The people who approve these matters at an IHS hospital are political appointees related to tribal connections. They are gross incompetents.
If ANY body should stick to code, it is here. Luckily, they only act in self-preservation so there is no way in hell they are going to agree to ad-hoc contraptions.
Nothing I suggested is against "code".
Those ARE the codes... markings on a neutral, appropriate breaker for the circuit, proper gauge wire for the load, etc.
No, the folks signing a contract won't know how to wire open outlet (I didn't suggest that, either). But, they might actually ask a building manager if this is possible, and he might look at the description and forward to an electrician who WILL know how to do this.
But, even if it's only 120v at the hospital, with a 30kWh, and a full charge at home, he might be ok.
