Yes. Most EV chargers require a dedicated circuit to safely handle their continuous electrical load.
EV chargers, especially Level 2 systems, draw significant power over extended periods. For safety and code compliance, they are typically installed on a dedicated circuit that serves no other appliances.
This prevents overloads, ensures stable charging, and meets electrical code requirements for continuous loads. Circuits must also be sized appropriately—usually at 125% of the charger’s continuous load—to prevent overheating and ensure safe operation.
