Types of EV Chargers We Install

EV Charger Installation Services in Cascade Locks, Oregon

We install Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 EV charging systems for residential and commercial customers in Cascade Locks, helping you find the best fit for your property, driving needs, and available power.

Level 1 EV Charger Installation

Level 1 chargers plug into a standard 120-volt outlet and are a simple solution for drivers with shorter daily commutes. They provide slower charging, typically adding 5-12 miles of range per hour, but are effective for overnight charging or occasional use.

Our electricians will ensure your outlet and circuit are properly set up to handle EV charging safely. If upgrades are needed to support your system, we can recommend and complete those improvements.

Level 2 EV Charger Installation

Level 2 chargers are the most popular choice for homeowners due to their faster charging speeds and everyday convenience. Operating on a dedicated 240-volt circuit, they can deliver approximately 20-60 miles of range per hour, making them ideal for overnight charging.

Level 2 chargers are a great option for:

• Daily drivers

• Households with multiple EVs

• Anyone wanting faster at-home charging

We can install a hardwired charger or a 240-volt outlet, depending on your preference. Whether you already have equipment or need help choosing a model, our team ensures a professional, code-compliant installation. Many Level 2 systems also include smart features like mobile app control and energy tracking.

Level 3 EV Charger Installation

Level 3 chargers, or DC fast chargers, are designed for commercial and industrial environments where rapid charging is required. These systems typically run on 480-volt power and can charge most EVs in as little as 15-60 minutes.

While not commonly installed in residential settings, we provide Level 3 charger installation for businesses and commercial lots and industrial facilities in and around Cascade Locks. Our team handles everything from electrical upgrades to coordination with utility providers, ensuring your system is installed safely and performs reliably.
