Houston EV Charger Installation

Level 2 EV Charger Installation in Houston, Texas and Surrounding Areas

Every year, there are more and more electric cars on the road. This is because more and more people want to save money on gas and reduce their impact on the earth.

Be prepared for your new EV car and have your breaker box and plugs installed at you home. EV chargers can be put in by ESP Electrical Services in the greater Houston area.

What are the benefits of installing an electric vehicle charger?

Even though you can use a regular plug and a Level 1 charger to charge an electric car, the process is faster and easier if you have an electric vehicle charger installed at home.

Finding and using public EV chargers takes time and effort. If you can charge your car at home, you don’t have to.

A Dedicated Electric Vehicle Charger has benefits like:

• You can charge your car overnight.
• Faster charge times as little as three hours.
• Less need for charge stations in public places.

What electrical needs do I have to meet to put an EV charger in my home?

The electrical needs for installing an EV charger in your home depend on the type of charger and your current electrical system. Most EV chargers for homes need a separate 240-volt outlet with at least 40 amps.

This usually needs a dedicated circuit from your electrical panel to the place where the EV charger will be installed. Also, the electrical panel might need to be updated to handle the extra electricity that the EV charger will use.

You should talk to a trained electrician at ESP Electrical Services about your specific electrical system to make sure it meets the requirements for safe and effective EV charger installation in your home.

Do I Need a Licensed Electrician to Install an EV Charger?

To provide the necessary power, you will need to have an EV electrician install a circuit, and this work should only be performed by a properly trained and qualified professional EV electrician.

There are options for level one, two, and three EV chargers, and we provide the most recent and energy-efficient charging systems to meet any need.

• Level 1 – This is the most basic EV charger, which can be used with the standard 120-volt electrical service found in most homes. Although this method can be used to charge your vehicle, it is inefficient and time-consuming.
• Level 2 – Level 2 EV chargers require a 240-volt circuit, which our electricians can install for you. Without the use of public charging stations, a dedicated EV charger allows you to charge your vehicle faster.
• Level 3 – These are the quickest way to charge an electric vehicle. They are also known as DC fast chargers. This is the type of charger that is commonly found in commercial charging stations near major highways, but many EV electricians are also installing them at their customers’ homes.

We can assist you in exploring your options and selecting the best electric vehicle charger for your home. Our EV electricians are fully trained and equipped to provide the best quality materials, meticulous workmanship, and attention to detail for EV charger installation in Houston.
