There are various electric vehicle charging outlets available in the Triangle for home use.

There are various electric vehicle charging outlets available in the Triangle for home use. For residential charging, homeowners are advised to consider either a type 1 or type 2 charger. These two types are among the three common EV charger options:

Type 1 Charger

This charger is designed to plug into a standard 120V outlet. While it's feasible to charge an EV using a standard electrical outlet, it will require over 24 hours for a full charge. For faster and more efficient charging, it's advisable to install a dedicated outlet specifically for your charger.

Type 2 Charger

This charger operates at the same voltage as a dryer or water heater. Installing a dedicated EV charger of this kind requires professional expertise. It's the preferred choice for at-home EV stations due to its popularity. With this charger, you can achieve a full vehicle charge in less time than a type 1—typically in under 10 hours.

DC Fast Charging

Another charger type operates on direct current (DC). However, this particular charger style isn't designed for residential use. These DC EV chargers are commonly located at gas stations, along highways, near airports, and other public areas. While some debate the possibility of installing this charging station at home, it's considered excessive. After all, you wouldn't install a gasoline station in your yard to fuel your car, would you?
