In California, the process for installing a charging station begins with an assessment of your home's electrical system. We examine your existing panel capacity and the wiring runs needed to reach your garage or parking area. Permitting requirements can vary by city and county, and we manage this process to ensure compliance with local electrical codes. The type of charger you select, whether Level 1 or Level 2, and the complexity of the electrical work dictate the project's scope.
