NJ NACHI welcomes Mike Twitty of Homescan Training & Consulting.
Advancement in technology always presents new challenges to home inspectors. Electric vehicles are becoming increasingly common. Understanding the power systems for EV charging requires some additional training for electricians and home inspectors. In this course, we will cover the different types of charging systems, along with branch circuit requirements. Overcurrent protection, GFCI requirements, maximum loads, and receptacle ratings will be explained. The inspector’s responsibilities and limitations will also be discussed. This training is necessary to educate home inspectors about the load demands these systems require. EV charging circuits will often become the largest source of power consumption in a home.
