These chargers require a 240-volt outlet, similar to what is used for large appliances like dryers. They offer a faster charging rate, typically adding 10-60 miles of range per hour, making them suitable for daily use and longer commutes. Level 2 chargers often require professional installation.
When installing an EV charger, consider the following:
- Electrical Capacity: Ensure your home’s electrical system can support the additional load of an EV charger.
- Installation Location: Choose a convenient location for the charger, such as your garage or driveway.
- Permits and Codes: Check local regulations and obtain any necessary permits for the installation.
Many utilities and local governments offer rebates and incentives for installing EV chargers. These can significantly reduce the cost of your charger and installation.
