Understanding Customized EV Charging Installations

If you're considering having an EV charging station installed at your home in South Shore, knowing about the charging levels is important.

Different levels of EV chargers:

  • Level 1 charging allows you to use your standard household 120-volt outlet to charge your vehicle. All EVs should come with a cord that will enable you to plug your car into the outlet. Still, it would be best to have a certified electrician inspect your home's wiring before charging for extra peace of mind. This level is slow (taking around 3 to 7 hours to charge) but convenient. It works best if you have enough time to charge your vehicle.
  • Level 2 chargers require a dedicated 240- or 208-volt circuit. You also must have a dedicated station installed at your home, and installation must be done by a professional. The charge time is 1 to 3 hours.
  • Direct current fast charging is the fastest, but it's not compatible with all EVs and is not suitable for home use.

When you call M.J. Carr Electrical Services, one of our professional EV charger installers will assess your home's electrical capabilities and needs and discuss your options for at-home charging.
