Choosing the right charger depends on your vehicle and daily driving habits. Here is what you need to know about each charging level:
Level 1 Charging Level 1 chargers use a standard 120-volt household outlet and come included with most electric vehicles. They add approximately 3 to 5 miles of range per hour, making them suitable for plug-in hybrids or drivers with short daily commutes under 30 miles. No professional installation is required, though charging a fully depleted EV battery can take 40 hours or more.
Level 2 Charging (Recommended for Home Installation) Level 2 chargers require a 240-volt dedicated circuit and professional installation by a licensed electrician. These chargers deliver 25 to 70 miles of range per hour, fully recharging most EVs overnight in 4 to 10 hours. Level 2 charging is the gold standard for home EV charger installation and works with all electric vehicles, including Tesla (using an adapter or Tesla Wall Connector), Chevrolet, Ford, Rivian, and others.
Level 3 / DC Fast Charging DC fast chargers provide rapid charging in under an hour but require commercial-grade electrical infrastructure. These chargers are not suitable for residential installation due to their extreme power requirements.
Every home has unique electrical requirements. Our installation process ensures your charging station is safe, code-compliant, and optimized for your vehicle:
We start with a comprehensive electrical assessment to determine if your home can support a Level 2 charger. Many homes require 150 to 200 amp electrical service for reliable EV charging. Older homes with 100 amp panels often need an upgrade, particularly for power-hungry vehicles like the Tesla Model Y, Ford F-150 Lightning, or Rivian R1T.
Next, we help you select the right charger based on your vehicle’s specifications, your typical driving patterns, and your budget. We install and service popular brands including Tesla Wall Connector, ChargePoint Home Flex, Emporia, Grizzl-E, JuiceBox, and universal J1772 chargers.
Our licensed electricians then complete the installation, including running dedicated wiring, installing the appropriate breaker, mounting the charging unit, and ensuring everything meets Michigan electrical codes and NEC requirements. We pull all necessary permits and provide certification documentation for your records.
The cost of installing a home EV charger in Grand Blanc varies based on several factors:
The distance from your electrical panel to the charger location affects material and labor costs. Longer wire runs require thicker gauge wiring to prevent voltage drop. Your existing electrical panel capacity matters as well. Homes with 200 amp service typically accommodate a Level 2 charger without upgrades, while 100 amp panels often require a service upgrade. The charger type and amperage rating (typically 32 to 48 amps for residential) also influence overall project cost.

Michigan homeowners can offset a significant portion of their EV charger installation cost through the Consumers Energy PowerMIDrive program. Qualifying customers receive a $500 rebate, and income-qualified households may be eligible for up to $1,000 back.
To qualify, you must be a Consumers Energy residential electric customer and own, lease, or have an EV on order. Your Level 2 charger must have a maximum output of 9.6 kW and be either Energy Star rated and UL-certified or provided by an automotive manufacturer. Enrollment in the Nighttime Savers Rate is required, which also lowers your charging costs during off-peak hours.
JCM Electrical provides a detailed invoice upon completion that you submit directly to Consumers Energy to receive your rebate check in the mail.
