Hi there,

I'm eagerly awaiting my new e-tron to be delivered this week. I had an electrician out here to get an estimate for installing a 240v adapter in my driveway. He asked how many amps are needed by the charger. Do folks here know how many amps are required?

Thanks!
 
Seems like it's 16A but I'm not sure I'm remembering correctly. Regardless, I put in a 40A breaker since I wanted it sized for a larger car/charger in the future.

That seems right, mine consistently draws 15-15.5A from 30A public stations.
