Installing an electric vehicle (EV) level 2 charging station is not a do-it-yourself project. It is important to have a charging station installed by a specialized licensed contractor. This will help protect the integrity of your EV and your home’s wiring. 

Here are some basic charging station safety tips:

• Read and follow the car manufacturer’s instructions.
• Use charging equipment that is sold or endorsed by the EV manufacturer.
• To prevent a home fire or other hazards, have the charger installed by a licensed contractor.
• An inadequate power supply can cause an electrical circuit overload and electrical fire.
• Keep charging components out of children’s reach.
