How to Choose the Right Charger for Your Car in Ontario
Electric vehicles (EVs) are transforming how we drive, but owning one means making an important decision: choosing the right charger for your car. With so many models, power levels, and installation requirements available, it can feel overwhelming. That’s where Kiyan Electric Inc., your trusted licensed electrical contractor in Richmond Hill, comes in.
Our team is an expert at helping drivers in Ontario choose and set up the safest and most effective chargers for their cars, whether they are at home, in a condo, or at a business.
Why the “Right Charger” Matters
A lot of electric vehicle (EV) owners think that any charger will work, yet picking the wrong one might cause:
· Slower charging times
· Higher energy costs
· Increased strain on your electrical panel
· Safety risks without proper installation
When you use a licensed contractor like Kiyan Electric Inc., you can be sure that your charger will operate with your car and that it will be installed in accordance with Ontario electrical law, ESA permits, and safety requirements.
Types of EV Chargers and What’s Right for You
1. Level 1 Chargers
· Plug directly into a standard 120V outlet
· Very slow (8–20 hours for a full charge)
· Best for occasional or low-mileage drivers
2. Level 2 Chargers
· Require a 240V connection and professional installation
· 4–8 hours for a full charge
· Ideal for daily drivers and families with multiple EVs
3. Level 3 / DC Fast Chargers
· Primarily for commercial or public use
· Can charge in under an hour
· Requires significant power capacity upgrades
Most Ontario homeowners find that a Level 2 charger (such as ChargerPoint, Tesla, Grizzle) is the “right charger” for everyday use.
