EV Chargers · Level 2 at home
A full charge overnight, from a circuit that was built for it.
A Level 2 charger is a 40 to 60 amp appliance that runs for hours. It wants its own circuit, a panel with room to feed it, and a spot the car can reach.
The load calculation comes first
On a 100-amp service with central air and an electric range, a charger often means a bigger service. On 200 amps it is usually one circuit and a permit. Find out before the car arrives.
What the charger job covers:
Load calculation on the existing service- Dedicated 40 to 60 amp circuit
- Hardwired or NEMA 14-50 outlet, your choice
- Indoor garage or outdoor weatherproof mount
- Charger supply and setup, or bring your own
- Permit and inspection
