Who Should Consider Having EV Home Charger Installation?
In some cases, you can charge an electric vehicle directly from a standard wall outlet. However, if you decide to go this route, you may overwhelm the outlet and/or your car may take an exorbitant amount of time to charge. If you have an electric vehicle that you are looking to charge, it is recommended that you install a 240 volt level two car charger to help your vehicle charge efficiently and quickly.

My problem with an outlet in the garage was actually due to a problem with an outlet in a bathroom! Vadim fixed it and I will definitely call Plugg Electric for any future electrical work.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Professional and quick service!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. These guys are easy to work with. They even show up when they say they will! My general impression? A cohesive team of highly qualified electricians who deliver quality service and always according to code. Even the Baltimore County code inspector said Plugg Electric does quality work every time and are honest good people. Great endorsement!!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I needed an electrician for a failed circuit and a failed outside outlet. The electrician arrived on time, had the job done quickly and exactly what was needed.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. They were able to fit me in the same day I contacted them, which I really appreciated. I had a problem with my dryer, and I thought it was the plug. It was actually the wiring in the dryer itself, and Vadim was able to diagnose the problem, and was able to look up a manual for my decade old dryer and get it wired correctly. I also had him replace a light switch. Vadim did a great job and the price was fair. I am also getting a quote from them for future work and will be using them again when I need an electrician. Highly recommended.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We woke up this morning and part of our house was missing power. I thought it was a simple tripped breaker so I went down to the basement and flipped the switch. It immediately flipped back and shot out a lightning bolt. My brain told me, “This is not good…” So… I jumped on the internet and looked for a fix… all signs pointed to this problem being beyond my D.I.Y. abilities so my brain then said, “Don’t try to be a hero.” I started searching for an expert that could come out the same day and after about fifteen minutes of browsing and reading 171 glowing 5 Star reviews I ended up calling Plugg Electric. Vadim showed up at my house less than an hour later and immediately got to work! He was polite, professional, and honest and diligently diagnosed the problems resulting from very old wiring and some poorly executed quick fixes over the years. It ended up being pretty bad but Vadim gave me reasonable options and together we formed a plan to get me back up and running today (I work from home) and to address the issues in stages and make my house safe for the future. I am 100% pleased with my decision to use Plugg Electric and feel lucky to have a true professional and genuinely good person like Vadim making my house a better place to live and work. 5 stars…Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
