Installing an EV charging station starts with a site evaluation. We'll assess your electrical panel's capacity to handle the new circuit and ensure your home's wiring can support the load safely. For many San Jose homes, this may involve a panel upgrade or a dedicated circuit installation. We handle all aspects—from permitting to the final connection—ensuring your charger is installed correctly, efficiently, and up to local code.

Our comprehensive electrical inspection involves checking your entire system for safety and code compliance. We examine your main service panel for proper labeling and capacity, test outlets and switches, inspect wiring conditions, and verify that ground fault and arc fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs/AFCIs) are functioning. The goal is to identify potential hazards—like overloaded circuits common with added appliances—and provide you with a clear, honest assessment and recommendations for any needed repairs or upgrades.
