Rodney from New Brunswick, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since April of 2024. The charger went in that May: a ChargePoint Level 2 unit rated 11.5 kW, mounted outdoors beside the meter on a dedicated 60-amp circuit. This one is a NACS connector rather than the older J1772 – the standard Tesla used and the rest of the industry has now adopted, which means a charger specified this way suits the cars being sold today rather than the ones sold five years ago. The service was measured before anything was ordered and had the capacity to carry the circuit.
Why Rodney chose Green Sun Energy Services
Professional home EV charging made simple, from electrical design through final inspection.

EV charger questions from New Brunswick homeowners
Can I install an EV charger myself in New Brunswick, 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 a non-Tesla vehicle use a Tesla-style NACS home charger?
Many newer vehicles support NACS directly, while others can use approved adapters depending on the vehicle and charger. Compatibility should be confirmed with both manufacturers.
Does a bigger charger always charge the car faster?
No. Charging speed is limited by whichever part of the chain has the least capacity: the charging equipment, the branch circuit, the electrical service or the vehicle's onboard charger. Installing a 48-amp charger does not make a car with a 32-amp onboard charger accept 48 amps.
