Charging station installation
Installing a charging station requires careful planning and expertise. Our certified electricians assess your existing electrical system, determine the optimal setup, and install a station suited to your needs. We handle the installation of residential EV chargers for personal use as well as commercial or institutional EV chargers.
We are familiar with the various types of chargers on the market and can advise you on the most suitable option (Level 2, capacity, compatibility with your vehicle). We ensure a safe installation that complies with provincial electrical codes and standards.
Solutions for multiple sectors
SCE Electric offers charging station services to a wide range of clients:
