    For those of us who have existing level 2 chargers.

    Seems the codes are starting to catch up to the effects of continuous power draw and issues with the receptacles.
    Approved plug-in 240vac receptacles are now in available, they are specifically designated as EV approved and most have a green car molded into the surface.
    The code updates also call for specific GFI protection as well.
    We all might consider complying with these changes.
