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.

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 used in home-based businesses or for home hobbyists 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Circuit panels may need an upgrade because they're outdated, don't have enough circuits, or you've done an addition or added additional features to your home that require more circuits.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 residential buildings.
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 its 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 - our team of licensed electricians near you can help you make the need a reality!

We began troubleshooting and found that there was only 30 V going to the receptacles which indicated there was a lost neutral. After going through, we found that the receptacle next to the window in the back right office had poor connections which caused the lost neutral.
