Why Upgrade Your Electrical Panel
Electrical panel upgrades are often necessary if you plan to install an L2 charger for your EV and have an electrical panel of less than 200 amps. Upgrading your home’s electrical panel will help your home run more efficiently and increase the safety and efficacy of your electrical systems.
Installing an additional 200 amps of electrical service for a charger provides additional benefits:
- Increased energy efficiency and potential energy cost savings.
- Reduced risks of electrical fires or malfunction of an old panel.
- Added capacity for electric devices and appliances or room additions.
- Enhanced property value when selling your home.
