What Is an Electric Car Charging Station?

EV chargers, or electric vehicle chargers, are the equivalent of gas pumps for electric vehicles, but charging your electrical vehicle is more similar to charging your smart phone or laptop. Granted, it’s a little more complicated. The voltage or current flow that an electrical vehicle requires is different from that an electronic device requires. EV chargers convert the power into a form that the electric vehicle’s battery pack will accept. Feel free to call HomeOps Electric if you have any specific questions or concerns regarding an electric vehicle charging station installation.

The Different Types of EVSE (Electric Vehicle Service Equipment)

There are three basic types of EVSE, or electric vehicle service equipment. These are aptly named level 1 charging stations, level 2 charging stations, and – you guessed it – level 3 charging stations:

• Level 1 charging stations are the simplest. In fact, a purchase or lease of an electric vehicle usually includes a level 1 charging cable which are simply plugged into a standard wall socket. The simplicity has a drawback. They are slow to charge, giving you a measly four to five miles of battery range for every hour of charge!
• Level 2 charging stations use 240-volt circuits. Though some rooms such as the laundry room have 240-volt circuits, you will likely need to hire an electrician in Rocky Point, NY to run a 240-volt circuit to your garage. HomeOps Electric’s electric vehicle charging station installation in Rocky Point offers this service as well. A level 2 charging station can get you about 200 miles of range with overnight charging (10-12 hours).
• Level 3 charging stations are basically the best chargers, usually found on commercial sites. Premier charging stations can give you a full charge in an hour or less, but their price tag can be staggering. Even if you have that kind of money, the electrical grid in many residential areas do not support a level 3 charging station installation.
