Installing Chargers for Tesla, Hyundai and Nissan electric cars
Since EV (electric vehicle) charging is not universal, you will require the correct charging station for your car.
Tesla, Hyundai and Nissan are three of the market leaders in the electric vehicle market.
Making sure you can charge your EV overnight at your place is of the utmost priority.
Services
There are two options when it comes to Electric Car Power Stations;
1. Installation and charging from a dedicated power circuit
2. Charging from your solar panels
Faster charging can be achieved through a dedicated power circuit.
This might mean your charger will use a full load and might require individual RCD protection.
An added advantage to home owners and renters who have solar panels available is that their electric charging station can be connected to the existing solar panels. This offers an environmentally friendly option to charging your new EV. TO do this you will need a special home charging unit and PV inverter to convert your solar into electricity – but don’t worry, we’ll worry about that!
