Finding a nearby electric vehicle charging station is the first order of business when you make the switch to a fully-electric car, the same way you probably looked up your nearest gas station for your previous ride. You’ll soon find that one of the greatest benefits of an electric vehicle is at-home charging, so getting your very own charging station set up is an absolute must…
Which Level of Charging Do I Need?
When charging your electric vehicle, you typically use one of three levels of charging. The Level 1 connection usually comes with the purchase of your vehicle and is a simple cord that can be plugged into any standard 120-volt outlet.
Level 2 charging stations are the most common type of connection and are found in both residential and commercial areas. This connection utilizes a 240-volt power outlet and can recharge your depleted battery in as little as eight hours.
The final and fastest form of charging is the Level 3 DC Fast charging connection. These types of chargers are almost entirely commercial but will soon be able to be installed in your home. These chargers can provide 80% of your vehicle’s battery in as little as 30 minutes.
Installing Your Station
If you intend to use your Level 1 charging cable, then no installation is required. Simply find your closest 120-volt power outlet and plug it in! Level 2 connections can also operate this way but require a special 240-volt power outlet which is less common in homes.
If you do not have a 240-volt outlet, a charging station can be installed in your garage. This installation must be done by a licensed electrician, as it will require tapping into your home’s electrical system. Luckily, Chevrolet will cover the standard installation of Level 2 charging outlets for eligible customers, so check the manufacturer’s resources for more information.
If you still have questions about home charging stations, be sure to reach out to Neil Huffman Chevrolet GMC of Frankfort for answers today. Why wait to install yours? You’ll never have to rely on a public charging station ever again!
