Electric Vehicle FAQs
What’s the difference between the charging levels?
EV chargers are designated as Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3. Level 1 charging is the slowest, and is accomplished by plugging your EV into a grounded three-prong outlet. While convenient, it can take several days to get a full charge. Most home chargers and many public charging stations are Level 2, which is significantly faster. Your vehicle will be fully charged overnight. Level 3 charging is the fastest. It uses a direct current which isn’t compatible with home electric panels, so you’ll find these in public. They can take a battery from 20 percent to 80 percent charged in about an hour.
How much do home charging stations cost?
Most home charging stations are priced from $500–$800. Installation prices depend on the charger you choose and your electrician’s pricing. Installation generally costs from $750–$1,750.
How long will home charger installation take?
Plan on your home charger installation taking about a half-day.
Do I need a permit to install a home EV charger?
In Riverside, you’re required to get a permit from the Building and Safety Division of the Community and Economic Development Department. If you live outside the Riverside city limits, contact your town’s administrative office for information.
