A standard wall outlet (Level 1) adds only a few miles of range per hour. A Level 2 charger on a 240-volt circuit can fully recharge most EVs overnight.
The installation is where it's easy to get wrong: the circuit has to be sized for continuous charging, your panel has to have the capacity, and the charger has to be mounted and wired for its location. We handle all of it.
What we do
Panel and load check
We look at your panel and your home's existing load before anything else, so the charger doesn't overload your service.
Hardwired or plug-in
Hardwired chargers or a NEMA 14-50 outlet for plug-in units — we'll explain the trade-offs for your charger and location.
Garage, carport or driveway
Indoor and outdoor installs with the right enclosures, mounting and cable reach for where you park.
Load management
If your panel is close to capacity, a load-managing charger or device can avoid a service upgrade. If an upgrade is the better answer, we'll tell you.
Sizing the circuit
EV charging is a continuous load, so code requires the circuit to be rated at 125% of the charger's output. A charger that delivers 32 amps needs a 40-amp circuit; a 48-amp charger needs 60 amps. The wire, breaker and outlet (if any) all have to match.
Do I need a panel upgrade?
Not necessarily. Many homes have room for an EV circuit as-is. Others need a subpanel, load management, or a service upgrade. A load calculation tells us which.

EV Charger Installation: common questions
Can you install a charger I already bought?
Send us the make and model and we'll confirm its circuit requirements and whether it's a good fit for your panel and location.
Plug-in or hardwired — which is better?
Hardwired chargers can deliver more power and have fewer connection points to wear out. Plug-in chargers on a NEMA 14-50 outlet are easier to take with you. We'll recommend what fits your charger and garage.
Can I charge at home with a regular outlet?
Yes, with Level 1 charging, but it's slow. For daily driving, most owners find a Level 2 charger worth it.
