Kansas City EV Charger Installation
Charge at Home & Save; Call CM Mose & Sons Today
An electric vehicle can have a number of benefits, including helping you avoid high prices at the gas pump. However, charging can be difficult without a proper EV charging system. A standard wall plug can take hours or even days to fully-charge an electric vehicle, and that means you might never be able to drive to your car’s fullest range capacity. At CM Mose & Sons, we have the solution: a specialized EV charging system in Kansas City that allows you to charge your vehicle faster, safer, and more efficiently.
Benefits of an EV Charging Station
EV chargers allow you to maximize your charging time by filling your car’s battery with more power in a much faster and safer manner. The secret is two-fold: first, EV chargers handle the inverting process ahead of time, meaning your car itself doesn’t need to invert the power coming in. Because home chargers have bigger inverters, they can supply more power directly to your car’s batteries at a far faster rate. Second, EV chargers use a 240-volt supply line rather than a standard 120-volt line, meaning they can handle more power without increasing amperage (and thus increasing risk).
EV Charging Stations Can Do All of the Following:
- Extend your car’s battery life
- Charge your car at a much faster rate
- Improve charging efficiency
- Increase charging safety

What’s Needed for an EV Charger?
Installing an EV charger does require some careful planning. Because EV chargers require a 240-volt connection, your home must have access to a 240-volt electrical connection (most modern homes do). This typically means running a new, specialized 240-volt circuit from your electrical panel to where you plan on installing your charger in order to power it, and nothing else should be on this 240-volt connection. Our Kansas City EV charger installation pros highly recommend having a professional electrician install this new circuit in order to make sure it is added safely and properly to your existing grid.
EV chargers also require a proper place for mounting. Depending on the model of charger you purchase, your charger may require a minimum amount of clearance around it. If you plan on installing your outlet in an outdoor location, you must install a weatherproof charger and ensure that all electrical connections adhere to outdoor use codes and guidelines.
