Why a Standard Outlet Won’t Cut It for Your EV
Your electric vehicle came with a Level 1 charging cable that plugs into a regular 120-volt outlet. It’s painfully slow. We’re talking 3-5 miles of range per hour. If you drive 40 miles a day, you need 8-12 hours just to break even. Miss a night of charging and you’re behind for days.
Most EV owners think, “I’ll just use a regular outlet. It’s free and it works.”
The reality: A standard outlet wasn’t designed for the sustained electrical load of EV charging. Running it for hours every night can overheat connections, trip breakers, and create fire hazards. Plus, you’re wasting time. A Level 2 charger delivers 240 volts and adds 25-40 miles of range per hour. Your car charges while you sleep, and you never think about it again.
Happy Electric installs Level 2 EV chargers that are safe, code-compliant, and powerful enough to keep your electric vehicle ready when you are.

Our EV Charger Installation Process
Happy Electric handles everything from permit applications to final inspection. You get a charging station that works perfectly and meets all safety requirements. Here’s how we do it.
Step 1: Home Electrical Assessment
We evaluate your electrical panel’s capacity, determine if you need an upgrade, and identify the best location for your charger. Distance from the panel, parking spot access, and weatherproofing all factor into the plan.
Step 2: Charger Selection & Permit Application
We recommend the right charger for your vehicle and usage. Then we handle all permit applications and ensure the installation meets local codes and utility requirements.
Step 3: Panel Upgrade (If Needed)
If your panel can’t support the additional load, we upgrade it before installing the charger. This ensures your entire electrical system can handle the demand safely.
Step 4: Professional Charger Installation
Our certified EV charger installers run the dedicated circuit, mount your charging station, and connect everything according to manufacturer specs and electrical code.
Step 5: Testing & Final Inspection
We test the charger with your vehicle, verify all safety features work correctly, and schedule the final inspection if required. You get full documentation and instructions for using your new charger.
Fast, safe, done right. That’s the Happy Electric standard for EV charger installation.

Your Questions, Answered HonestlyYou’ve got questions about installing an EV charger at home. We’ve got answers from years of EV charging installations. Here’s what Spring Lake Park homeowners ask us most. How much does EV charger installation cost? Basic Level 2 charger installations run $800 to $1,500 if your panel has capacity and the charger location is close to your electrical panel. If you need a panel upgrade, add $2,000 to $4,000 to the total. Long wire runs, trenching for outdoor installations, or permit fees can increase costs. Happy Electric provides an exact quote after assessing your home’s electrical system and installation requirements. Factor in utility rebates and federal tax credits when calculating your real cost. Do I need to upgrade my electrical panel for an EV charger? Maybe. Level 2 EV chargers typically require a 40-60 amp dedicated circuit. If your panel is already at capacity or outdated, you’ll need an upgrade before adding that load. Happy Electric assesses your panel during the consultation and tells you upfront if an upgrade is necessary. Most homes built before 2000 need upgrades, but it varies based on your existing electrical setup. What’s the difference between Level 1 and Level 2 charging? Level 1 uses your standard 120-volt outlet and adds 3-5 miles of range per hour. Level 2 uses a 240-volt circuit (like your dryer) and adds 25-40 miles per hour depending on your vehicle and charger amperage. If you drive an average of 30-40 miles daily, Level 1 barely keeps up. Level 2 fully charges your EV in 4-8 hours, so you wake up with a full battery every morning. Level 2 is the standard for home charging. Can I install an EV charger myself to save money? Don’t. EV charger installation requires running a dedicated high-amperage circuit from your panel, which is dangerous if done incorrectly. Mistakes can cause fires, electrocution, or damage to your expensive EV. Plus, DIY installations void warranties and won’t pass inspection if you ever sell your home. Happy Electric’s licensed electricians install your charger safely and ensure it meets all code requirements. Which EV charger brand should I choose? Popular options include Tesla Wall Connector (for Tesla owners), ChargePoint Home Flex, JuiceBox, and Grizzl-E. Your choice depends on your vehicle, desired charging speed, smart features, and budget. Happy Electric recommends chargers based on your specific needs and can source and install whatever brand you prefer. We’ll explain the differences so you make an informed decision. How long does EV charger installation take? Simple installations take 4-6 hours if your panel has capacity and the charger location is near the panel. If you need a panel upgrade or long wire runs, plan on 1-2 days. Outdoor installations requiring trenching can take longer. Happy Electric schedules installations to minimize disruption and gives you an accurate timeline during the consultation. Ready to charge at home?
