Level 2 EV Charger Installation in Mount Holly, NC
Touchstone Electric recently completed a turnkey Level 2 EV charger installation in Mount Holly, NC for Duke Energy - Allumia. Performed by our Charlotte business unit from the Matthews branch and led on-site by technician Josh Key, this project delivered reliable charging, clean workmanship, and full permit and rebate support.
Completed on 10/02/2024, the installation was designed to meet current electrical code, ensure future expandability, and qualify for available Duke Energy rebates.
Project Highlights
- Local electrical permit secured and inspection coordination included
- New 100-amp, 2-pole breaker and dedicated subpanel for EV charging capacity
- THHN #2 feeder conductors pulled for a robust, low-voltage-drop supply
- Neat 1-inch PVC conduit run with professional fittings and supports
- Clean wire fishing through finished areas to minimize wall disruption
- Customer-supplied Level 2 EV charger integrated and commissioned
- Duke Energy rebate assistance from documentation to submission guidance
This approach ensures a safe, code-compliant charging circuit and a pathway that’s ready for current and future EV charging loads, all while keeping the installation tidy and accessible for maintenance.
Why This Setup Works for Home EV Charging
A dedicated subpanel fed by THHN #2 conductors and protected by a 100-amp breaker provides consistent power delivery to a Level 2 charger, helping reduce nuisance tripping and voltage drop. The PVC conduit protects conductors while keeping the run organized and serviceable. Together, these choices help extend equipment lifespan and improve charging reliability.
By hardwiring or properly receptacling a customer-supplied EVSE, we streamline the installation while maintaining flexibility for future upgrades. Every connection is torqued to spec, labeled, and verified under load to confirm safe operation.
