EV Charger Installation in Amarillo, TX
If you recently purchased an electrical vehicle you will need to get an EV charger installed. Express Electric provides EV car charger installation services for our valued customers in Amarillo and the greater Texas Panhandle.
When it comes to charging your electric vehicle you can charge with a 120 volt household outlet. But this will take a long time, in most cases people will upgrade to a 240 volt charger to quickly charge your car overnight. Express Electric is here to help you with that install. We will work with you to determine the right setup for your needs and our licensed installers will take care of the job.
REASONS TO INVEST IN A RESIDENTIAL EV CHARGING STATION?
While some models of electric cars can technically be plugged into a standard outlet, doing so comes at great risk. The battery of an electric vehicle requires a lot of power, and some electrical systems may be ill-equipped to handle your needs. In addition to the safety features that charging stations provide, they are also much more energy efficient and can charge most vehicles in less time. This is important for individuals who plan on using their electric car as their primary form of transportation.
WHAT TO CONSIDER WHEN INSTALLING A CAR CHARGER:
Type of plug: Except for Teslas, EVs use an SAE-standard J1772 to plug into the charging stations. Teslas require a slightly different connection, which we also can install.
Charger level: Level 1 chargers are lower voltage, really only efficient for electric golf carts. We're likely to recommend you go with a Level 2 charger, to help cut down charging time and deliver the best voltage to your vehicle.
Amperage: The higher the amps, the faster and more efficiently your car will charge.
