The adapter tells the connector which outlet it is on, so the car draws 16A, which is 80% of the 20A circuit, as EV charging rules require. If the plug gets too hot, the thermal sensor tells the car to slow or pause charging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho It's For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGarages and shops that already have a 240V 20A outlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrivers who want Level 2 speed without installing a new circuit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOvernight top-ups of about 120 miles in 8 hours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBefore You Buy\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA 6-20 outlet has a horizontal slot, a T-shaped slot and a round ground; it is not the same as a 120V 5-20\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe circuit should be a dedicated 20A, 240V circuit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo not use extension cords or stacked adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow fast does a Tesla charge on a NEMA 6-20 outlet?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbout 16A at 240V, roughly 3.8 kW or 14–15 miles of range per hour on a Model 3 or Model Y.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the difference between NEMA 6-20 and 5-20?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 6-20 is a 240V outlet and charges about four times faster.
