Fast, Reliable Home Charging — Installed Right
Born & Raised Electric specializes in residential EV charger installations for homeowners who want fast, reliable charging at home. With over 500+ EV charger installations completed, we understand the technical requirements behind safe, code-compliant charging, including panel capacity and load calculations, permits, and manufacturer specifications.
Whether you've just purchased an electric vehicle or want to upgrade an existing EV charger, our team ensures your home's electrical system can support it safely.
What's Included in Every Installation
Electrical Panel Assessment
We evaluate your current panel capacity and determine whether your system can handle the continuous load an EV charger demands.
Custom Solution
Not every home is the same. We design the installation around your specific electrical system, vehicle, and charging needs.
Permits & Inspections
We handle all required permits and coordinate inspections so your installation is fully compliant with local codes.
Professional, Code-Compliant Install
EV chargers place continuous demand on your electrical system, so we treat every installation like it's our own home. We never cut corners, and safety is our main concern.
Why Level 2 Charging Matters
A Level 2 EV charger provides significantly faster charging than a standard outlet, allowing most electric vehicles to charge fully overnight. However, not every home is immediately ready for Level 2 charging.
Many homes, especially older properties in Hudson County and North Jersey, require:
- Electrical panel upgrades
- Electric service upgrades to 200 amps
- Load management devices to balance power safely
Pricing, timelines, and requirements vary based on panel capacity, wiring, permits, and local utility coordination. Our knowledgeable team will walk you through all your options so you can make an informed decision that is best for your needs.
Installation Timeline
We begin with a home assessment to evaluate your electrical system and discuss your charging needs. After helping you select the right charger for your vehicle and budget, we'll schedule installation at your convenience. Most installations are completed in 3–5 hours, and we'll walk you through operation and maintenance before we leave.
Our certified electricians handle every aspect of your Level 2 charger installation. We'll assess your electrical panel capacity, determine the optimal charger location, install any necessary wiring and circuit upgrades, mount your charging station securely, and ensure everything meets local electrical codes and manufacturer specifications.
