Tips on EV Charger Installs, how much would you charge for this job? #electrician #ev

What happens here

With all electrical connections made and the cable hatch door installed, you can now power up the circuit. Go to your electrical panel and turn on the 40-amp circuit breaker for the EV charger. Observe the EV charger for any indicator lights confirming it has power. Test the cable hatch by opening and closing it. Route the charging cable through the hatch to charge your vehicle outside. This method keeps the cable safe, preventing it from being damaged by the garage door, and allows for convenient outdoor charging. When not in use, ensure the cable is neatly coiled and the hatch is closed to protect it from the elements.

Goal: Verify functionality and demonstrate safe operation of the charging system

Tools and materials

What they say

Hide

your EV, we install a cable hatch door that the cord goes out, opens up like this, so the customer can just charge his car outside without the cord going under the door, and over time ruin the cord. But this makes the cord safe.
