Owning an electric vehicle is even more enjoyable when you can charge it at home. Recently, ProLectric completed a Tesla Wall Connector installation at a beach house on Galveston West End. While every EV charger installation is unique, elevated coastal homes often require a little extra planning to achieve a clean, safe, and code-compliant result.
For this project, the home's electrical panel was located on the upper living level while the homeowner wanted the charger conveniently mounted in the garage underneath the house. Our electricians installed a new dedicated 50-amp circuit by routing the wiring down through the floor and into the garage, creating a professional installation with minimal visual impact.
Beach Homes Require Specialized Installation Techniques
Many homes along the Galveston coast are built on pilings or stilts to protect them from flooding. While this design works well for coastal living, it can make electrical upgrades more challenging than a typical single-story home.
Our experienced electricians carefully plan each installation to determine the safest and most efficient route for the new circuit while complying with the National Electrical Code and local building requirements. The result is an installation that looks great and provides years of dependable service.
Why Install a Level 2 Home EV Charger?
A dedicated Level 2 charging station offers significant advantages over charging from a standard household outlet:
- Much faster charging times
- Convenient overnight charging
- Dedicated circuit designed specifically for your vehicle
- Professional installation for safety and reliability
- Added convenience and value for your home
Whether you drive a Tesla or another electric vehicle, a professionally installed Level 2 charger makes daily charging simple and dependable.
