Level 2 charger installation in Los Alamos

Level 2 charging runs on 240 volts and typically adds 25 to 40 miles of range per hour, against 3 to 5 miles from a wall outlet. A Level 2 charger installation in Los Alamos usually means a dedicated 40 to 60 amp circuit from the panel to the garage or driveway, with the charger hardwired or plugged into a 14-50 receptacle.

Tesla charger installation and Tesla Wall Connector installation

The Tesla Wall Connector charges at up to 48 amps on a 60 amp circuit. Our Tesla charger installation in Los Alamos includes mounting, wiring, setting the charger to match the circuit and testing with your car. We also install the Universal Wall Connector and adapters for other vehicles.

Home EV charging station: will my panel handle it?

An EV charger is a continuous load, so it counts heavily in the load calculation. Many 200 amp homes have room. Homes with 100 amp service may need a load management device or a panel upgrade. Our EVSE installation service checks this before any wire is pulled.

Electrical work in Los Alamos and Los Alamos County

Electric baseboard heat, radiant floors, well pumps and mini-split heat pumps all draw real amperage. Homes around Los Alamos that add a heat pump or EV charger to an older service often need a panel or service upgrade first, and we check that with a load calculation.

Electric service in Los Alamos County is typically provided by the Los Alamos County Department of Public Utilities, depending on your address.

EV Charger Installation FAQ for Los Alamos

How much does EV charger installation cost in Los Alamos?

The main factors are the distance from the panel to the charger, the circuit size and whether the panel has capacity. A short run in an attached garage costs far less than a long run to a detached one.

Do I need a panel upgrade for an EV charger?

Not always. If a load calculation shows spare capacity, we add the circuit. If not, a load management device or a lower charging rate can often avoid a full upgrade.

Hardwired or plug-in?

Hardwired is cleaner, allows higher charging rates and suits outdoor installs. A 14-50 outlet is flexible if you may move the charger or take it with you.

How long does installation take?

Most home installations take two to four hours once the charger is on site.

What customers say

They checked the panel first, explained the options and installed our Level 2 charger in the garage in an afternoon. Price was exactly what they quoted.
Tanya L. EV charger

Half the house went dark at 9 at night and there was a burning smell at the panel. Someone answered straight away, told me what to shut off and had an electrician out fast. Fixed that night.
David R. Emergency call

They did the electrical for our restaurant build-out and worked nights so we could keep the other side open. Showed up when they said they would, every time.
