What Falls Under EV & Backup Power

EV & Backup Power covers the jobs that add the most demand to a house, or protect it when power fails. EV Charger Installation runs a dedicated 240-volt circuit from the panel to the garage or driveway for a Level 2 charger; the home's loads are added up first to confirm the panel has the capacity and the space. Tesla Charger Installation is the same job built around a Tesla Wall Connector or the mobile connector on a 240-volt outlet. Generator Installation covers any generator work: a standby generator with a transfer switch, or an inlet and transfer switch so a portable generator can feed chosen circuits without an extension cord running through a window. Whole-Home Surge Protection mounts a surge device at the panel so a spike from the grid or a nearby strike is shunted before it reaches the heat pump, the charger or the electronics. Where the utility must disconnect for a service change, we book the disconnect and reconnect with PGE or Pacific Power for you. The rows below sort out which job you have.
