Professional Level 2 EV Charger Installation in Cary, NC
Touchstone Electric’s Raleigh branch recently completed a permitted Level 2 EV charger installation for homeowner Vihari Pragada in Cary, NC. Led by technician Matthew Castello, this project focused on safe, code-compliant power delivery using a clean surface-mounted EMT conduit run from the main panel and properly sized conductors for reliable home charging.
Completion date: November 12, 2025
What We Did on This Project
- Filed the electrical permit with the county to ensure the work was properly documented and code-compliant.
- Installed a customer-supplied Level 2 EV charger at the selected parking location.
- Ran approximately 40 feet of 3/4-inch EMT conduit from the main panel to the charging location, with secure mounting and appropriate fittings.
- Pulled roughly 45 feet of #6 THHN conductors to support a typical 60-amp EV charging circuit, ensuring correct terminations and polarity.
- Performed functional testing of the charging equipment to verify safe operation and proper charging behavior.
- Documented the installation for permit records and homeowner reference.
Every step was completed to meet local code requirements and manufacturer guidelines for a dependable, long-lasting EV charging setup.
Materials and Methods That Matter
For this Cary installation, our team used 3/4-inch EMT conduit for a neat, durable surface run that protects conductors and keeps the garage space tidy. We installed #6 THHN wiring to match the demands of a typical 60-amp Level 2 circuit, providing headroom for high-power EV charging while maintaining appropriate voltage drop and thermal performance.
All terminations were torqued to spec, conductors labeled where appropriate, and routing laid out for future serviceability. The result is a professional-grade EV charging station that looks clean, operates safely, and supports faster at-home charging.
