ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING IN CARPORTS: WHAT TO KNOW<\/p>\n
Laguna Woods Village strives to be a green community, and we<\/p>\n
support your decision to reduce your vehicles carbon footprint.<\/p>\n
Please note there are limitations on charging electric vehicles<\/p>\n
(EV) in carports, and an EV charging permit is required. EV<\/p>\n
charging is offered as a convenience to members. Due to a<\/p>\n
limited number of available circuits, cooperation among<\/p>\n
neighbors is essential. When too many vehicles charge at the<\/p>\n
same time, including golf carts and electric vehicles, circuit<\/p>\n
breakers can become overloaded. This may disable charging<\/p>\n
capability for all vehicles within a bank of carports.<\/p>\n
To help ensure uninterrupted access for everyone, please follow these recommended EV<\/p>\n
charging guidelines:<\/p>\n
[J<\/p>\n
Golf carts generally charge during daylight hours. EVs should limit charging to<\/p>\n
between dusk and dawn. Refer to your vehicle manufacturer’s manual for<\/p>\n
instructions on setting charging times.<\/p>\n
Please limit the amount of electricity drawn during charging. We recommend<\/p>\n
reducing the current draw to no more than 8 amps. This typically allows two EVs to<\/p>\n
charge simultaneously within the same bank of carports. If additional vehicles are<\/p>\n
connected to the circuit, amperage should be reduced to 5 amps or less.<\/p>\n
Residents are encouraged to communicate with neighbors to coordinate and stagger charging<\/p>\n
times.<\/p>\n
EV owners must obtain a charging decal from Resident Services before charging. The decal<\/p>\n
must be clearly visible to avoid a notice of violation or fine.<\/p>\n
