Installing a Level 2 EV charging station requires running 240 volts from your breaker panel to your charging location, which is typically the garage.
This is a job that’s best left to the pros! Thankfully, it’s easy to find a qualified electrician when you choose EV Home Charging.
All electrical contractors in our network must comply with our strict certification standards. They are required to show proof of a current electrical license, liability insurance and workers’ compensation insurance (if applicable). We also run background checks on our electricians. You should feel good knowing that your electrician will have the necessary licensing and a clean background.
No matter which electrician you choose from EV Home Charging, you can expect them to be:
- Licensed
- Bonded
- Insured
- Background checked
What does all of this mean for you? Let’s find out!
Licensed
Choosing a licensed electrician is imperative for any type of electrical work. An electrician who is licensed in the United States has passed the state exam and will follow the safety guidelines set forth by the National Electrical Code. This doesn’t necessarily mean that an unlicensed electrician isn’t safe, but they likely don’t have the proper training. Always go with a licensed electrician!
Bonded
A bond is a type of insurance policy in which the contractor pays a premium. It guarantees that the contractor will meet their obligations in a satisfactory manner. If they don’t, you are protected, and you will be reimbursed by the bonding company. Having a bonded worker is extra assurance for you, something that is especially crucial when working with electricity.
Insured
Insurance protects you and the electrician coming to your home. Every electrician is required to have general liability insurance, as this will cover property damage or bodily injury caused to others as a result of their work or operations. Electricity is highly technical – one error or misjudgment can result in a loss.
