Install a Home EV Charger the Right Way
Installing an EV charger is not as simple as plugging it into a standard outlet. Most charging systems require a dedicated circuit and the correct electrical capacity to operate safely. Our team can help you evaluate your existing system and install your charger with proper wiring, protection, and code compliance.
Types of EV Chargers
Choosing the right charger depends on how you plan to use it and what your car is compatible with. Our team can handle both level 1 and level 2 EV charger installations in your home or business.
Level 1 Charger
Level 1 chargers use a standard outlet and are typically included with most electric vehicles. They provide slow charging and are best for light daily use.
Level 2 Charger
Level 2 chargers use a 240-volt circuit and provide much faster charging. This is the most common option for homeowners and allows you to fully charge your vehicle overnight.
Do You Need a Panel Upgrade for an EV Charger?
In many cases, homes do not have enough available capacity to support all of the electrical devices on the system and a new EV charger. If your panel is already at or near its limit, adding a charger may require an upgrade to ensure it can safely handle the additional load. Our team of experts can help you evaluate your system and advise on whether a panel upgrade is needed.
