How hard is it to install an electric vehicle charging station?

Installing an electric vehicle charger is going to be very challenging if not impossible for someone who is not very skilled in the trades. If you’re a DIYer and can follow youtube videos and trust yourself with your electricity then you could probably manage on your own. We still suggest that you have supervision while attempting this activity.

The average homeowner might be able to install a 120v charger, the average handyman might be able to install the 160v unit, and the 100 amp unit is definitely going to require a professional.

For our electricians, it’s not a very hard job. Depending on the site it could take 2-4 hours. Again the site is very important to think about. The drywall in your garage is going to need to look great once we leave and you have your new charging station.

This type of job can require two guy and 4 hours just to make sure that we maintain the aesthetics of your walls in your garage.

How does RU Electrical Service install electric vehicle chargers?

1. Meet with the customer
2. Evaluate the job site
3. Discuss how the customer would like the job done
4. Determine the location of the charger
5. Determine what system they’re using and the wiring requirements
6. Obtain access to the attic space or drill to the outside of the house and conduit over depending on what is above the garage
7. Next, install the box
8. pull the wire in
9. Install the receptacle
10. Test everything for function and safety
11. Turn on the power and make sure it works

What kind of options do I have when installing a new EV charger?

When you have a tesla, then you are going to buy from them. Tesla has a great charger.

When you buy a Volt, they have their own charger also.

The only time you will find a different option is if you’re looking at buying a used charger. Those can be found on eBay.

Siemens and GE do have chargers but I really recommend getting yours from the manufacturer. If you are in the market for an electric charger for your vehicle we recommend Tesla. They have the best tech.

You can use pretty much any kind of charger on a Tesla vehicle but no other vehicle can use the Tesla supercharger besides Tesla.

Can I install an electric vehicle charging station myself?

The average homeowner is going to want to hire this job out to a professional. If you have all of the tools and a good working knowledge of electrical as well as carpentry then you may be able to install this by yourself. Once you get into the higher powered charger, like the ones that use 100amps, you will want to abandon the DIY spirit as that can involve upgrading the entire service to a higher power.
