Level 2 EV Charger Installation in Charlotte, NC
On December 2, 2025, our Charlotte team completed a customer‑supplied Level 2 EV charger installation for Duke Energy - Allumia. The project was handled by technician Chris Rogers and dispatched through our Matthews branch to serve the greater Charlotte area.
This service included a new dedicated 240V, 60‑amp circuit with a Siemens breaker, properly sized conductors, permitting, and guidance on utility rebates to help the customer take advantage of available incentives.
What We Installed and Why
- 60A Siemens breaker: Provides a reliable, dedicated supply to meet the charger’s continuous load requirements.
- 15 ft of #6 SEU (3‑wire) feeder: Correctly sized conductors for a 60‑amp EV charging circuit, ensuring safe, efficient power delivery.
- Customer‑supplied Level 2 charger setup: Professionally mounted and connected to the new circuit during a single visit.
- Permit and coordination: We pulled the required Duke permit and coordinated all compliance steps for a smooth, code‑compliant installation.
The result is a dependable Level 2 charging solution that supports faster charging times and long‑term performance for daily use.
Safe, Code‑Compliant Electrical Work
EV charging circuits operate continuously at higher loads, so proper design and installation are essential. Our team:
- Installed a dedicated 240V/60A circuit to prevent nuisance tripping and protect other home circuits.
- Used #6 SEU conductors to match the breaker and anticipated load, with correct terminations and torque at the panel.
- Ensured proper labeling and clear workspace at the service equipment for future maintenance and inspections.
These steps align with local code and manufacturer best practices, helping maximize charger lifespan and household electrical safety.
Permitting and Duke Energy Rebate Support
Touchstone Electric managed the permitting from start to finish, keeping the project on schedule and inspection‑ready. Because this project was completed under the Duke Energy program, we also guided the customer through the EV rebate process.
Our detailed documentation and itemized scope (including the breaker, wiring, and installation labor) made it straightforward for the customer to submit and track their rebate. By handling the paperwork and providing clear cost breakdowns, we helped reduce out‑of‑pocket expenses and accelerate reimbursement.
