Electric Car Chargers in Columbia
You may be investigating "What do I need to install to charge my Tesla (or another electric vehicle) at home?" - and we can help! To charge your electric vehicle at home, you'll need a level 2 charging station, a dedicated circuit for the charging station with the correct amperage and voltage to accommodate your Level 2 Charging Station, you'll need a 240V electrical outlet, either a NEMA 14-50 or a 6-50, depending on your charging station's requirements, and most likely a permit from your town and/or county - depending upon local requirements. Our team at Haas and Sons can help you gather the correct unit, install the dedicated circuit where its convenient for you to charge your car, and provide information for obtaining your permit. We've been handling a lot of electric car charger installations near Columbia - so we're well-versed in the requirements and safe installation of your charger.
Circuit Panel Upgrade or Heavy Up Additions
A heavy-up circuit is a type of electrical circuit that is designed to handle a higher electrical load than a standard electrical circuit. This is typically achieved by increasing the size of the conductors and equipment used in the circuit, such as the wires, switches, and breakers. Heavy-up circuits are often used in commercial settings, or occasionally home-based businesses where there is a need for a large amount of electrical power to support machinery, lighting, or other high-demand equipment. The term "heavy-up" refers to the process of upgrading an existing electrical circuit to handle a higher electrical load.
Circuit panels may need an upgrade because they're outdated, don't have enough circuits, or you've done an addition or added additional features to your home that require more circuits. Installing a pool or hot tub are just 2 examples of upgrades that might require an update to your circuit panel. We also install circuit panels for new construction of Additional Dwelling Units (ADUs) and other buildings both residential and commercial.
Dedicated circuits
There are other reasons to have a dedicated circuit besides the electric car charger mentioned above. You may be installing a pool or hot tub that requires it's own circuit for safety or code requirements. You may be running power down to your outbuildings or adding air conditioning or an electric stove to your home where you had none previously. There are a variety of reasons you may need a dedicated circuit - we can help you make the need a reality!
A basic wiring and electrical repairs will run from $200 for a basic repair to over $800 for more complex issues and installations. Each company may have a different way of charging to come out. Some may have a 1 or 2-hour minimum, some may have a call-out charge plus an hourly rate, then charge inflated material costs while others like us have a service charge and a flat rate (aka fixed price repair cost). We prefer this method as it is never based on the electrician’s speed or efficiency and provides constant pricing for you. You will know the exact cost prior to doing the work with no surprises at the end.
It is recommended to replace and or upgrade the electrical system every 30 years. Electrical systems are the least serviced system in the entire home and often have underlying issues that need to be addressed but never get attention until there is a problem. Parts of the system can rot, corrode, wear out, and stop working properly under manufacturer specs, and changes in the electrical code provide a much safer electrical system for your home.
Here in Maryland upgrading your electrical system often runs from $2000 to $5000. Depending on the code requirements, difficulty, warranty, and bells and whistles you purchase will greatly affect this cost.
