Common questions
What homeowners and project teams ask.
Should I buy the charger before requesting an estimate?
You can request an estimate first, but the exact charger model and specifications are needed before the final electrical requirements can be confirmed.
Can a charger be installed outdoors?
Potentially, if the selected equipment and installation location are appropriate. Weather exposure, mounting, routing, parking position, and equipment specifications must be considered.
Will I need a service upgrade?
Not every installation requires one. Existing capacity, household loads, charger demand, and available installation options need to be assessed.
What photos should I provide?
Include the electrical panel with its door and labels visible, the proposed charger location, the parking position, and the likely route between the panel and charger.
