Faster Charging for Your Electric Vehicle

We Install Level 2 Chargers the Right Way

We start every job with a load calculation to make sure your panel can handle the additional amperage. Most Level 2 chargers require a dedicated 240-volt circuit at 40 or 50 amps. Our electricians run the proper gauge wire from your panel to the charging location. We mount the unit securely and test all connections before we finish. If your panel needs an upgrade, we handle that too. We pull permits where required and schedule inspections. You get a clean installation that meets NEC Article 625 requirements. Our team has installed chargers in garages, carports, and outdoor locations. We protect the wiring in conduit and position the charger where it works best for your parking spot. You can start charging your EV safely the same day we finish.

Panel Upgrades and Circuit Protection

Making Sure Your Electrical System Can Handle It

We inspect your existing panel before we quote the job. Many homes need a service upgrade to support a 50-amp charger circuit. We install the right breaker size and GFCI protection for your specific charger model. Our electricians explain what your system needs and why.

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 Level 2 charger installation take?
Most installations take four to six hours if your panel has space and capacity. We need additional time if we’re upgrading your electrical panel or running wire a long distance. We pull permits in the morning and complete most installations the same day. Inspections usually happen within a few days depending on your local building department schedule.
Most residential Level 2 chargers use either a 40-amp or 50-amp breaker on a dedicated 240-volt circuit. The breaker size depends on your specific charger model and its maximum draw. We size the wire according to the breaker and run length. We always follow NEC requirements for continuous loads and apply the 80 percent rule for circuit sizing.
We perform a load calculation to determine if your panel has enough capacity. Many older 100-amp or 150-amp panels are already near their limit. We add up your existing loads and factor in the charger demand. If you need an upgrade, we provide options for 200-amp service. We never add a charger circuit without confirming your panel can safely support it.
Most jurisdictions require an electrical permit for Level 2 charger installation because it involves a new 240-volt circuit. We handle the permit application and paperwork. The local inspector checks our work to verify proper installation and code compliance. Permits protect you by ensuring the work meets safety standards. We schedule the inspection once installation is complete.
Installation costs vary based on distance from your panel, whether you need a service upgrade, and the mounting location. A straightforward garage installation with panel space available typically costs less than running wire to an exterior wall or upgrading your main service. We provide exact pricing after inspecting your electrical panel and measuring the wire run. Permits and inspection fees are additional.

We have several options when your panel has no available spaces. We can install a tandem breaker if your panel allows them. We can upgrade to a larger panel with more spaces. Some installations qualify for a sub-panel if the main has enough capacity. We assess your specific situation and recommend the most cost-effective solution that meets code requirements.
