Electric Vehicle Charger

An electric vehicle’s (EV) ability to quickly recharge depends on two primary factors: a home’s electrical supply, and the type of EV charging unit used. EV chargers are broken down into three levels, one through three, with level one chargers being the slowest and level three chargers being the fastest.

Level 1 chargers are the slowest of all types of EV chargers. They are usually supplied with your electric vehicle and rely on a home’s electrical outlet. Thus, this type of charger is most suitable for slow overnight & weekend charging.

A level 2 charger is the next step up and uses a 240-volt (like an air conditioner or range), which makes it more powerful than a level 1. For short trips with infrequent charging, this can be the ideal option as it charges much faster than a level 1 charger. Level 2 Chargers offer a faster recharge time than level 1. These chargers require professional installation and connect directly to the vehicle via a 240v wall outlet. Level 2 has become the industry standard due to offering efficient recharge times, while still being cost-effective.

Level 3 EV chargers are incredibly fast and can recharge an electric vehicle to 80% battery in about 30 minutes. Level 3 chargers require an industrial supply of power and as such are not typically possible to install at home.
