What We Installed
To ensure dependable Level 2 charging, we installed a dedicated 50-amp circuit in the existing electrical panel and terminated the run at a properly rated EV outlet. The #6 conductors were selected to match the circuit’s amperage and the customer’s charging needs. All terminations were torqued to specification and labeled for clarity at the panel.
Where the route passed through finished spaces, our team used professional wire fishing methods to keep surfaces intact and the final appearance tidy. This approach delivers a clean look while still providing the capacity and safety an EV charger requires.
Permitting and Duke Energy Rebate Support
Touchstone Electric pulled the required permit for this Charlotte project and completed the installation to current electrical code. We also documented the materials and labor in a format that aligns with Duke Energy’s EV rebate requirements, helping the customer streamline their submission and maximize available incentives.
