Level 2 EV Charger Installation in Clayton, NC

Our Raleigh branch completed a permitted Level 2 EV charger installation for homeowner Jensen Hamblin in Clayton, NC. Led by technician Matthew Castello, this project was finished on December 6, 2025 and set up the home for safe, reliable overnight charging with a dedicated 60-amp circuit.

All work was performed to current electrical code and local utility standards, with a focus on neat workmanship, clean routing, and long-term safety.

Project highlights

Permit pulled and closed with the local authority having jurisdiction for a code-compliant installation.
Customer-supplied Level 2 EV charger professionally installed and commissioned.
New 60A breaker added for a dedicated charging circuit sized for typical Level 2 loads.
EMT conduit (3/4 in.) installed with proper fittings and supports for a clean, protected run.
THHN #6 conductors pulled to the charger location to match the 60A circuit requirements.
Neat labeling, secure terminations, and verification testing for safe operation.

Materials and methods used

To protect conductors and maintain a tidy finish, our team installed approximately 15 feet of 3/4-inch EMT conduit with the appropriate connectors, straps, and fittings. We pulled approximately 20 feet of #6 THHN copper conductors for the 60-amp circuit. The charger was mounted per manufacturer guidelines, clearances were observed, and the circuit was terminated on a new 60A breaker in the service panel.

This approach delivers a durable, inspector-approved installation that balances performance and safety while keeping future serviceability in mind.

Permitting and code compliance

Touchstone Electric handled the electrical permit for this installation from start to finish, including required coordination and inspection. Please note: the electrical permit covers electrical scope only. If a jurisdiction requires other non-electrical permits (for example, historic preservation, zoning, environmental/septic, or builder/subcontractor permits), those are separate from the electrical permit and addressed on a case-by-case basis.

Duke Energy EV rebate assistance

This project was set up to align with Duke Energy’s EV charging rebate program parameters. We clarified which line items typically qualify and which do not—common exclusions include panel tune-ups and surge protection. Our team provides documentation and guidance to help homeowners navigate available incentives, so you can get charging sooner and make the most of eligible rebates.
