Why a Wall Outlet Won’t Cut It for Your EV
A standard 120-volt outlet will charge an EV, but slowly, usually just a few miles of range per hour. In cold weather, that may not even cover a typical commute. A 240-volt Level 2 charger can replenish most vehicle batteries overnight, which is why many Woburn, MA homeowners consider installing one. The setup requires a dedicated circuit, properly sized wiring, and enough capacity in the electrical panel. We complete every installation under MA License #59750B and according to the current Massachusetts Electrical Code. An EV draws substantial power for several hours, so undersized wiring or loose connections can create dangerous heat.
