Level 1 charging uses a standard 120-volt household outlet and adds approximately 3 to 5 miles of range per hour – suitable for very low daily mileage. Level 2 charging uses a dedicated 240-volt circuit and adds approximately 20 to 30 miles of range per hour, giving most EV drivers a full charge overnight at home. Level 3 (DC fast charging) operates at much higher voltages and adds 100 or more miles of range in 30 minutes or less, and is typically used in commercial or public charging applications. ANR Electric installs both Level 2 and Level 3 charging stations. Call (330) 644-4454.
For a home with adequate panel capacity and an attached garage, most Level 2 EV charger installations are completed in a single day. The process includes pulling a permit, running a new dedicated 240-volt circuit from your panel to the garage or charging location, installing the circuit breaker, mounting the charger, making all connections, and scheduling the required inspection. Homes that need a panel upgrade or more complex wiring runs will take additional time. ANR Electric provides a realistic timeline estimate after assessing your home. Call (330) 644-4454.
Not always, but it depends on your existing panel capacity. A Level 2 EV charger typically requires a dedicated 40 to 50-amp circuit. If your home has a 200-amp panel with available capacity, installation can usually proceed without an upgrade. If you have a 100-amp panel in an older Akron-area home that is already fully loaded, a panel upgrade may be needed first. ANR Electric evaluates your panel as part of every EV charger consultation to give you an accurate answer before the project begins. Call (330) 644-4454.
Yes. ANR Electric installs commercial EV charging infrastructure for businesses, parking facilities, hotels, healthcare campuses, retail centers, and other commercial properties throughout Northeast Ohio. Commercial EV charging stations attract electric vehicle drivers, support employee benefit programs, and position businesses ahead of growing EV adoption. ANR Electric handles all aspects of commercial EV charging installation including site assessment, load calculations, conduit and wiring, charger mounting, panel work, and permitting. Call (330) 644-4454.
Yes. EV charger installation requires a permit in Akron and throughout Ohio. A permitted installation is inspected and confirmed to meet the National Electrical Code, which protects you from fire risk, supports your homeowner’s or business insurance coverage, and ensures the installation is documented properly for any future property sale. ANR Electric handles the full permit process as part of every EV charger installation. Any contractor who suggests skipping the permit process is one to avoid. Call ANR Electric at (330) 644-4454.
In Ohio, EV charger installation involving your main electrical panel requires a licensed electrician and a permit. Level 2 charger installation is not a DIY project. It involves running a dedicated 240-volt circuit from your panel to the charging location, installing a correctly rated circuit breaker, and making proper connections at both the panel and the charger. Improper installation is a documented cause of electrical fires, and unpermitted work creates problems for insurance claims and home sales. ANR Electric handles EV charger installation throughout Northeast Ohio. Call (330) 644-4454.
Adding a home EV charger will increase your electricity usage to reflect the energy used to charge your vehicle – but you are replacing gasoline costs with electricity costs, and electricity is typically significantly cheaper per mile than gasoline. Most EV chargers include scheduling features that allow you to charge overnight during off-peak hours when electricity rates are lowest, which further reduces the cost. Many ANR Electric clients find their total fuel costs go down meaningfully after switching to an EV and charging at home. Call (330) 644-4454.
Yes. ANR Electric offers EV charging station design services for commercial clients planning to add EV infrastructure to a facility or parking area. EV charging design includes load analysis to determine how many charging stations the existing electrical system can support, conduit routing, panel assessment, charger selection guidance, and coordination of the electrical scope with general contractors or site engineers. A well-designed EV charging installation scales efficiently and avoids costly retrofits as demand grows. Contact ANR Electric at (330) 644-4454.
