Charge Your Electric Vehicle at Home, Faster
You invested in an electric vehicle for its performance and convenience. But are you still using a slow Level 1 charger that takes all night to give you a partial charge? It’s time for an upgrade. At WaveRider Electric & Automation, we provide professional Level 2 EV Charger Installation so you can wake up to a full charge every morning. As an Electrical Engineer, I ensure your charger is installed safely and that your home’s electrical system can handle the load, protecting both your vehicle and your home.
The Benefits of a Level 2 Home Charger
A professionally installed Level 2 charger is a game-changer for EV owners in communities like Wilmington and Leland.
Faster Charging: Charge your EV up to 10 times faster than a standard wall outlet. A typical 4-hour charge can add up to 100 miles of range.
Convenience: Forget about planning your day around public charging stations. Just plug in when you get home and you’re ready to go.
Increased Home Value: A dedicated EV charger is a major selling point for future buyers as the market for electric vehicles grows.
Take Advantage of Tax Credits: Homeowners can receive a federal tax credit for 30% of the cost of installation, up to $1,000.
Our EV Charger Installation Process
We make the process simple and transparent. We handle all types of chargers, including Tesla Wall Connectors, ChargePoint, JuiceBox, and more.
Consultation & Load Calculation: We discuss your driving habits, vehicle type, and assess your home’s current electrical capacity.
Panel Assessment: Many homes, especially older ones like those in Southport and Wilmington, may require an electrical panel upgrade to safely handle the continuous load of an EV charger. We’ll tell you exactly what you need.
Charger Installation: We install a dedicated 240-volt circuit and your new Level 2 charger in your garage or other preferred location.
Testing & Education: We test the charger to ensure it’s delivering the correct power and show you how to use it most effectively
Why an Engineer Should Install Your Charger
An EV charger is one of the most demanding appliances in your home. If it’s not installed correctly, it can overload your system, cause nuisance trips, or even create a fire hazard. My background as an Electrical Engineer means I have the expertise to perform precise load calculations and design a system that is both safe and efficient. Don’t trust this important job to a handyman.
