Call East Cobb Electrician to Install a Car Charging Station
Thrasher electrical contractor can install a car charging station that meets all the local
and national electrical codes. You are no longer obligated to acquire a fast charging station from their dealer. Your East Cobb electrician can install one of the following:
- Leviton
- GE
- Blink
- Voltec
- PSx
The station for recharging your EV’s batteries can as low as be 120 volts, but the charge time is extended out to 14 hours. The ideal charge system uses 240-volt household current. The electrician will need to install a dedicated breaker and cable heavy enough to carry the load. The manufacturer will have specific load requirements for the wire. The correct wire gauge must be used otherwise damage can occur to the charging station. The electrical contractor will determine the needed wire gauge and breaker size.
The contractor or the homeowner will have to inquire about a permit to run wiring if it is required. Each charging station is unique to each vehicle. All vehicle-charging stations are installed using 240 volts and in some instances 120-volt household current. The contractor will run the proper gauge wire from the breaker box and wire up the charging station. There cannot be any other electrical appliances on the same circuit.
