  • You have probably noticed the public charging stations at shopping centers, grocery stores, and other commercial buildings. If you’re new to the world of EV charging, you might be less aware of home EV chargers. Most EV owners have some type of charger for their vehicle at home, but the quality, type, and speed of their charger can vary. That is why many EV owners turn to professionals for EV station installation within their homes.

  • If you have started looking into installing an EV charger in your home, you may have been confused by the different “Levels” of chargers. EV chargers come in three basic categories: Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3. The first step when deciding to install a charger in your home is to understand these different types of chargers. The differences between these chargers include the following:

    • Level 1 Charger – This is the most basic type of charger. Most electric vehicles will come with a Level 1 charger at the time of purchase. Level 1 chargers plug into a standard three-pronged outlet. So, no installation is required. However, Level 1 chargers are also the slowest options, often taking more than 20 hours to fully charge your car’s battery.
    • Level 2 Charger – The next step up is a Level 2 charger. Level 2 chargers can charge EV batteries much quicker than Level 1 chargers, often fully charging a battery in just three hours. However, a Level 2 charger requires its own dedicated 240-volt circuit, which you will need a professional electrician to help you install.
    • Level 3 Charger – DC fast chargers, this type is not available for home installation. Level 3 chargers are most commonly found in public charging stations at commercial properties. They are capable of adding 160 miles of driving range in just half an hour. We can install a DC fast charger at any commercial property.
  • Selecting the right type of EV charger is not too difficult for most EV owners. Some people may be satisfied with a Level 1 charger if they don’t drive very much. However, if you plan to be an EV owner for the foreseeable future, you will most likely want to upgrade to a Level 2 charger at some point. The additional convenience of faster charging will make your EV ownership significantly more enjoyable and worth the investment. Mr. Electric of St. Paul is here to help you with your Level 2 electric car charger installation whenever you are ready.
