Mike from Bordentown, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since August of 2024. The charger went into the garage that September: a ChargePoint Level 2 unit on a 30-amp circuit, plugged into a NEMA 6-50 outlet within ten feet of the breaker box. A 30-amp circuit is the smaller of the two arrangements we fit, and it suits a house where the service has less headroom or where an overnight charge is all that is needed – a car left plugged in from evening to morning gains more range than most people drive in a day. A permit was filed with the township and the work inspected.

EV charger questions from Bordentown homeowners
Can one charger serve two electric cars?
Frequently, yes. Cars sit parked for many hours overnight, so if they do not both need a full charge at the same moment one unit can be entirely adequate. Where two are genuinely wanted, group power management lets them share a defined amount of capacity rather than each demanding a full circuit.
What is bidirectional charging?
Bidirectional charging allows energy to flow from the vehicle battery back to a home or grid when supported by the vehicle and equipment. It is more complex than ordinary charging and should be designed as a power system, not just an outlet.
What should a Bordentown homeowner look for in an EV charger installer?
One that treats the charger, the car, the electrical service, the permit and any utility programme as a single system rather than fitting a 60-amp breaker because the charger will take one. That means the household's actual daily driving, what the vehicle's onboard charger accepts, the connector, the service rating, a proper load calculation, the capacity left in the panel, Article 625 and the manufacturer's installation instructions, the correct breaker and conductor sizes, hardwired or plug-in, indoor or outdoor, the municipal permit and final inspection, commissioning and network setup, whatever incentives are open at the time, off-peak charging, how it interacts with solar or back-up power if the house has either, and the second car that may arrive later. The question worth asking is which charging system gives the house the speed it actually needs without upgrading the service unnecessarily.
