Completed Level 2 EV Charger Installation in Charlotte, NC

Touchstone Electric’s Charlotte team, operating from our Matthews branch, recently completed a professional Level 2 EV charger installation for Duke Energy - Allumia in Charlotte, NC. The project was finished on January 20, 2025 by our technician Viktor Opalko, who delivered a clean, code-compliant setup designed for reliable daily charging and future vehicle needs.

This installation centered on a dedicated 60-amp, 240V circuit to power a customer-supplied EVSE, ensuring fast, dependable Level 2 charging at home while maintaining panel capacity, safety, and code compliance.

Scope of Work and Installation Details

New dedicated 60A circuit installed specifically for the EV charger to prevent overloads and meet manufacturer requirements.
60A breaker added in the main electrical panel, clearly labeled for the EV charger.
SEU #6 (3-wire) cable installed to deliver the correct ampacity for Level 2 charging.
3/4" PVC conduit neatly mounted with the appropriate fittings and supports for a durable, professional finish.
Panel space optimization completed with a 15A tandem breaker as appropriate to free up space while staying within panel listing and code requirements.
Testing and verification of voltage, breaker function, and EVSE operation for safe, dependable performance.
Clean workmanship with secure terminations, tidy routing, and clear labeling for easy future service.

The result is a robust charging solution that supports faster daily charging and is engineered to perform safely for years to come.

Duke Energy EV Rebate and Permitting
