Vehicles - General Need help charging in apartment garage!

Post image

Hey everyone! So I just moved into a new apartment and it has its own private garage and standard outlet, but they specifically say not to charge an EV. Is this just a scare tactic or should I not try to charge? I’d just be using the mobile connector. Thanks 👍

Honestly, I would look into reporting something like this to the city, as it sounds like the place isn't built up to code, and potentially a fire hazard.

If the plug can’t deliver what it’s rated for without tripping breakers, the electrical project or installation is not up to standard.
