Do I need a permit for a Level 2 EV charger in Fullerton, CA?

Yes in nearly all cases. Level 2 EVSE installs need a permit and inspection under the California Electrical Code (CEC), including NEC Article 625 requirements for electric vehicle power transfer. We pull the permit and size the circuit correctly.

Service Questions

Do you install EV chargers in Fullerton?

Yes. We install Level 2 chargers for Fullerton homes, check panel capacity, upgrade when needed, and handle permits. Every project is different — we provide a custom quote after we see your site. Typical EV charger installation work often starts at $1,000+ before materials, permits, and final scope; there is no one-size-fits-all maximum.

Can I use a dryer outlet for an EV charger?

Sometimes for temporary or lower-power charging with a listed cord-and-plug EVSE, but sharing a dryer circuit is usually a bad long-term plan and may violate continuous-load and receptacle rules. Dedicated EVSE circuits sized under NEC Article 625 are the safe, inspectable solution.

What breaker and wire do I need for a Level 2 charger?

Most 32A Level 2 chargers need a 40A breaker and copper conductors sized for the continuous load (NEC treats EVSE as continuous — typically 125% of the continuous current). Some 48A units need 60A. Exact wire gauge depends on length, routing, and the manufacturer listing — we size it on site.

Do you offer emergency electrical service in Fullerton?

Yes. We provide 24/7 emergency electrical service in Fullerton for hazards such as partial power loss, sparking devices, and failed panels — call (657) 239-6331 as soon as you notice a problem.

"Michael the technician is honest and doesn't try to charge you for anything unnecessary. One thing he does that other electricians dont is he uses the diagnostic charge towards your repair if a repair is needed. Not many are this honest and his prices are much more fair compared to the competition. He is forsure my go to Ev charger technician from now on. Keep up the good work!"

"Michael came to install 4 ceiling fans, a Tesla charger, and a new outlet in the bathroom. He gave me a good price. Saying I had to write him a good review. I got busy with personal issues at home. But I knew I might call him again for more work around the house. And I'd write the review later. He quotes me almost triple the price, this time. Saying his prices have changed. And badgering me about how I didn't write the review. He says he's thinking about adhering to the same price as our first job, if I write the review. I write him a nice review.Show it to him. He tells me, I should've written the review two months ago, and he won't change his pricing. So here we are. I don't like people who manipulate for a review."
