When lower-income households face affordability barriers, it’s not just their problem – it’s the missing link to achieving a full switch to electric vehicles.
My understanding is that post NEC 2023 tandem breakers will not meet code. Yes, you can still buy them and yes I could put them in without people knowing…but that’s not the way I do upgrades. You can still buy quad breakers but I don’t think those ever met code.
Thanks for the info. I likely could be fine with a 20a/240v circuit…but i don’t even have that available currently. I’ll do some more research on the tandem breakers.
Oh man, they are coming for our tandems too!? My area is still under NEC 2020 by ordinance, which is still more recent than a lot of surrounding counties. It’s still recent enough to need GFCI on dual-pole breakers going to outlets, which was a real pain in terms of availability and cost.
