Tesla Home Charger Installation

Charging your Tesla at home is the best and most convenient way to charge. You simply need to plug it in overnight while you’re asleep. A Tesla home charger saves you the pump trip stress that comes with gas-powered vehicles, plus you save money and time due to low utility pricing overnight. It is much easier to power an electric vehicle than it is to power a gas vehicle. Doesn't matter if the install is a hardwire charger or a Nema outlet we can help.

How to Install the Tesla Home Charger

There are three steps involved in installing the Tesla home charger. They are:

  1. Start by Purchasing the Tesla Wall Connector
    The first step is to get a Tesla Wall Connector. You can purchase this from the Tesla online store, as this will not come along with the car purchase you make. It is advisable to check with a Tesla electrician to make sure that your home can support the charger.

  2. Schedule an Electrician Visit

    The Tesla home charger installation takes only a few hours, even though it may take a while to find an electrician, more so a Tesla electrician. You can schedule a visit for us at CLD electric. When we visit the site, we carry out an assessment and offer a quote for the installation.

  3. Schedule Installation 

    If you’re fine with the quote and accept it, then move ahead to schedule a day for the installation. The installation will take only a few hours, but we recommend you carry out the Tesla home charger installation right before the delivery of your EV because there may be a variance in delivery dates. While scheduling the installation, remember to forward the confirmation email for the order shipped to the electrician and then fix an installation date.
