Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging Solutions

iTrust electricians install a wide range of Electric Vehicle Charging Stations in garages, carports, or other areas. The EV charger installations range from dedicated 240 lines to support Tesla’s onboard mobile charger to installing Tesla and other manufacturers’ mobile charging stations. 


The 240 lines eliminate the need for long extension cords and cut your car’s charging time in half. When using the charging equipment sold with your vehicle, you’ve likely experienced charging times that take eight hours or longer. This rate isn’t indicative of the actual charging capability of your car. The amount of energy transferred from the charging cord to your vehicle depends on the cord, breaker, and receptacle you use. A new, dedicated 240 line and receptacle will increase the speed at which your car charges, getting you out on the road more quickly. 


For Teslas’, the optimal set-up for charging is a 240 line with a Tesla wall connector on a 60 amp breaker. iTrust’s electricians are Tesla-recommended installers and have also installed multiple other manufacturers’ Electric Vehicles. Our experienced electricians have installed over 350 EV chargers. Whether you own a Tesla or any electric vehicle, our professionals are here to safely install your home charging station and help you achieve your vehicle’s full charging capability.
