Home installation
If you plan to utilize Level 1 charging, you likely have everything you need already. Most vehicles come with a level 1 charge cord. All you need is a standard 120V wall outlet to plug it into.
If you plan to utilize Level 2 charging, you will need to purchase a Level 2 charging station and consult with a licensed electrician to power it. Level 2 units can be hardwired or plugged into a 240V outlet (also known as a dryer outlet). If you already have a 240V outlet where you park, installation may be simple. Before purchasing a charging system, we recommend consulting with a licensed electrician to confirm your electric capacity and to install the type of outlet needed for your desired charging system.
