Dryer outlets are almost always 30 amps. You can tell by checking the breaker rating in your electrical panel.

The Leaf charger is capable of 6.6 kW, which is more than a 30 amp circuit is rated to continuously operate, so you'd need to buy a smart EVSE to limit to 24 amps (80% of circuit rating).

You can modify the stock Leaf EVSE to run on 240v, but it would be limited to 12 amps. Probably fine for your situation. I've modified 2 Leaf EVSEs to operate on both 120v and 240v.
