			<h3>Home Installation Help</h3>		
		<h3><strong>How do I go about having a charger installed at my home?</strong></h3><p>If you don’t already have one, an electrician will need to wire a 240 volt circuit, including a 50-amp circuit breaker, from your house panel to a 240 volt NEMA 14-50 outlet or a hard-wired wall-mounted charging station in a location that is convenient for charging your car and the required length of cord. If the station needs to be hard-wired, the electrician will wire it in when they are wiring the 240 volt circuit from your house panel. Be sure to check with your local municipality about getting any required permit for installation.</p><p>The installation can range from only a few hundred to several thousand dollars, depending on the location of the house panel and the location of the charging outlet.</p><p>The station will come with a cord and charger head that plugs into your EV, and since the unit by default is in a low power standby mode when not in use, so it is fine leave it always plugged in and connected to power (“on”).</p><p>We recommend using QMerit, a free service that will help you find certified installers near you that are experienced, licensed electricians and have been vetted and thoroughly background-checked to ensure you receive a great home installation experience.</p><p>Other things to think about when choosing and installing your home charging station:</p><ul><li>Do I want it hard wired or to plug in to a new or existing 240-volt receptacle?</li><li>What length of cord will I need to charge reach my car(s) from the install location? The units can be ordered with different cord lengths to suit your needs.</li><li>Massachusetts also requires that you get a permit. You may need to go to the town’s building division at town hall, fill out a form, etc. Contact us to find out more information about the completing the process where you live.</li></ul><p style="text-align: center;">Find a Certified Charging Equipment Installer with QMerit.</p>
