What is the process to install an EV charging point at my home?

To properly charge an electric vehicle, EV chargers necessitate a 30, 40, 50, or 60 amp outlet, which can be a considerable additional load for most households. Hence, it is essential to consult with an electrician for a quote once you decide to purchase an electric vehicle, preferably before taking possession of the vehicle. You want to make sure your electrical system is prepared for the arrival of an EV. Make sure you have a clear understanding of your charging needs and specifications when requesting an installation.

Done’s team of expert electricians will come to your property and thoroughly assess the situation. We will be able to confirm if your electrical panel can handle the additional load from the charging outlet. Our team will also be able to determine additional costs associated with connecting your electric panel to the location of the EV charger station itself. The duration of most EV charger installations can range from a few hours to a full day or more, with many installations completed within a day. However, it’s not possible to estimate the exact time and cost of an EV charger installation without a visit from one of our licensed electricians for an on-site evaluation.
