You can charge an electric car from a regular wall outlet, but it’s slow. A Level 2 charger runs on a 240-volt circuit and can charge most electric cars overnight.
The charger needs its own circuit, sized for the charger and run from your panel to where you park. Some people want a charger wired directly to the wall, and others want a 240-volt outlet they can plug a charger into. We install both.
How it works
We check your panel for space and capacity, look at the route from the panel to your parking spot, and give you a written estimate. If the panel is full or close to its limit, we’ll go over your options, which may include a load management device or a panel upgrade.
Then we run the circuit, mount the charger or outlet, and test it with you. A permit is usually required for this kind of work.
