Are you currently driving an electric vehicle or planning to switch to one in the near future? Then, you will want to find the best charging solution for your home. With the right charging station, you can charge your vehicle effectively, reliably, and efficiently.

What is the Best Charging Solution for Home Use?
To determine the best charging solution for your home, we need to consider the following factors:

Connection:
We start with the electrical connection of your home, as not every connection is suitable for every charging station. This depends on the power of your charging station. There are two types of connections: 1-phase or 3-phase connection. A 1-phase connection is usually sufficient for most household appliances, but often not enough for a stronger charging station. In this case, you may consider expanding your meter box, which you should discuss with your network operator, as they have the right to do so.

If you have a 3-phase connection, you have more options when choosing a home charging station.

Vehicle:
The next point to consider is what is best for your vehicle. Charging power varies per vehicle. It is therefore wise to match your vehicle and charging station well. This way you can charge your vehicle optimally.

Location of the Charging Station:
The location of the charging station is also very important. Where do you usually park your cars? If you usually park your car in front of your garage, a wallbox is the best option. If you do not have a garage, you can choose a charging pole, which can be placed anywhere in the ground.

Number of cars you want to charge:
Finally, it is important to know how many cars you want to charge at home. If you want to charge two electric cars, it is advisable to choose a charging pole with a double contact box.
