  • Conventional cars can be refilled at any gas station, but EVs need a specific kind of infrastructure for charging. When plugged into a charging station, EVs convert the AC power from the electrical grid into DC power with the help of in-built converters. This DC power is then used to recharge the vehicle's battery. An EV communicates with a DC fast charger when plugged in to charge efficiently and safely.

Types of EV Chargers

Several leading auto manufacturers offer electric or hybrid vehicles. Choosing the right charger for your specific EV can seem daunting, but our experts are ready to guide you in selecting the ideal EV charger for your needs. The most popular types of EV charging stations are:

Level 1 Charger

Typically included with your EV purchase, the Level 1 charger is designed to connect to any standard three-prong outlet. It takes around 20 hours to fully charge your EV battery, making it a superb option for those who prefer to charge their vehicles overnight.

Level 2 Charger

A dedicated 240-volt circuit is needed for a Level 2 charger to deliver optimal charging. These fast EV chargers, which need professional installation within your home, can recharge your EV's battery from zero to full in merely three hours.

Level 3 Charger

A Level 3 charge is found at public charging stations. These incredible fast EV chargers with industrial power can replenish a battery supply in 30 minutes and add an extra 160 miles to your driving range.

Benefits of Home EV Chargers

Equipping your home with an EV charger does away with the hassle of locating a local charging station, allowing you to conveniently power your vehicle at your residence. Some of the most significant benefits of EV charger installation services include:

Ease-of-Use
