Level 2 EV Charger Installation in Matthews, NC
Touchstone Electric completed a professional Level 2 EV charger installation for Taylor & Katelyn Dubois in Matthews, NC. Completed on July 31, 2026 by our Charlotte branch team, technicians Tyquan Johnson and Dillon Culley installed a dedicated 60-amp circuit and mounted the customer-supplied charger to the right of the home’s main electrical panel.
To achieve a clean, finished look, our electricians evaluated routing through the attic above the garage to keep wiring concealed inside the wall where feasible. When in-wall routing isn’t possible, we plan for a short, neat run of surface conduit as a last resort—always prioritizing safety, durability, and aesthetics for a tidy, code-compliant result.
Scope of Work and Materials
- Electrical permitting: Filed the electrical permit with the county for the Level 2 charger circuit.
- Dedicated 60A breaker: Installed a new 60-amp breaker to supply the charger with reliable power for faster home charging.
- Properly sized conductors: Ran SEU #6 (3-wire) copper/aluminum service entry cable, matched to the 60A load requirements.
- Charger placement and termination: Mounted the EV charger to the right of the panel and terminated conductors per manufacturer specifications.
- Clean routing approach: Prioritized in-wall wiring via attic access where possible; used minimal surface conduit only if needed.
This dedicated Level 2 setup provides dependable, high-output charging for nightly top-offs and longer-range vehicles, all while protecting your home’s electrical system and maintaining a professional, low-profile appearance.
Code-Compliant, Permitted Installation
Your safety and investment come first. Touchstone Electric installs EV charging equipment to current NEC standards and local code, and this Matthews project included an electrical permit filed with the county. As requirements vary by jurisdiction, the permit provided covers only the electrical permit. If a project requires non-electrical permits (for example, Historic Preservation, Environmental/Septic, Zoning, Builder, or separate subcontractor permits), those are not included; if needed, we’ll advise you on next steps or provide pricing to process additional filings.
From panel capacity checks to conductor sizing and breaker selection, every step is handled by licensed professionals to ensure safe operation and long-term reliability.
