Level 1 vs. Level 2 Charging
Level 1 uses a standard 120-volt outlet and adds only a few miles of range per hour, which is often not enough for daily driving, especially in a New England winter. Level 2 uses a dedicated 240-volt circuit and typically adds about 20 to 40 miles of range per hour depending on your car and charger, so you wake up to a full battery. Nearly all of our home installs are Level 2.
Hardwired Wall Charger or 240V Outlet?
Hardwired Wall Charger
A charger wired directly to its own circuit, like a Tesla Wall Connector or ChargePoint Home Flex. It's usually the fastest option your car can use, it looks clean, and it's a great choice for outdoor installs. Hardwiring also avoids nuisance tripping that some plug-in chargers can have on the GFCI protection code requires for garage and outdoor outlets.
NEMA 14-50 Outlet
A 240-volt outlet you plug a portable or wall-mounted charger into. It's flexible if you want to take your charger with you or switch brands later. We install it on a properly sized dedicated circuit with the required protection.
We're brand-neutral and install all the major chargers, including Tesla, ChargePoint, Wallbox, Enphase, and more. Not sure which to buy? We'll recommend one that fits your car, your panel, and your budget.
Do You Need a Panel Upgrade for an EV Charger?
Not always. We start with a load calculation to see how much capacity your home has. From there, there are three common paths:
- Add the circuit: if your service has room, we simply add a dedicated circuit for the charger.
- Use a load management device: if capacity is tight, a load management device can automatically slow or pause charging when the rest of your home is using a lot of power, often avoiding a costly service upgrade.
- Upgrade your service: if you're also adding a heat pump or other big loads, a panel or service upgrade may be the best long-term fix.
Detached Garages, Driveways & Long Runs
Plenty of homes in the Lakes Region and southern Maine have a detached garage or a long driveway. We handle long conduit runs and trenching to get power where you park, install outdoor-rated chargers built for New England winters, and set up a subpanel in a detached garage when it makes sense, so you have room for lights, outlets, and tools too.
EV Charger Rebates & Incentives
Rebates and incentives for home EV chargers change often and depend on your utility. Before you buy, check with your electric provider (such as Eversource, NHEC, or Unitil in New Hampshire, or CMP in Maine) for current programs.
