Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to install an EV charger in Aurora, CO?

For a Level 2 EV charger, the installation cost typically ranges from $1,200 to $2,500, not including the charger unit itself. This can vary based on your home’s existing electrical system and the complexity of the wiring required.

Do I need an electrical panel upgrade for an EV charger?

Possibly. Level 2 chargers require a dedicated 240-volt circuit. If your current electrical panel does not have enough capacity or available space, an upgrade may be necessary. Our electricians will assess your panel during the consultation.

How long does EV charger installation take?

Most standard Level 2 EV charger installations can be completed in a single day, usually within 4-8 hours. More complex installations requiring significant wiring or panel upgrades may take longer.

Can I install an EV charging station myself?

We strongly advise against DIY EV charger installation. It involves high-voltage wiring, specific electrical codes, and safety protocols that require a licensed and experienced electrician. Improper installation can lead to serious hazards, including electrical fires and shock.

Are there rebates or incentives available for EV charger installation in Colorado?

Yes, there are! Denver County offers the CARe rebate, Xcel Energy has various programs, and there's a federal tax credit (Inflation Reduction Act 25C). Our team helps you identify eligible programs and can assist with the application process.

Will my EV charger be compatible with all electric vehicles?

Most Level 2 chargers use the J1772 connector, which is standard for most North American EVs. Tesla vehicles use a proprietary connector but come with an adapter to use J1772 chargers. We will ensure the charger you choose is compatible with your vehicle.

What's the difference between Level 1 and Level 2 charging?

Level 1 uses a standard 120V outlet and provides a slow trickle charge (3-5 miles per hour). Level 2 uses a 240V circuit, providing significantly faster charging (20-60 miles per hour), making it ideal for daily use and full overnight charges.
