In that manual, on page 29: "Appendix B: Optional Connection for Load Sharing", you will notice in the lower right corner:
• The maximum distance between Wall Connectors is 49 ft (15 m).
Also seen on page 14: "Tools and Materials Required" is this quote:
Wiring {use twisted pair communication cable 18AWG (Max diameter: .04 in. (1.02 mm); Max. cross-sectional area:.03 in2 (0.82 mm2) for a maximum of 49 ft. (15 m) between Wall Connectors}
==========
Has anyone had experience with this 49' limit?
We have a situation where this could easily be violated for two chargers that are spread far apart. (The distance is not an issue as the bird flies or eyeball looks, but instead the distance as the conduit lays; I don't want to rip up a concrete driveway.)
I'd like to know if anyone has experience with violating the 49' rule, and/or what the real-world actual limit may be.

p.s.: I understand that Millbank, the electrical meter socket company, makes a great enclosure to protect an EVSE from the elements, etc. I've only seen the picture, and have not found out about price, availability, etc..
