If you haven’t already looked into electric vehicle charging batteries, now is a good time to start. Most home car charging systems are either Level 1 or Level 2, and here’s more information to help you out:
If you haven’t yet cleaned out your garage, this is the time to do it. Clear out your junk and make space for an electric vehicle home charger.
The power panel in your home distributes electricity throughout the entire building. It should be rated for a maximum amount of current flow measured in Amperes. Most new homes come with a 100 Amp power panel, but there should be an amperage rating printed on the main circuit breaker.
Next, you should hire an electrician. They’ll tell you how to prepare your home for an electric vehicle, including summarizing your power consumption. This should cost a few hundred dollars, but it might cost more if they find your power panel isn’t sufficient and needs to be upgraded.
If you haven’t already researched and purchased an EV charger at this point, it would be the right time to look this up. The electrician will install it for you.
