Distances out here are long, so most EV and plug-in hybrid owners around Goodsoil want to leave home every morning with a full charge. A regular 120-volt outlet will trickle-charge a car overnight, but a Level 2 charger on a 240-volt circuit is what makes an EV practical for daily driving, especially when a trip to Meadow Lake, about an hour from Goodsoil, is part of the routine.
The job starts in the panel. A Level 2 charger is a large load that runs for hours at a time, so we check the service and do a load calculation before anything else. Then we run a dedicated circuit to the garage, shop or driveway, and either hardwire the charger or install the 240-volt outlet it plugs into. If the panel is full, an upgrade or a load-management device may be the answer.
Cold is part of the plan. Batteries charge more slowly and lose range in a prairie winter, and January in this region averages about −16.8 °C, so we put the charger where the cord is easy to reach in snow and the unit is protected from the weather. Permits go through TSASK, and quotes are free.
