What to know before installing a home EV charging station
The right electric car charger installation depends on three things: how far you drive, where you park and how much capacity your panel has to spare. Most drivers are well served by a 40 or 48 amp charger on a dedicated circuit. If your Houghton Lake Heights home has a 100 amp service, that does not automatically rule out EVSE installation. Load management devices and lower-amperage settings often make it work without a full service upgrade, and we will tell you which route makes sense.
