Level 1 vs. Level 2 EV Charger Installation
When you purchase an electric vehicle in Savannah, it typically comes with a basic Level 1 charger that plugs into a standard 120-volt outlet. While this works, it is usually the slowest way to charge and can take 24 hours or more to fully charge many EVs — especially if you commute across town, to Pooler, or down to Richmond Hill on a regular basis.
Level 1 Charging
- Uses a standard 120V household outlet
- Slow charging — often adds only 3–5 miles of range per hour
- Best for very light, occasional driving
- Can strain older wiring if not properly evaluated
Level 2 Charging (Our Recommendation)
- Uses a 240V dedicated circuit, similar to an electric range or dryer
- Much faster charging — often 4–10x faster than Level 1
- Ideal for daily commuting in the Savannah area
- Can be installed in garages, carports, or exterior parking pads
For most homeowners in Savannah, a professionally installed Level 2 charger offers the best balance of speed, convenience, and long-term value. Wright One Odd Jobs will evaluate your existing electrical panel, recommend the right charger capacity for your vehicle, and complete the installation so you can confidently charge overnight and hit the road in the morning.
What’s Included in Our EV Charger Installation
Every home is different, whether you live in a historic Savannah property or a newer home in a Pooler or Richmond Hill subdivision. Our licensed electricians follow a detailed process to make sure your EV charger is safe, efficient, and tailored to your specific setup.
Electrical Panel Assessment
We begin with a full inspection of your main electrical panel to confirm it can safely handle the additional load from a Level 2 charger. If panel upgrades or load management are recommended, we’ll review your options and pricing before any work begins.
Dedicated Circuit & Wiring
Our electricians install a dedicated 240V circuit to serve your EV charger, sized according to the manufacturer’s specifications and local code. We use high-quality wire and materials rated for your installation location, whether it’s inside your garage or mounted on an exterior wall.
Professional Mounting & Placement
We help you choose a convenient, practical spot for your charger so the cord easily reaches your preferred parking space. Our team securely mounts the charging unit to the wall or pedestal, taking into account Savannah’s hot, humid climate and potential storm exposure.
Testing, Setup & Homeowner Walkthrough
Before we leave, we thoroughly test your new EV charger, verify proper grounding and breaker sizing, and confirm that your vehicle charges as expected. We also walk you through basic operation, safety tips, and everyday use so you feel completely comfortable charging at home.

EV Charger Installation FAQs
Homeowners across Savannah often have similar questions when they’re considering an EV charger. Here are clear answers from our local electrical team.
Do I really need a licensed electrician to install a Level 2 charger?
Yes. Level 2 chargers draw significant power and must be connected to a dedicated 240V circuit that is properly sized, grounded, and protected. A licensed electrician ensures your installation is safe, up to code, and eligible for any potential manufacturer warranties or insurance requirements.
How long does a typical EV charger installation take?
Most straightforward installations in Savannah homes can be completed in about 3–5 hours once we’re on site. More complex projects that require panel upgrades, longer wire runs, or permitting may take longer, but we’ll outline the expected timeline during your estimate.
Can you install any brand of EV charger?
We install most major Level 2 charger brands, including units recommended by vehicle manufacturers as well as popular third-party chargers. If you already have a charger, we can install it. If you’re still deciding, we’re happy to discuss options that fit your budget and driving habits in the Savannah area.
Will a Level 2 charger increase my electric bill?
Charging an EV does add to your electric usage, but it is often still less expensive than paying for gasoline, especially if you primarily charge overnight at home. During your estimate, we can give you a general idea of what to expect based on your vehicle, charger size, and typical driving patterns around Savannah.
