Touchstone Electric’s Charlotte team completed a professional Level 2 EV charger installation for Duke Energy - Allumia in Charlotte, NC.

Project Overview
Our electricians installed a new 60-amp dedicated circuit engineered for reliable Level 2 charging performance.

A durable 4-11/16 junction box and Polaris lugs were used for secure terminations, and the customer-supplied EV charger was connected per manufacturer specifications.
All work was completed to current NEC and local code requirements, with clear labeling and thorough testing to verify correct voltage, grounding, and GFCI protections where applicable.
