EV Charger Installation in Lubbock, TX
Charging your electric vehicle at home is faster, cheaper, and more convenient than relying on public stations — but it needs the right electrical setup. Action Electric installs Level 2 EV chargers and dedicated circuits for homeowners across Lubbock, making sure your panel can safely handle the added load.
Level 1 vs. Level 2 Charging
Level 1 charging uses a standard household outlet and adds just a few miles of range per hour — fine in a pinch, but slow for daily driving. Level 2 charging runs on a 240-volt circuit, similar to an electric dryer, and can fully charge most EVs overnight.
For most EV owners, a Level 2 charger on a dedicated circuit is the best home solution. We install the charger, run the circuit, and verify your panel has the capacity to support it.
Does Your Panel Have Enough Capacity?
EV chargers draw significant power, so it's important to confirm your electrical panel can handle the additional load. In some cases, a panel upgrade is recommended before or alongside charger installation.
Action Electric evaluates your existing service during the estimate and lets you know exactly what's needed for safe, reliable home charging.
