## EV Charger Installation in Chico, CA

Charging on a standard wall outlet adds a few miles an hour. A properly installed Level 2 circuit in your Chico garage refills a commuting battery overnight, and it is one of the most requested jobs we do in Butte County.

## Situations we see in Chico

### 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.

### Renting or planning to move

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

## Reviews from Butte County

★★★★★

Hot tub circuit and disconnect. Permit, inspection, everything. Showed up when they said and cleaned up after.

Bought a 1948 house with cloth wiring. They phased the rewire so we always had power in half the house, and gave us paperwork our insurer accepted.

Flickering through the whole house turned out to be a loose neutral at the service. They found it in under an hour when two other companies had shrugged.

## EV Charger Installation in Chico — questions

How much does EV charger installation cost in Chico?

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.

Do you pull the permit for EV charger installs in Chico?

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

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.

Can you install a charger in a detached garage in Chico?

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

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.
