Only thing I can think of is 0 chance of failure is their goal to save facewhat would be the reason for no Alum, seems dumb if alum is sized properly.
plus if you can afford and EV just buy a hard wired version.
50 bucksYet just saw this at one of my supply houses. Anyone priced it?
Is there is continuous and non continuous rating for receptacles?The original version was not rated for continuous loads and would burn up. This must have been redesigned and resubmitted for approval. The no aluminum probably stems from manufacturers stating no aluminum in the branch circuit to avoid conductor failure.
Bingo. LMAOJust in time to see the market for EVs crash and burn.

In 40 plus years I've never heard of any.Is there is continuous and non continuous rating for receptacles?
Probably the same but I think those are dual rated.Wonder how it compares to the Hubbell/Bryant?

The problems with melted EV recepts that were properly installed originate from aluminum terminations heating up the receptacle, aluminum terminations have a narrower band of tolerance.The no aluminum probably stems from manufacturers stating no aluminum in the branch circuit to avoid conductor failure.
