LEVEL UP YOUR EV CHARGING EXPERIENCE

Dive into EV Charging

Electric vehicles (EVs) are the future of sustainable transportation, and efficient charging is the key to a seamless EV ownership experience. At Sparktech Electrical, we understand the importance of a reliable charging infrastructure. There are three levels of EV chargers, each offering distinct charging speeds and capabilities:

Level 1 Chargers:
- Standard wall receptacle charging, providing approximately 4-8km of charge per hour.
- Ideal for infrequent drivers or very small commuters.

Level 2 Chargers:
- Require 240v power and draw about 40A, delivering approximately 50km of charge per hour.
- Suitable for faster charging and commonly used in residential and commercial settings.

Level 3 Chargers:
- High-power DC charging, capable of charging an EV up to ¾ full within an hour.
- Primarily found in public charging stations due to the need for robust electrical infrastructure.

While Level 3 chargers offer unparalleled speed, Level 2 chargers strike a balance between charging time and cost-effectiveness. At Sparktech Electrical, we are licensed electricians capable of installing both Level 2 and Level 3 charging systems, providing tailored solutions to meet your charging needs.

FAQ

Will my electricity bill spike up from an EV Charger?

There will be a modest increase in your power consumption. However, modern chargers and EV Management Systems allow us to schedule charging during off-peak hours, reducing your overall electricity costs.

Are there any incentives or rebates?

Yes, you can explore rebates, eligible vehicles, and public charging station locations through Transport Canada. We assist you with the necessary paperwork to obtain available rebates.

I park outside, is it possible to install my charger on the outside?

Absolutely. Modern chargers are designed for outdoor installation and can withstand various weather conditions.

I have 2 EV’s, is it possible to charge them both from a single unit?

Certainly. There are chargers with Duo charging capabilities and built-in load sharing to efficiently charge both of your EVs.

I’ve maxed out my panel with my recent hot tub installation, do I need to upgrade my panel?

During our assessment, we’ll determine if an upgrade is needed and explore options, including an installation of an EV Management System (EVMS).

I am moving to a new home. Can I take my charger with me?

While it’s possible, leaving the charger in place can add value to your property.

Client Testimonials

I highly recommend Sparktech Electrical for all of your residential electrical needs. When we purchased our house, the receptacles outside were not working. Lars and Cam came and got them working again and wired the new fan in our kitchen. They were fast, professional, and got the job done for what they quoted. I had a great experience and will not hesitate to call them again because they are flawless in their delivery!
