A 150A panel should accommodate both your induction stove and EV charger. The stove's 50A rating assumes you are running all burners are running simultaneously, which is rare. You need 200A if you going fully electric (for hot water, HVAC, oven and clothes dryer).
- namibj 5y agoAlso most stoves (at least here) seem to allow de-rating by configuring them to self-limit their current draw to accommodate breakers/circuits not sized large enough to handle their full capacity.
- seanmcdirmid 5y agoOur hot water is gas, but our HVAC (heat pump), dryer is already electric. The oven would be electric also, but it’s rarely used. Anyways, I would let an electrician make the call, but my feeling is that EV level 2 charging and induction would put us over when a 150A panel could handle.
- danans 5y agoYeah, heat pump and dryer can push you over, especially if you are in a colder climate. Miele makes a 115V/20A heat pump dryer that you might consider even if you go to 200A.
