Electric Vehicle Chargers: Installation, Repair And Maintenance

Electric vehicles (EVs) are a smart choice for anyone interested in reducing their reliance on fossil fuels, limiting carbon emissions, and minimizing operating costs.

If you already power your home utilizing solar energy, you are able to complete your electric vehicle charging through your own energy creation. This integrated system gives you the greatest independence from the main energy grid supply to power you through your day, and in a cleaner way.

Electric Vehicle Charger Services

If you have already purchased or are considering purchasing an EV, it is helpful to understand the different levels of electric vehicle chargers.

  • Level 1: Uses a standard 120V outlet and is the slowest charging option, taking 12-20 hours to fully charge a vehicle. 
  • Level 2: Uses a 240V outlet and can fully charge most EVs in 4-8 hours and is most commonly found in homes, workplaces, and public spaces. 
  • Level 3: Provides rapid charging, restoring an EV’s battery to 80% in as little as 30 minutes and is typically found along highways for long-distance travel.

As an electrical contractor, Waveform is able to install electric vehicle charging stations (Level 2) in your home so that you are able to restore your battery conveniently overnight.

Why Choose Waveform Electric For Electric Vehicle Charging And Related Services?

We understand that you have options in who you choose to install your electric vehicle charging station. Waveform is an excellent choice because we aren’t just looking at the EV charging unit itself; rather, we understand and consider the broader electrical system in your home.

It is important to think about the anticipated additional draw on your electrical system and which additions can be reliably supported. For older homes, panel upgrades may be required as they simply weren’t designed to support the level of demand most homeowners and families place on their systems today.

Some homeowners may begin their transition to a cleaner energy economy through the purchase of an EV and then be curious about how they could integrate a fully renewable energy system by adding solar and battery storage to power their entire home.

Other folks may be in the planning process for remodels and are interested to ‘future proof’ their electrical design to ensure capacity for their coming energy needs, including a new electric vehicle charger installation.  

Waveform Electric is here to deliver the most appropriate energy solution for you. Whether the focus is exclusively on a home electric vehicle charging station installation or there is a broader request for integrated renewable system installations, our team of skilled technicians will be able to meet you were you are to provide a comprehensive, high-quality, and professional electrical service.

Reach out to our team at 831-215-1653 or our website so we can get your EV charger installed as soon and as smoothly as possible.
