"There's a lot of movement as far as electrical systems and homes and an integration with power because there's a lot more adapting with electricity in your home,"
"Someone who's going to help you through it proactively, compared to just reactively getting something and not knowing how it's going to integrate with the house,"
"You really want to call in advance and talk to somebody local, or get a site visit to make sure your house can manage what you're wanting to do,"
"Charging at home is the most convenient place to charge. And it is the most affordable. On average, it costs about a third to charge your EV at home versus a gasoline vehicle."
Electric vehicle charging infrastructure has advanced for public and private use, including home and workplace charging. Homeowners should consult a local electrician before purchasing residential charging equipment to ensure compatibility, capacity, and proper integration with home electrical systems. Improperly selected or installed chargers may require replacement or operate inefficiently. Proactive site visits and planning help confirm whether a house can support desired charging levels. Home charging generally offers the greatest convenience and lowest operating cost, often costing about one-third the fuel expense compared with gasoline vehicles, producing substantial savings for owners.
