Introduction
Takeaway: We would also suggest not to install an electric car charger unless you intend to pay for it out of pocket or unless you are experienced with electric car wiring. Doing this yourself without the proper knowledge could be dangerous.
The Tesla model S has a 400-watt fast-charge capability.
To begin, you’ll need to know how much power your vehicle can take. The Tesla model S has a 400-watt fast-charge capability, which means it will accept up to 100% of its normal charging rate in about 30 minutes.
The first step is locating a public charging station near where you live or work—or even better yet, one at home! You don’t want to go all the way out of town just for some juice; it takes time and money (and sometimes both), so try going as close as possible. If there isn’t one nearby that offers free electricity too then consider purchasing a solar panel system like this one from SolarCity which allows homeowners with solar panels installed on their properties access free electricity during sunny days when they’re not using their cars all day long driving around town looking for gas stations
This can be sufficient for about an 80% charge (or about 200 miles of driving) in 20 minutes.
- Tesla’s charging system is fast, but it is not the fastest.
- Tesla’s charging system is not the most powerful.
- Tesla’s charging system is not the most convenient.
- And, finally: If you need to charge your car overnight or while away from home and have more than enough cash on hand for an overnight stay at a hotel or Airbnb (the latter being my preference), then this installation will be sufficient for about an 80% charge (or about 200 miles of driving) in 20 minutes—and that’s assuming there aren’t any delays along the way!
To make it available, you’ll need to install an appropriate
To make it available, you’ll need to install an appropriate cable from the main panel in your garage to the electric car charger you install.
The cable must be a standard NEMA 14-50. It must also be mounted at least three feet high (1 meter) and placed so that it’s accessible by Tesla drivers as well as homeowners who might have access to their charging stations.
You’ll also need good grounding.
To make sure that your Tesla charger stays in good working order, you’ll also need to ground it. The term “grounding” refers to the way that electrical equipment is connected with earth (the ground). For example, if a car battery has been disconnected from its terminals for any reason—whether it’s because of damage or because someone forgot about it—it needs to be grounded again before being reconnected.
The reason grounding is so important is that when an electric circuit discharges through an electrical cable (such as when charging), voltage will travel along the cable and into the ground wire where there’s no path back out again. This means anything connected at either end might get shocked by this discharge; since most people don’t want their cars exploding on them while they’re driving down the street, most prefer not putting themselves in danger by being near any wires carrying electricity!
This equipment is costly and installation
If you’re looking to install a Tesla charger, there are a few factors that you’ll want to consider before starting. First of all, these chargers can be expensive. They cost over $1,000 and up (and sometimes more than that) depending on the model and its features. So it’s important that you know where your money will go when it comes time for installation or maintenance—especially if this is something that’s not going to be done often!
The second thing I would recommend considering is how long these chargers will last before needing replacement parts or replacement components altogether. If your home has been equipped with one of these devices but hasn’t been used since 2016 then chances are good
It may not be prudent to install your own electric charger
If you are not an experienced electrician or have a solid knowledge of car security systems and chargers, it may not be prudent to install your own electric charger unless you have the proper equipment and tools.
For example, the Tesla Wall Connector Kit is designed to charge an S or X model vehicle from any 240 V household outlet using standard household extension cord. You can use this kit with any of the seven different chargers currently offered by Tesla Motors:
- The Supercharger+ Wall Connector Kit ($100) provides up to 120 kW charging power for all Model S vehicles equipped with a 75 kilowatt battery pack
Conclusion
The Tesla Model S has a 400-watt fast-charge capability. Some people say they can charge it to 80% in 20 minutes, but only if they use the station’s high-power DC output. There are two ways to do that: the car’s charging port or a 240V level 1 charger (≈$360) that is designed for use with Tesla vehicles (the Model S and the upcoming Model X). If you have access, or purchase one of these items you can install a Level 1 240V charger at home.
