WALLBOX INSTALLATION GUIDE
THE FASTEST CHOICE FOR HOME CHARGING
A home charging station offers a dedicated charger for your electric or plug-in hybrid car . It is the fastest home charging option, being up to five times faster than charging from a standard household outlet. This column is also called a home charger for electric vehicles or a wallbox charger.
Home charging can be cheaper than public charging. Therefore, installing a fast home charger for electric vehicles can help reduce running costs.
Since there are many options available , it is important to choose the one compatible with your vehicle. We also recommend hiring a professional installer for home installation of an electric vehicle charger.
