Our Raleigh branch completed a professional Level 2 EV charger installation in Cary, NC for Duke Energy - Allumia on June 26, 2026. Led by technicians Gray Gorrell and Cody Perry, this project delivered a safe, code-compliant charging solution with a dedicated 60A circuit, clean conduit runs, and full permit handling—positioning the installation to qualify for a Duke Energy rebate.
Project Highlights
- Dedicated 60A circuit with a GFCI breaker for enhanced protection and code compliance.
- #6 SEU wiring sized for Level 2 charging loads and reliable performance.
- Neat conduit runs using 3/4" PVC and liquid-tight flexible conduit for durability and weather resistance.
- Customer-supplied EV charger professionally mounted and commissioned.
- Permit secured and inspection coordination handled by our Raleigh team.
- Duke Energy rebate readiness through compliant installation and documentation support.
From panel space evaluation to final testing, our crew ensured a seamless upgrade that meets local code and manufacturer specifications.
Scope of Work
- Installed a 60A GFCI breaker dedicated to the EV charger circuit.
- Pulled approximately #6 SEU (3-wire) conductors to support Level 2 charging demands.
- Routed wiring in 3/4" PVC conduit with transitions to 3/4" liquid-tight where flexibility and moisture protection were required.
- Completed mounting and electrical connections for the customer-supplied Level 2 charger (hardwired or receptacle as applicable).
- Labeled the circuit, verified torque and terminations, and performed functional testing.
- Managed the permit process and prepared documentation aligned with Duke Energy rebate requirements.
This configuration provides faster at-home charging, supports most Level 2 EVSEs, and leaves room for future vehicle needs.
