Professional Level 2 EV Charger Installation in Chapel Hill, NC
Our Raleigh branch completed a permitted Level 2 EV charging station installation in Chapel Hill, NC on June 19, 2025. Led by technician Jared Mata, the project delivered a safe, code-compliant, and dependable home charging solution using a dedicated 60A circuit sized for modern EV needs.
We installed the customer-supplied charger and ensured the electrical system was properly configured to handle continuous charging loads with clear labeling and thorough testing at completion.
Scope of Work
- Permit pulled and filed: We obtained the required electrical permit with the local authority to ensure full compliance and inspection readiness.
- Customer-supplied Level 2 charger installed: Set in accordance with manufacturer requirements, including mounting, wiring, and function testing during a single visit.
- Dedicated 60A breaker: Installed a 60-amp standard breaker to provide a reliable, dedicated circuit for the EV charging station.
- #6 SEU wiring: Ran approximately 15 feet of #6 SEU (3-wire) conductors to support the 60A circuit with proper terminations and secure routing.
- Panel space optimization: Installed two 20A tandem breakers to free up capacity in the service panel while maintaining safe circuit organization.
- Verification and labeling: Completed circuit identification, torque checks, and operational testing of the EV charger.
Safety, Compliance, and Quality
Level 2 EV charging requires careful attention to conductor sizing, breaker selection, and installation methods. By using a dedicated 60A circuit with #6 conductors, we help ensure reliable performance and reduced voltage drop during continuous charging. All work was performed to current electrical code standards, with an inspection-ready finish and clear, permanent labeling for homeowner convenience and future service.
From permit filing through the final checklist, our team prioritized safe routing, secure terminations, and a tidy appearance that integrates with the home’s electrical system.
