Why You Shouldn’t DIY Your Charger Setup
Trying to install an EV charger on your own can be dangerous, and in some areas, it may even violate electrical codes. Without the right knowledge, you could damage your vehicle, overload your system, or create a serious fire hazard. Hiring a licensed electrician makes the difference between a reliable system and a risky shortcut. Here’s what could go wrong without professional installation:

Common Electric Car Charger Questions:
1. “Does my electrical panel have enough room for an EV charger?”
This is the most common question we get. A standard Level 2 charger requires a dedicated 40–60 amp circuit. While many modern 200-amp panels can handle this easily, older 100-amp panels might require an upgrade or a ‘Smart Load Manager.’ We perform a full load calculation during our visit to ensure your home remains safe and code-compliant without tripping breakers.
2. “How much faster is a Level 2 charger compared to a standard wall outlet?”
“It’s a night and day difference. A standard 120V wall outlet (Level 1) adds about 3–5 miles of range per hour—meaning a full charge could take days. Our professional Level 2 (240V) installations provide 25–45 miles of range per hour, allowing most EVs to go from empty to 100% in a single overnight session.”
3. “Are there any tax credits or rebates available for installation?”
“Yes! Under the current federal ‘Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property Credit,’ homeowners in many areas can claim a tax credit of up to 30% of the cost of the charger and installation (up to $1,000). Additionally, many local utility companies offer instant rebates. We stay up-to-date on all local incentives and will provide you with the necessary documentation to claim your savings.”
4. How long does an EV charger installation take?
Usually 2–4 hours, depending on wiring distance, panel location, and any upgrades required. Our electricians work efficiently while maintaining strict safety and code standards, ensuring your Level 2 EV charger is installed correctly without rushing the job.
5. Do I need a panel upgrade first?
Not always. Before installing your EV charger, our electrician performs a load calculation on your home’s electrical service to ensure the main panel can safely handle the added demand. If sufficient capacity is available, no upgrade is needed. If not, we’ll explain your options and recommend only what’s necessary to prevent overloading and keep your home code-compliant and safe
6. “Can I just install a 240V ‘Dryer Outlet’ and plug my charger in?”
“While possible, we almost always recommend a hardwired installation. Hardwiring allows for higher amperage (faster charging), eliminates a point of failure (the outlet), and is required by many local codes for outdoor installations. It also looks much cleaner and provides a more secure, permanent connection for your home’s most power-hungry appliance.”
7. Can you install Tesla chargers?
Yes—we install Tesla Wall Connectors and all Level 2 EV chargers. Our licensed electricians are qualified to install all major EV charger brands and ensure each system is set up for maximum charging efficiency, safety, and code compliance.
