Time for an update.
Almost five years ago I built this EVSE. We used it to charge our car two times a day four years.
This last year we usually only charge once a day my son has his own car and drives himself to school every day.
During this time, I have had the one fuse blow twice. Since this was the second time the fuse blew. I took it off the wall to investigate why it was blowing the fuse.
It turns out the fuse holder that I did not really like had the female spade connector loosen up.
This was on the side the fuse was blowing. I crimped it down and resembled it. I built this in a water proof box.
I could see where some heat was building up so I drilled two 3/8 holes on the top and one on the bottom. This will let the heat out.
It is back to charging my car again.
