No more hunting for public charging stations or waiting in line. Your car charges overnight while you sleep, ready for whatever your day brings.
Level 2 home chargers deliver about 25 miles of range per hour of charging. That means a full overnight charge gives you the freedom to drive where you need to go without range anxiety.
You’ll save money too. Home charging costs less than public stations, and you can take advantage of off-peak electricity rates that some utilities offer for EV owners.
Jimco Electric has been handling residential electrical emergencies and installations across Grundy County for over two decades. We understand what it’s like when your electrical system isn’t working right.
Our team specializes in the kind of urgent electrical issues that can’t wait – flickering lights, power outages, burning smells, and electrical panel problems. Now we’re bringing that same expertise to EV charger installations.
We’re licensed, bonded, and insured, with certification from the Illinois Commerce Commission for EV charging station installation. When you need electrical work done right the first time, you want someone who’s seen it all.
First, we’ll assess your home’s electrical system to determine what’s needed. This includes checking your electrical panel capacity and the best location for your charger.
If your home needs an electrical upgrade, we’ll handle that too. Many homes built before the EV era need additional circuits or panel upgrades to safely handle the increased electrical load.
We’ll obtain all necessary permits and ensure everything meets local building codes and National Electrical Code requirements. Once installation is complete, we’ll test everything to make sure your charger works perfectly and show you how to use it.

Grundy County is part of Illinois’ Priority Area 1 for EV infrastructure development, which means residents have access to significant rebates and incentives. ComEd customers can receive up to $3,750 in rebates for EV charger installation.
Level 2 chargers are the sweet spot for home installation. They’re eight times faster than plugging into a regular outlet, but don’t require the industrial-grade electrical work that Level 3 chargers need.
Most Grundy County homes can accommodate Level 2 installation with some electrical work. The charger uses a 240-volt circuit similar to what powers your electric dryer, but requires its own dedicated circuit for safety and optimal performance.
