Important Information about
Portable Electric Vehicle Charging
.Charging an electric vehicle can
stress a building’ s electrical
system more than a typical
household appliance.
. Before plugging into any
electrical outlet, have a qualified
electrician inspect and verify the
electrical system (electrical
outlet, wiring, junctions, and
protection devices) for
heavy-duty service at a 12 amp
continuous load.
. Electrical outlets may wear out
with normal usage or may be
damaged over time, making
them unsuitable for electric
vehicle charging. .
Check the electrical outlet/plug
while charging and discontinue
use if the electrical outlet/plug is
hot, then have the electrical
outlet serviced by a qualified
electrician.
. When outdoors, plug into an
electrical outlet that is
weatherproof while in use.
