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 Tohatchi 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.
