Our EV Charger Installation Process

Electrical Load Assessment

We begin with a detailed analysis of your electrical panel, existing circuits, main service rating, and the specific demands of your charger. San Mateo homes vary widely in load capacity, from older 100-amp systems in established neighborhoods to newly built homes with 200-amp or structured load centers.

We calculate available headroom to determine whether your panel can support the charger as-is or needs additional work.

Charger Placement & Mounting Plan

Next, we determine the safest, most practical mounting location. This includes examining:

• Distance from panel to parking space
• Conduit route feasibility
• Wall type and required hardware
• Cable reach for your vehicle
• Venting and clearance needs

Homes in areas with tight garages or limited side-yard access often benefit from strategic routing to maximize reach.

Dedicated Circuit Installation

We install a properly sized breaker, run dedicated wiring, add conduit or cable protectors, and mount the junctions required for safe, reliable charging. We keep the wiring route clean, direct, and organized.

Hardwiring or Receptacle Installation

Depending on your charger type, we either hardwire the unit or install a 240-volt outlet (NEMA 14-50, 6-50, or brand-specific requirements). Hardwiring often supports higher amperage loads, while outlet-based chargers offer easier replacement and relocation.

Commissioning, Testing & Usage Walkthrough

Once mounted and wired, we test:

• Voltage output
• Correct breaker operation
• Charging speed levels
• Connectivity features (when applicable)
• Grounding and conductor stability

We then walk you through charger operation, safe usage habits, and recommended load management strategies.

EV Charger Options Available

Level 1 Charging (Standard Outlet Charging)

Not typically recommended for daily EV use, but we can assess outlet condition or upgrade receptacles if needed for light charging.

Level 2 Charging (Most Popular)

This is the preferred home charging solution: faster, more efficient, and compatible with all major EV brands. Level 2 chargers typically require a 40–60-amp dedicated circuit, depending on the model.

Smart Chargers

We install chargers with:

• Wi-Fi connectivity
• Charging schedules
• Energy monitoring
• App-based usage tracking

These features help San Mateo residents manage charging during off-peak periods.

Frequently Asked Questions About EV Charger Installation

Do I need a panel upgrade?

Only if your existing panel lacks capacity for the additional load. Many homes can support a charger without upgrading; some require minor adjustments or load-sharing devices.

How long does installation take?

Most installations take several hours, depending on wiring distance, panel configuration, and mounting requirements.

Can you install in apartments or multi-unit buildings?

Yes, but HOA or property management approval is typically required. We assist with technical documentation when needed.
