Service area: Charlotte, NC | Branch: Charlotte (Matthews) | Technician: Chris Rogers | Completion date: May 22, 2026

Touchstone Electric completed a permitted Level 2 EV charging setup for Duke Energy - Allumia in Charlotte, NC. The installation delivers reliable, code-compliant charging with a dedicated 40-amp circuit and a versatile NEMA 14-50 outlet, ideal for many Level 2 EV chargers and mobile connectors.

Project Overview

Our Charlotte team provided a turnkey installation designed for performance, safety, and rebate readiness. The customer supplied the EV charging equipment, and our licensed technician handled the power supply, receptacle, and permitting to ensure a smooth experience from start to finish.

Dedicated 40-amp Square D breaker installed for the EV charging circuit
25 feet of 8/3 NM-B wiring for a robust 240V supply to the charging location
NEMA 14-50 receptacle for flexible Level 2 charging compatibility
Appliance hookup for the customer-supplied EV charger
Permit secured to meet local requirements and streamline inspection
Electrical helper support to maintain efficiency and jobsite safety

The result is a clean, dependable installation that supports typical Level 2 charging needs while protecting your home’s electrical system with a properly sized breaker and high-quality materials.

Why This Configuration Works

40-amp circuit: A common standard for Level 2 charging, providing ample capacity for many residential EV chargers.
NEMA 14-50 outlet: Offers flexibility for EV drivers who use a mobile connector or may change chargers in the future.
8/3 wiring: Durable conductors sized for the circuit, helping ensure safe, efficient operation.
Square D breaker: A trusted brand component for dependable overcurrent protection.

Every component was selected to balance performance, safety, and future flexibility, so the homeowner can charge confidently now and adapt as needs evolve.
