Simplify Your EV Charging Experience with a Home EV Charger
Anyone who owns or is thinking about buying an electric vehicle also needs to factor in a home charging station. While you can charge at public stations, that quickly grows tiresome as you deal with chargers already in use, chargers that are constantly out of service, and other mitigating issues. You can avoid all of that with a home EV charger.
Exploring Level 2 Home Chargers: Convenience, Cost, and Compatibility
Level 2 home chargers are slower than commercial DC fast chargers, but more than quick enough to charge your car during the hours you’re at home, which may coincide with your electric company’s off-peak pricing (many of these chargers allow scheduling).
Automakers sell their own branded 240-volt Level 2 chargers for the home, but apart from Tesla, all EVs use the Common Charging System (CCS), giving you more economical alternatives in the aftermarket. Some chargers are designed for outdoor use, while others are best suited for garage installation. Many of these charging units also connect to smartphone apps so that you can monitor the charging status from anywhere.
The variety in capabilities of these various chargers makes them an attractive alternative to the dedicated automaker chargers. Prices for these third party chargers range from $800.00 to $1300.00 for the chargers themselves. Then you need to add the cost of wiring these units.
Understanding the Factors Affecting Home EV Charger Installation Costs
There is no flat-rate or price range to consider when installing a home EV charger. It depends on your home’s electrical service (the total amps feeding from the street into the circuit breaker), the amps your charging station requires or that you desire, whether you use a wall mount or an exterior pole mount, and the length and type of wiring from the breaker to the charger.
Ensuring a Smooth EV Charger Installation
Most homes only have a limited number of high-amp 240-volt circuits for air conditioning, a clothes dryer, and an electric oven. A home EV charging station requires its own dedicated circuit. If you are in a newer house with high-amp service and install the charger within a few feet from your breaker, installation could cost a few hundred dollars. It’s entirely dependent on the setup of your home and where your charger is going.
