Benefits of an On-Site EV Charger
As the number of electric vehicles in Philadelphia grows, having a dedicated charger at home or work becomes increasingly important. On-site charging is faster and more convenient than relying on public stations and allows you to manage charging schedules.
Planning Your EV Charger Installation
Installing an EV charger is often more than simply mounting the unit. Your electrical system must handle the additional load safely. Older homes may need panel upgrades or rewiring, while commercial properties might require multiple chargers with balanced circuits for employees or customers.
Consider installing an EV charger if you frequently rely on public stations, are planning to purchase an EV or expand your fleet, or if your current wiring and outlets may not support high-load devices safely. A professional assessment from Jim & Sons Electric identifies the most efficient installation approach, manages any necessary electrical upgrades, and ensures compliance with local codes; all while minimizing disruption to your daily activities.

Helpful Questions Homeowners Have
Do I need to upgrade my electrical panel for an EV charger?
Many Philadelphia homes can handle Level 1 chargers without an upgrade. However, Level 2 chargers often require additional electrical capacity. Jim & Sons Electric can inspect your panel and recommend upgrades if needed.
