Home EV Charger Install Guide

Level 1 vs. Level 2, what it takes and what affects the price.

Charge at Home, Faster

A normal outlet (Level 1) adds only a few miles of range per hour. So most EV owners add a Level 2 charger. It can fill most cars overnight.

 

A Level 2 charger needs a 240V circuit, like a dryer. So we check your panel first. Then we run the circuit and mount the charger where your cord reaches.

 

What affects the price:

⚡ How far the garage is from the panel

⚡ If your panel has room for a new circuit

⚡ Hardwired charger or plug-in outlet

⚡ Indoor or outdoor mounting

⚡ If a permit is needed

Quick Answers

⚡ What size circuit does an EV charger need?

Most home chargers use a 40 to 60 amp, 240V circuit. The right size depends on your charger and your car.

 

⚡ Should I hardwire my charger or use a plug?

Both work. Hardwired chargers are a bit cleaner and safer for daily use. A plug lets you take the charger with you if you move.

 

⚡ Can I install an EV charger outside?

Yes. We use outdoor-rated parts and mount it where your cord reaches the car.
