EV Charger Installations Michiana Area
Get Your Own Electric Car Charger Installed by McCormick Electrical Services!
Just a few decades ago, the idea of having widespread electric vehicles (EVs) across the country might have seemed preposterous, particularly since it seemed impossible to have charging stations established in multiple locations. Without chargers, electric vehicles would have a very limited driving range, and seemed to pose more trouble than they were worth. However, in the midst of growing carbon emissions and the disappearance of natural resources, it has become clearer than ever that EVs are the automobile of the present, not just the future. Having an EV charger marks a true source of value in a society that is growing more conscious of protecting the environment, as well as reducing our national dependence on oil from abroad.

Flexible Options for Electric Vehicle Chargers
If you are looking to have an EV charger installed in the South Bend Area, there are many unique factors to consider. Our electricians are able to help you select the amperage that you believe would be the most affordable option while simultaneously providing the most value.
Some of the elements to consider when determining which charger, you want include:
- The speed of your charging station – A vehicle could either receive a full charge within 20 hours with the standard Level 1 charger or a full charge within 3 hours with a faster Level 2 charger.
- The amperage level of your station – If you are looking to serve many automobiles or large vehicles, you may want to consider higher amperage.
- Your charger’s cord length – If you have a longer length of cord, you could potentially save a lot for the costs of installing the charging unit, while also increasing the convenience of charging.
Levels of EV Chargers
For homeowners, level 1 and level 2 chargers are the only ones suitable for home use.
- Level 1 has a voltage of 120V with a charging rate of up to 30+ hours. It has a standard outlet used for everyday devices such as refrigerators, and TVs, and due to this it is also the slowest charger available, so many residents prefer level 2.
- Level 2 chargers have a voltage of up to 240V and can found at both residential and public spaces. It is much faster than the Level 1 alternative and provides 12-30 miles of range per hour. Our experts must install this in your basement or garage and your vehicle will charge in about three hours. This is the most common type of charger residents use.
How Long Does EV Charger Installation Take?
The time it takes to install a residential EV charger in South Bend depends on various factors. On average, the installation process typically takes a few hours to a day.
The electrician will need to assess your home's electrical system, install the charging unit, and set up the necessary wiring. Factors like the distance from your electrical panel, any required electrical upgrades, and the specific charger model can influence the installation time. It's advisable to consult with the installation service for a more accurate estimate based on your unique situation.
Why Consider an Electric Vehicle?

Electric vehicles have been proven to lower the costs of transportation with their efficient energy use, in addition to making the air cleaner. This in turn decreases Americans’ reliance on foreign fuels, thus boosting our national economy.
