Hardwired or NEMA 14-50 — which should I pick?

Hardwired. It supports 48A continuous charging (vs 32A for a plug), eliminates plug heat damage, and looks cleaner. Plugs make sense only if you may move the charger.

Do I need a panel upgrade for an EV?

Often, no — if your panel has headroom. We run a written load calc before quoting. If you need an upgrade, we can do both in one visit.

How long does an install take?

3–5 hours for a typical garage. Long conduit runs or finished-wall fishes add time but we'll quote it upfront.

Can you install two chargers for a two-EV household?

Yes — typically with a load-management system like Wallbox Pulsar Plus or Tesla Gateway 3 so both cars charge overnight without upgrading the service.

A proper EV install is more than mounting a charger. We size the load against your panel, run conduit you can't see, terminate to torque spec, and pull the city permit. The result: full-speed charging at home, every night, without tripping breakers or voiding your auto warranty.
