EV Charging Station Installation
More people are switching to electric vehicles to reduce their carbon footprint by cutting out the consumption of gasoline, and to save money by not paying to fill a car with gas. Electric vehicles are catching on with businesses that are replacing their fleets with the more cost-effective and eco-friendly option as well as with individuals who want to make the switch.
Homes and businesses with electric vehicles need electric vehicle (EV) chargers so vehicles can be charged and ready to go. Nu-Trend provide EV charging station installation services to install charging stations and the necessary infrastructure for homes and businesses in Schaumburg, IL, and the surrounding Chicago suburbs. Our electricians are certified to install level 2 and level 3 chargers that can provide a reliable charge for a wide range of electric vehicles.
Types of EV Charging Stations
At Nu-Trend, we offer level 2 and level 3 EV charging stations that can efficiently provide a full charge for your electric vehicle. The EV charging stations we provide can charge a wide range of electric vehicles from makers such as Ford, BMW, Nissan, Toyota, Hyundai, Volvo, Kia, Volkswagen, and more. We do not offer EV charging stations for Tesla.
The following are the main types of EV charging stations:
Level 1
Level 1 chargers typically come with the purchase of an electric vehicle, and they plug into a standard outlet. However, they can only charge for about 3-5 miles per hour and may take more than 24 hours to provide a full charge.
Level 2
Level 2 chargers can be installed in homes and businesses, and they have enough power to fully charge an EV battery overnight. These charging stations use the same amount of voltage as a water heater.
Level 3
Level 3 chargers, also known as DC fast charging, are the types of EV chargers found at gas stations, airports, and other places for public use. They are typically only installed in commercial settings, and they are powerful enough to charge 80 percent of the battery in 30 minutes. However, these charging stations should be used sparingly as they can damage the battery with too much use.
EV Charger Installers
Both level 2 and level 3 chargers require professional installation to ensure that they are properly integrated within your electrical system. Our electricians at Nu-Trend are certified to install level 2 and level 3 EV chargers for homes and businesses. You can trust that we will provide quality installation services as well as ongoing maintenance and repairs when needed after the installation is complete.We can discuss your EV charging station options with you to determine the best option to suit your specific needs. We will also inspect your electrical system to ensure that it can handle the power required by your charging station. If your electrical system needs to be rewired to support the charging station, our electricians can make the adjustments to support the charger.
We provide residential EV charger installation and commercial EV charging installation services.
Fast charging
Level 2 chargers allow you to charge your electric vehicle at home much faster than the level 1 charger that comes with the car. Level 3 chargers allow businesses to keep fleets of electric vehicles charged and ready to go.
Convenient
You can charge your vehicle within your home or the property of your business instead of looking for a public charging station and waiting there for the battery to charge.
Cost-effective
Individuals and businesses save money with the ability to reliably charge their electric vehicles safely and quickly on their own property.

Nu-Trend did a professional installation job for my EV Charger at home. The technician was thorough and put safety first. Although, it was not cheap – The quality of work gives a peace of mind. They took care of City permit etc.
Kevin Gallagher
Updated panel from 100 to 200 A and installed EV charger. Team was very professional. Shane was responsive and ushered through the permit. Dave and Jr did a clean install and were respectful in my home. Would consider them for future electrical work.
Martin Gardner
We had Nu-Trend add an EV charging port to our garage which was organized via Qmert, who contracted Nu-Trend to do the installation. I first met Dave, who came out to inspect the job site and put together a quotation; he is an excellent, Knowledgeable, and professional electrician. Shane at Nu-Trend took care of all the paperwork which includes a work permit from the local council and inspection after installation. Dave and a co-worker who was also excellent came to the house and did the installation in about half a day, the quality of the workmanship was impeccable. The work passed Inspection with flying colors.
