Home EV Charging Station Levels

Lemberg offers home EV charging station installation services for all Level 1 and Level 2 EV chargers.

Level 1 (120 volts)

Level 1 EV charging uses a standard household outlet and is the slowest and lowest power option for home charging. Most EVs come with a Level 1 charger included. It takes up to 24 hours to fully charge your EV, providing about 4 miles of range per hour of charging. Although it's the simplest option, it's essential to consult an expert electrician to avoid overloading your outlet's circuit.

Level 2 (240 volts)

Level 2 EV charging is the most popular and cost-effective household charger. They are much faster than Level 1 chargers and can charge an EV up to 80% in half an hour to 40 minutes, with a range of 20-30 miles per hour of charging.

Additional equipment is required for a Level 2 charger. A professional electrician must install a 240-volt outlet in your place of charging and upgrade your home's electrical panel and surge protection if necessary for correct installation.

Benefits of Installing a Level 2 EV Charger in Your Home

Installing a Level 2 EV charging station at home provides the convenience of fast charging your EV overnight or anytime you desire. This will eliminate the need for frequent trips to public charging stations, helping you save money in charging costs.

While utilizing public Level 3 DC chargers can be fast and convenient, they can also degrade your EV battery over time and shouldn’t be used as your only charging source. With a home EV Level 2 charger, you can ensure a consistent and reliable charging experience so you get the most out of your EV’s battery life and performance.

What You Need to Know About EV Charging Stations: The FAQs

+-

Do you need an electrician to install a home EV charger?

It's crucial to choose an electrician with specific expertise in EV charger installations. Installing an EV charger involves more than just a standard electrical outlet, as it requires a higher voltage and proper wiring to handle the charging load. Look for an electrician experienced in handling EV chargers, familiar with different brands and models, and knowledgeable about local electrical codes.

Not only will hiring a certified electrician ensure the charger hookup meets all national compliance and installation requirements laws, but many EV charging points require installation by a certified contractor to obtain their warranty.

+-

Is it worth the investment to install a level 2 home charger?

Level 2 home chargers are a cost-effective choice for the typical commuter. They provide added convenience compared to Level 1 charging, allowing you to use your electric vehicle without compromising your daily schedule and mobility.

Although Level 2 EV chargers have additional installation costs compared to level 1 chargers, these expenses can be offset over time by not having to make as many stops at public charging stations, which often require a charging fee.

+-

What is EVSE in EV charging?

Electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) supplies electricity to an electric vehicle (EV). Also known as charging stations or charging docks, they supply electric power to the vehicle and use that to recharge the vehicle's batteries.

+-

Do I need to be connected to a network for my charger to work?

A network or wireless connection will be needed for commercial settings to allow payments, remote diagnostics and other cloud-based features, or location services to get your charger on digital map services like Google maps.

Although, for home and other locations where the charger is being used privately, a network may not be needed. Landlords for multi-unit residential buildings who wish to charge tenants a fee for using a charging station can simplify the option by adding a charge onto rent similar to a parking spot or pet fee.

Lemberg’s Data Communications team can assist with your on-property network connectivity for your new EV charging stations.
