Common questions about EV charger installation in Ben Lomond
How long does installation take?
Most home EV charger installations in Ben Lomond take two to four hours once the permit is in hand. Long conduit runs or trenching can make it a full day.
Do you install Tesla chargers for non-Tesla cars?
Yes. We install the Tesla Wall Connector, the Universal Wall Connector and J1772 chargers, and we'll help you choose based on the vehicles you own now and may own later.
Do I need a permit for an EV charger in Ben Lomond?
Yes, a new 240-volt circuit requires a permit and inspection. We handle both. For other heavy loads, see dedicated circuit installation.
Can my panel handle an EV charger?
Many 100-amp panels can, with the right charger setting or a load-management device. We run a load calculation first. If you do need more capacity, see electrical panel upgrades.
What customers say
They installed our Level 2 charger in the garage and explained the load calculation in plain English. Clean conduit run, no mess, and the price matched the quote.
Our old 100 amp panel tripped every time the AC and dryer ran together. Bayshore quoted the 200 amp upgrade on the spot, handled the permit and had us back on by late afternoon.
Half the house went dark at 9 pm and an outlet smelled hot. They talked me through shutting off the breaker and had someone at the door that night. He fixed a burned connection and checked the rest of the circuit.
