Hello,
I have got an on site estimate from a licensed electrician in San Diego who will rearrange some breakers, install 50A breaker and run #4 wire 10 feet on the inside the garage wall behind the panel for $300. He asked me to send him a picture of my panel so he can prepare for this Friday installation. However, I got a phone call from him saying that I might need a 100A sub panel and the new total cost would be $700. I thought that some of my breakers can be rearranged using tandem breakers to make room for the 50A EVSE double pole breaker. Do I really need a sub panel? Thanks for your help.
