Michael from Marlton, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since June of 2025. The charger went into the garage in July: a Tesla wall connector with a NACS plug rated 11.5 kW, hardwired on a dedicated 60-amp circuit within ten feet of the breaker box. The unit itself was supplied by the household rather than by us, which is a perfectly sensible way to do it – the equipment is often bought with the car, and what actually needs a contractor is the circuit, the permit and the inspection rather than the box on the wall. The load calculation put the minimum service at 166 amps against the 200-amp supply the house already had, so the circuit went in without the panel being touched, and a utility rebate application was filed as part of the job.

EV charger questions from Marlton homeowners
Can I install an EV charger myself in Marlton, NJ?
Homeowners may have limited rights to perform electrical work on property they own, but permitting, code compliance, inspection, and safety requirements still apply. Because EV charging is a continuous high-load application, professional installation by a qualified electrical contractor is strongly recommended.
Can ice damage a charging cable?
Repeated freezing, plowing, or driving over the cable can damage it. Store cables off the ground when possible and keep connectors protected from standing water and compacted snow.
Can a Tesla use a J1772 home charger?
Most Tesla vehicles can use J1772 Level 2 equipment with the appropriate adapter. Charging speed still depends on the vehicle and charger ratings.
