EV Charger Installation in Atlanta GA 

There are some important factors to consider for an EV charger installment or upgrade. If your charger is not charging fast enough, you may be operating on a Level 1 charging station or a standard household outlet (i.e., a three-pronged 110-volt or 120-volt outlet).

This solution is the quickest and easiest way to get a charging station in your home, in which an accelerated charging time is not a main priority. Or, in other words, an out-of-the-box solution that comes standard with every electric vehicle.

Typically, a common 120-volt charging station outlet is for individuals who have smaller batteries and don't have very far commutes. But, with the newer EVs, which are equipped with larger batteries, a 120-volt station is too small and slow for daily use.

Your household demands and charging usages change, and we can understand. That's why you may need to consider a Level 2 charging station installment.

A Level 2 charging station can charge up to 10 times faster than a Level 1 charging station. These can, on average, charge between 10 and 80 miles per hour, so it's great for both residential and commercial usage—at home, work, or at malls and parks.

Level 2 chargers deliver higher amperage and voltage, which means a DIY installation and replacement is not recommended, as this requires adjusting and upgrading your electrical wiring setup between the outlet and your power box.

More specifically, a Level 2 Charger utilizes a 240-volt outlet, along with a 40-amp circuit. It can be placed both inside and outside, such as in garages, side of the home, or in parking lots.

This is not a plug-and-play solution, as it requires an expert EV charger electrician.
