EV Charger Installation · San Diego, CA
Level 2 home chargers, Tesla Wall Connectors and commercial fast-charging stations — permitted, code-compliant and installed by C-10 electricians.
Electric vehicle adoption in San Diego County is among the highest in California, and homeowners across La Jolla, Clairemont, North Park and Chula Vista are upgrading their electrical systems to charge at home safely. San Diego Electric installs licensed, permitted Level 2 EV chargers and Tesla Wall Connectors for every major EV brand, including Tesla, Rivian, Ford, Chevrolet, Hyundai, BMW and Mercedes EQ. Our C-10 electricians handle the full installation from load calculation and panel assessment through to the final SDG&E inspection, so your charger is ready the day you plug in.
Most San Diego homes built before 2010 need a dedicated 40- or 60-amp circuit and, frequently, a service upgrade to 200 amps before a Level 2 charger can be added safely. We perform a complimentary panel inspection, calculate your available capacity against California Title 24 and NEC 2023 requirements, and give you a flat-rate quote before any work begins. If a panel upgrade is required, we pull the permit with the City of San Diego or your local jurisdiction, install a modern Square D or Siemens panel with a dedicated EV breaker, label every circuit, and schedule the inspection so the work passes the first time.
For San Diego businesses, we install commercial Level 2 and DC fast charging stations for offices, multifamily properties, hotels and retail centers. We coordinate with SDG&E's Power Your Drive program, manage trenching and conduit runs, specify networked chargers from ChargePoint, Tesla, Blink and EVgo, and deliver turnkey installations that qualify for California EV charging rebates and federal tax incentives. Every commercial charger we install is load-balanced across your existing service and documented for future expansion.
Every EV charger installation by San Diego Electric is performed by licensed electricians — never subcontracted — and backed by our workmanship warranty and full liability insurance. Whether you drive a Model 3 in Pacific Beach or manage a fleet of Rivian vans in Sorrento Valley, we deliver clean, code-compliant charging infrastructure that protects your home, your vehicle and your family.
