage and hard wire it, there is no requirement for GFCI protection. If you install an EV charger outside at a one of two family dwelling unit, and the circuit is 50 amps or less, GFCI protection is required.
Where is 210.8(F) mentioned again? I will wait
Hardwired under the 2023 under your logic it is required class A protection is not required per CMP-12 and that came from Tommy D
I am not sure what you are saying here. The code is clear in the 2023 and it appears the same as the 2020 nec. If the unit is outdoors whether hardwired or not the nec requires gfci protection.
You are not interpreting this correctly 625.60 states all receptacle outlets require GFCI protection no where does it state protection is required for the outlet assuming there is one this aligns with the manufacturer instructions that states GFCI protection is not required when hardwired.
Now read what the bold heading is concerned with that you are reading. I believe that is for onboard receptacle used for EVPE
Please try reading the words I wrote. I VERY clearly said an EV installed outside at a one or two family dwelling on a circuit rated 50 amps or less requires GFCI protection. There is nothing in Article 625 that changes this.
625.60 only applies to the vehicle manufacturer and is totally unenforceable as the assembly of vehicles is outside the scope This rule simply says that where a vehicle manufacturer installs a receptacle in the vehicle, the manufacture must provide GFCI protection for that receptacle.
There would be no way the equipment could receive a listing if the manufacturer did not include the code requirements for compliant installation it says GFCI protection not required when hardwired and that lines up with the language in 625.54.
The code language says nothing of the sort. The language in 625.54 does not talk about hard wired equipment. It very simply says that if you install a receptacle to supply EV equipment that receptacle must have GFCI protection.
