## EV Charger Installation in San Carlos, CA

California put more EVs on the road than any other state, and San Carlos garages are catching up one 240 volt circuit at a time. The install itself is straightforward. The part people get wrong is capacity.

Call (833) 652-8933 and describe what is happening. If it is a same-day job we will book it today, and if it needs a site visit to quote properly we will tell you that too.

## Situations we see in San Carlos

### Renting or planning to move

A 14-50 receptacle install keeps the charger portable and the circuit reusable, which is the flexible choice.

### Charger is far from the panel

Long runs need voltage-drop math and the right conduit. We size up conductors rather than accepting a slow, warm circuit.

### Not enough service capacity

Either upgrade the service, or install a load management device that throttles the charger when the house is busy. Both are real options and we price both.

### Detached garage with a small feeder

Often the existing feeder can't carry a charger. A new subpanel and feeder is the durable answer.

## Reviews from San Mateo County

★★★★★

Smart switches wouldn't work because there was no neutral. They pulled one, got everything on Lutron, and set up the scenes before leaving.

Tesla Wall Connector in the garage, clean conduit run, done in an afternoon. They talked me out of a panel upgrade I didn't actually need.

Kitchen breaker kept popping whenever we ran the microwave and kettle. They put in a dedicated circuit instead of just telling us to use one appliance at a time.

## EV Charger Installation in San Carlos — questions

Can you install a charger in a detached garage in San Carlos?

Yes. That usually means a new feeder and a small subpanel out there, which we quote as part of the job.

Do I need a panel upgrade for a Level 2 charger?

Not always. If your load calculation is tight, a load management device can let you charge on existing service. If your panel is already full, an upgrade is the cleaner long-term answer.

Do you pull the permit for EV charger installs in San Carlos?

Yes. EVSE circuits are permitted and inspected in San Mateo County jurisdictions, and we handle the paperwork and the inspection visit.

Should I hardwire or use a 14-50 outlet?

Hardwiring supports higher continuous current and is the better choice at 48 amps. A 14-50 receptacle is more flexible if you may move or change chargers.

How much does EV charger installation cost in San Carlos?

A garage install close to the panel is the low end. Cost climbs with distance, trenching, and any panel work your service needs. Call (833) 652-8933 and we will price the install and any capacity work separately so you can see both.
