Home EV Charging Done the Right Way

Installing an EV charger is more than mounting equipment on a wall. The electrical system must be evaluated for the charging load, the circuit must be properly sized, and the installation should fit how and where you park and charge.

Dedicated EV Circuits

New dedicated circuits sized for the selected charger and the electrical requirements of the installation.

Panel Capacity Evaluation

Panel Upgrades When Needed

If the existing panel or service is not suitable for the planned charging load, we can discuss appropriate upgrade options.

Garage & Exterior Locations

Installation planning for practical charger placement based on parking location, routing and the property layout.

EV Charger FAQs

EV Charging Questions

What is a Level 2 EV charger?

Level 2 charging uses a higher-voltage residential circuit than a standard household receptacle and can provide substantially faster home charging. The exact charging rate depends on the vehicle, charger and electrical circuit.

Do I need a dedicated circuit for an EV charger?

Most permanently installed or higher-powered residential EV charging equipment uses a dedicated circuit. The correct circuit size depends on the charger and installation requirements.

Will I need a new electrical panel?

Not necessarily. We evaluate your existing panel, service capacity, available space and other electrical loads before recommending an upgrade. Many installations can be completed without replacing the panel.

Can you install a charger I already purchased?

In many cases, yes, provided the charger is appropriate for the property and installation. We can review the equipment and electrical requirements before the work begins.

Where can the EV charger be installed?

Common locations include garages and exterior parking areas. The best location depends on where the vehicle parks, the electrical panel location, routing, equipment rating and property layout.

Do you serve areas outside Lafayette?

Yes. We serve Lafayette and nearby Acadiana communities including Broussard, Youngsville, Scott, Carencro, Duson and surrounding areas.
