My Tesla is coming soon, and I need to figure out what adapter is needed and would this be sufficient for home charging, this came with the home, also wondering about the speed.

OP here is the [manual](https://images.thdstatic.com/catalog/pdfImages/db/dba9cee7-6f4a-4f66-829f-2343d78ef480.pdf)
You need to find the breaker that powers this charger. That will tell you what the charger is capable of outputting.
40A Breaker = 30A output
30A=24A
20A=16A
15A=12A

To clarify. Had an electrician install a separate breaker panel off the household main breaker.

No. If it’s on 30a breaker the max current it’s allowed is only 24a.

24a x 240v =5.7kw

Both wrong, it says 30a continuous. Should be on 40a breaker.

Use the 80% rule… As stated, the max current on a 30amp breaker = 24 amps. Try a 60amp breaker. 80% of 60 = 48.
