Determining Whether Installation Is Possible Or Not:

The very first step in the process of installing your residential charger is determining whether your residence's pre-existing installation system has enough power capacity to sustain a domestic charging station or not. To clarify this, you can contact your area's electric vehicle dealer or power supplier. There will probably be questions regarding the place you live in – whether it is a single-family residence (apartment, condominium, etc.), as well as about the electrical system present in your residence- whether it complies with the set regulations and standards.  

Assessment For The Installation:

The installation of your residence is generally inspected by a professional electrician. You can either search for one yourself or ask your EV dealership to recommend a good electrician. Once this is done, the installer will come to your residence and inspect it. If your house already has a dedicated charging circuit then the installation will be done easily. If not, you may need to add some upgrades. Once the location is determined, you would need to opt for either a wall-mounted charger or a pedestal-mounted one.

Installing The Charger:

Whether your residence needs upgrades to accommodate the charging equipment or your house already has a dedicated charging circuit, the installation of the utility should be done only by a professional electrician who has enough experience. Before hiring someone to install the unit for charging your electric vehicle, ensure that the person has received special training for installing domestic charging stations. By doing so, you can be rest assured that the person you have hired for installing your residence's charging station performs the task safely and with precision. Moreover, it will also ensure that the charging terminal locked in for the job complies with the safety standards and regulations of your state or country.
