Level 2 EV Charger Installation in Graham, NC
Touchstone Electric’s Charlotte branch (Matthews team) completed a professional Level 2 EV charger installation for Yu Bai in Graham, NC on June 19, 2026. This project delivered a clean, code-compliant setup with a dedicated 60-amp circuit and a short, tidy run to the main electrical panel.
The customer-supplied charger was securely mounted to the right side of the panel, minimizing conductor length and keeping the equipment conveniently accessible for everyday charging.
What We Installed
- Dedicated 60A circuit on a new 60-amp breaker, appropriately sized for many Level 2 EV chargers.
- Feeder and wiring: 16 feet of #6 SEU (3-wire) for a reliable, dedicated supply to the EV charging equipment.
- Conduit protection: 10 feet of 1-inch PVC conduit with the necessary fittings and supports for a neat, protected run.
- Charger placement: Mounted to the right side of the panel for a streamlined layout and efficient use of space.
- Electrical permit filed with the local authority to ensure inspection readiness and compliance.
This job included the appliance connection during a single visit (receptacle or hard-wired per the unit’s specifications). While a basic appliance installation does not typically include the breaker, feeder, or permit, this Graham project specifically included those components as listed above for a complete solution.
Code-Compliant and Inspection-Ready
Our technician, Mark Alaev, completed the installation to current electrical code and the charger manufacturer’s requirements. The dedicated circuit, clear labeling, and neatly routed conduit support safe operation and make the installation ready for inspection.
- Dedicated circuit sized for continuous Level 2 charging loads.
- Conduit and cable routing installed to current code standards.
- Panel labeling and a clean, organized finish.
Permitting Notes
Touchstone Electric handled the electrical permit for this installation. Some projects may also require non-electrical permits (such as zoning, historic preservation, or similar). Those are not included unless specifically added. If additional permits are needed for your property, we will advise you on the steps to take and can provide pricing to process any required non-electrical permits.
Why a 60-Amp Level 2 Circuit?
A 60-amp supply provides robust capacity for many modern Level 2 EV chargers and helps future‑proof the home as charging needs evolve. Mounting the charger beside the panel reduces material, shortens wire runs, and simplifies maintenance over time.
- Significantly faster charging than standard household outlets.
- Dedicated capacity reduces the chance of nuisance trips when other appliances operate.
- Supports a wide range of Level 2 chargers, subject to load calculations and manufacturer specifications.
