What Type of Charging Station Does a Tesla Need?

There are three levels of charging for electric vehicles: 

Level 1 Charging: Uses a standard 120-volt outlet and is the slowest method. It can take anywhere from 8 to 20 hours to fully charge an electric vehicle, depending on the battery size.

Level 2 Charging: Uses a 240-volt outlet, similar to those used for electric dryers or ovens. It is the most common type for home use and can charge a vehicle in 4 to 8 hours, depending on the battery size and the charger’s power output.

Level 3 Charging (DC Fast Charging): Level 3 is also known as DC fast charging, and it’s primarily found at public charging stations. It can charge a Tesla to 80% in as little as 20-30 minutes, depending on the vehicle and the charging station's power output.

How to Choose the Right Charging Station

As we mentioned, there are many different types of charging stations on the market. The best charging station for your home or business will depend on your needs and your car.

When you hire our electricians to install a Tesla charging station, we will work with you to choose the right product. We can help you find a charging station that is compatible with your car and that meets your budget.

Here are a few things to consider when choosing a charging station:

• Amperage: Charging stations are typically available in 30-amp, 40-amp, and 50-amp models. A 30-amp charging station will charge your car more slowly than a 50-amp model. The best charging station for your car will depend on the size of your car’s battery, the size of your electrical panel, and your electrical needs.
• Installation: Charging stations require a dedicated circuit. Our electricians can help you find the best place to install your charging station and ensure that it is installed correctly.
• Connectivity: Some charging stations can be connected to the internet or to your smartphone, so you can monitor your charging status and other information about your vehicle. Some charging stations even have built-in Wi-Fi, so you can connect to the internet without a smartphone.

Installing a Tesla Charging Station in Your Garage

Charging your Tesla in your garage is the most convenient option, and it can save you money on your installation. Charging stations can be installed on the wall or a pole. Wall-mounted charging stations are the most common type of charging station for home use.

Our electricians can install a charging station on the wall of your garage and ensure that it is properly wired and grounded. We can also install a dedicated circuit for your charging station, so you can charge your car without worrying about overloading the circuit.

Installing a Tesla Charging Station Outside Your Home

If you don’t have a garage or if you don’t want to charge your car in your garage, you can install a charging station outside your home. Charging stations for outdoor use are typically more expensive than wall-mounted charging stations because they need to be waterproof and weatherproof.

Outdoor charging stations also require a dedicated circuit, so you will need to have a new circuit installed. Our electricians can help you find the best place to install your charging station and ensure that it is properly wired and grounded.
