Level 2 EV Charger Installation in Charlotte, NC
Touchstone Electric’s Charlotte team, operating from our Matthews branch, completed a clean, code-compliant Level 2 EV charger installation for Duke Energy - Allumia in Charlotte, NC. Led by technician Viktor Opalko, this project added a dedicated 240V, 50-amp circuit to power a customer-supplied EV charger. The job was completed in September 2025 and included permitting and rebate assistance for a smooth, start-to-finish experience.
What We Installed
- Dedicated 50A breaker: A new two-pole 50-amp breaker was installed to supply the Level 2 charger with reliable power.
- New 6/2 NM-B circuit run: Approximately 20 feet of 6/2 NM-B cable was routed, secured, and protected per code to serve the EV charging location.
- Customer-supplied EV charger setup: The EVSE was mounted and connected in accordance with the manufacturer’s specifications for safe, efficient charging.
- Permit secured: We obtained the required permit for this installation in Charlotte, ensuring everything was ready for inspection.
Every connection, termination, and fastening point was completed with an emphasis on safety, longevity, and future serviceability—helping this Charlotte homeowner enjoy faster charging and peace of mind.
