Level 2 EV Charger Installation Completed in Raleigh
Touchstone Electric completed a Level 2 EV charger installation in Raleigh for Duke Energy - Allumia. The project included adding a new dedicated 60-amp circuit from the main electrical panel to support a hardwired electric vehicle charger. A dedicated circuit helps provide the electrical capacity needed for efficient, reliable home charging without sharing power with other household equipment.
Brad Williams performed the electrical work, including the circuit installation, breaker installation, wiring, and protective conduit needed for the new charger connection. This type of installation is designed for homeowners who want the convenience of faster Level 2 charging at home.
What This EV Charging Project Included
For this Raleigh EV charger installation, our electrician prepared the electrical pathway from the main panel to the charger location and completed the required hardwired connection for the customer-supplied charging equipment.
- New dedicated 60-amp circuit for a Level 2 EV charger
- Installation of a 60-amp breaker at the main electrical panel
- Electrical wiring sized for the charger circuit
- Protective flexible conduit and applicable connectors for the wiring run
- Hardwiring of the customer-supplied EV charging equipment
- Permit coordination for the electrical installation
Using a dedicated circuit is an important part of a proper EV charging installation. It gives the charger its own protected electrical path and helps ensure the panel, breaker, wiring, and charger connection are matched to the needs of the installation.
Why Choose a 60-Amp Circuit for a Level 2 Charger?
Level 2 EV chargers are a popular choice for Raleigh drivers because they can provide substantially faster charging than a standard household outlet. The right circuit size depends on the charger specifications, the electrical panel, the wiring route, and local electrical requirements. A 60-amp circuit is commonly used for higher-capacity hardwired Level 2 charger installations when the equipment and electrical system are suitable.
Before installing an EV charger, a qualified electrician should evaluate the home’s electrical panel and identify the correct route for the new circuit. Proper breaker selection, conductor sizing, secure terminations, and conduit protection are all essential details for a dependable installation.
