The EV Charging Process
Charging an electric vehicle is easy and convenient, similar to charging your cell phone. EVs have plug-in ports for you to charge the battery. These vehicles have a limited range per charge. Home charging allows you to monitor your vehicle’s power levels to avoid losing power on the road.
There are also many benefits to at-home electric vehicle charging stations, such as
- Privacy
- Cost-efficient
- Convenient
Charging an EV at Home: Costs and Configurations
Many homeowners worry their current electrical grid cannot handle the power to charge their EV. Fortunately, our skilled Winnetka electricians update your residential power grid with an Open Charging Station Controller (OCC). These devices monitor the electrical current flowing through the electrical panel. The OCC shuts off the charger before it reaches the maximum amount and restarts once more electricity is available.
Having an OCC is energy-efficient and cost-efficient, saving you more money on monthly utility bills. However, installation cost depends on multiple factors, including
- The distance of the vehicle from the electrical panel
- Amperage draw of the charger
- Amount of amperage left in the electrical panel for the charger
- Any complications in the current setup of the electrical route to the charger
