Marc from Marlboro, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since November of 2024. The charger went in that December: a hardwired ChargePoint Level 2 unit rated 11.5 kW, mounted outdoors on a dedicated 60-amp circuit within ten feet of the breaker box. The service measurement came back with 153 amps of spare capacity, which is generous enough that the 60-amp circuit could be added without touching the panel – the check that decides whether an EV charger is a morning’s work or the start of a service upgrade. A utility rebate application was filed and closed as part of the job, which is the sort of paperwork that gets left undone once the installer has driven away.

EV charger questions from Marlboro homeowners
Do I need a permit for a home EV charger in Marlboro, NJ?
A new hardwired charger or new branch circuit generally requires electrical permitting and inspection under New Jersey's Uniform Construction Code. A cord-and-plug charger using an existing compatible receptacle may be treated differently, so the local electrical subcode official should be consulted for the specific installation.
Should the highest-amperage charger always be installed?
No. The right charging rate balances daily driving, what the vehicle can accept, the capacity available in the electrical system and what the installation involves. Upgrading a service purely to gain a few more miles of range per hour is rarely the sensible trade.
What connector should I install: NACS or J1772?
NACS is now widely adopted by North American automakers, while many existing vehicles use J1772 for AC charging. Adapters are common. Choose based on your current vehicle, likely future vehicles, charger quality, and long-term support rather than connector branding alone.
