TL;DR
A Wall Connector is the wall-mounted Level 2 home charging unit Tesla sells for its vehicles, hardwired to a 240-volt circuit and adjustable to output up to 48 amps, about 11.5 kW, where the panel allows a 60-amp breaker. Recent generations include Wi-Fi for firmware updates and power sharing between multiple units, and a universal version adds a built-in J1772 adapter for non-Tesla cars.
What it means
A Wall Connector is the wall-mounted Level 2 home charging unit Tesla sells for its vehicles, hardwired to a 240-volt circuit and adjustable to output up to 48 amps, about 11.5 kW, where the panel allows a 60-amp breaker. Recent generations include Wi-Fi for firmware updates and power sharing between multiple units, and a universal version adds a built-in J1772 adapter for non-Tesla cars. Installation is ordinary electrician work, sizing the circuit to the dip-switch or app setting at 125 percent of continuous load, and the name gets used loosely for hardwired EV chargers in general.
