A homebuyer expecting to install an electric vehicle charger found their new townhouse already wired for a 100-amp electrical service, raising questions about compatibility. Local electricians confirm that even with this setup, an EV charger could still be installed, though adjustments may be needed to ensure safe and efficient operation. The discovery highlights how modern housing developments are increasingly accounting for electric vehicle adoption, though challenges remain in retrofitting older systems. Potential buyers considering EVs should verify whether their home’s electrical infrastructure meets charging demands before purchase.
