Kyle from Jackson, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since September of 2025. The charger went in that November: a hardwired ChargePoint Level 2 unit rated 11.5 kW, mounted outdoors on a dedicated 60-amp circuit with surge protection and a service-disconnect switch. The load calculation put the minimum service at 47 amps against the 100-amp supply the house already had, so the circuit went in without the panel being touched. That calculation is the step worth insisting on: it is what separates a charger that can simply be added from one that needs the service upgraded first, and it is far better established before anything is ordered than on installation day. A permit was filed with the township and a utility rebate application submitted.

EV charger questions from Jackson homeowners
Does Jackson inspect an EV charger installation?
Where the work requires an electrical permit, the municipal electrical inspector reviews it before the permit is closed. That inspection is the record that the circuit, the breaker, the conductors and the equipment connection were done to code, and it is worth having whether or not a rebate depends on it.
What is a Tesla Universal Wall Connector?
A version designed to charge both NACS and J1772 vehicles. It keeps Tesla's NACS connector and adds an integrated J1772 adapter, with a maximum output of about 48 amps. It is the more flexible Tesla option for a household running more than one brand of car.
What are NACS and J1772?
J1772 is the long-established North American AC charging connector used by many non-Tesla vehicles. NACS is the North American Charging System connector originally developed by Tesla and now widely adopted across the industry. Adapters allow cross-compatibility in many situations, and some chargers are available with either connector.
