      If you went to my" follow up" section that is exactly what I did, mine is running at 64 amps. I should have mentioned the 9 position switch in the video, thanks. You can actually derate the FCSP to 12 amps. I am guessing yours is at 48 amps 👍

    Thanks for the video, I have a question, I installed my charger it's outdoor. I have a 200A for my house and 100A for the car. the breakers for the car and the main breaker (the 200A) are getting very hot to the point that my main phase from the electrical company melted down. any idea why it happens?. btw I didn't torque the screws, can it be because I didn't torque it?

      So many things that could have gone wrong. Did you follow the FCSP instructions, including wire size? Did you follow my advice on the video? I am guessing you did not put a temp probe at the breaker like I did, look at the follow up on the video, it is at the end. I am also guessing you were using the full 80 amps? Torquing is so important and that is why I stressed that so many times in the video.

    Not sure if you gave enough information about the wire length and gauge

      I used 3.3.3.5 CU and it was 42 feet. I thought for sure I had put that in the video

      Copper is crazy expensive. I ended up buying mine on eBay. Seller: Bobdraper85

      ​@@zweare1I saw some blue and brown wires and some small communication wires too..did you have to mess with those? Or did you only have to hook up the #3 copper from the panel?
