Electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming more common in Chattanooga—and with that comes the need for fast, reliable charging at home. Before you purchase an EV charger, here are a few things to consider.
1. Check Your Electrical Panel Capacity
Your existing panel may need an upgrade to safely handle the added load of an EV charger.
2. Choose the Right Charger Type
Level 1 chargers use a standard outlet but are very slow. Level 2 chargers require professional installation and charge much faster.
3. Permits and Code Compliance
EV charger installations require proper permits and inspections in Tennessee. That’s where we come in.
4. Location Matters
We help you choose the best spot in your garage or driveway to install the charger for convenience and safety.
