Level 2 EV Charger Installation in Durham, NC
Touchstone Electric’s Raleigh branch completed a professional Level 2 EV charger install for homeowner Katie Benjamin in Durham, NC. On 2026-02-20, our technician Jared Mata delivered a permit-backed, dedicated 240V charging circuit with a new 50A breaker, routed cable, and a clean connection to the customer-supplied charger. The project was finished with careful documentation to make the installation rebate-ready for Duke Energy’s EV charger program.
This job reflects our EV Charging and Level 2 EV Charger Installation services for Durham residents—prioritizing safety, neat workmanship, and streamlined permitting from start to finish.
What We Did on This Project
- Pulled the electrical permit with the local authority so the work is inspected and properly recorded.
- Installed a 50-amp breaker dedicated to the EV charging circuit, sized for Level 2 charging needs.
- Ran 8/3 NM-B cable for the 240V circuit, protecting the run with 1-inch PVC conduit where exposed and as needed for a durable, tidy pathway.
- Connected the customer-provided Level 2 charger per manufacturer guidance, including labeling at the panel and final tidy-up at the charge location.
- Tested the circuit for correct voltage and operation to verify fast, reliable Level 2 charging performance.
- Documented the work so the installation is ready for the Duke Energy EV charger rebate submission.
Materials and Specifications
- Breaker: 50-amp dedicated two-pole breaker for the EV charging circuit.
- Cable: Approximately 35 feet of 8/3 NM-B for the 240V run.
- Conduit: About 30 feet of 1-inch PVC with fittings and supports where protection was required.

These specifications provide headroom for common Level 2 charging requirements and a neat, protected pathway from the panel to the charging location.
