We mount the charger in your garage or outside near your parking area. Our electricians test every connection. We verify proper ground fault protection before we leave. You get a clean installation that charges your vehicle safely.

Common Questions

Residential Electrical FAQs

Common questions from Triangle homeowners about residential electrical services. Don’t see yours? Call us directly — we’re happy to help.
How long does a typical installation take?
Most installations take four to six hours. Time depends on the distance from your electrical panel to the charging location. If your panel needs an upgrade to handle the additional load, we complete that work first. This adds time to the project. We schedule panel upgrades separately. This ensures proper permitting and inspection. Simple installations with short wire runs in an attached garage usually finish in a single visit.
It depends on your current panel capacity and existing electrical load. We perform a load calculation first. This determines if you have enough available amperage for a 40 or 50 amp charging circuit. Panels with less than 30 amps of spare capacity typically need an upgrade. Older 100-amp panels often require replacement with 200-amp service. This safely accommodates modern home loads plus vehicle charging.
Most homeowners choose a 40 or 50 amp circuit for their Level 2 charger. A 40 amp circuit delivers about 9.6 kW of charging power. This adds roughly 25 to 30 miles of range per hour. That fully charges most electric vehicles overnight. We recommend 50 amps if your vehicle supports faster onboard charging. It also helps if you drive long distances daily and need quicker turnaround times.
Yes, we install outdoor chargers regularly. We use weatherproof enclosures and appropriate cable management. The charging unit must be rated for outdoor use. It needs a NEMA 3R or better rating for weather protection. We mount the unit on an exterior wall near your parking spot. All wiring connections are protected from moisture. Conduit protects the wire run from your panel to the outdoor location per code.
We pull all required electrical permits. We coordinate inspections with your local building department. The permit ensures your installation meets NEC Article 625 and local amendments. An inspector verifies proper wire sizing, circuit protection, and grounding before final approval. We schedule the inspection after installation. We address any concerns the inspector raises. You receive documentation of the approved installation for your records.

Installation costs vary based on several factors. Distance from your panel is one factor. Whether you need an upgrade is another. Local permit fees also affect the price. A straightforward installation with a short wire run in an attached garage typically costs less than a full panel upgrade with long conduit runs. We provide a detailed estimate after evaluating your specific situation. The quote includes all materials, labor, permits, and testing.
