Installation Process

Is it better to hardwire or plug in an EV charger?

Hardwired units connect permanently to a dedicated circuit. Plug-in setups usually use a NEMA 14-50 or similar receptacle.

Choose based on the charger model, how permanent the location is, and local code requirements.

Panel capacity still matters for either option.
