.Charging an electric vehicle can
stress a building’ s electrical
system more than a typical
household appliance.
.Before you plug in to any
electrical outlet, have a qualified
electrician inspect and verify the
electrical system (electrical
outlet, wiring, junctions, and
protection devices) for
heavy-duty service at a 12 amp
continuous load.
