PREPARING FOR YOur ev charger installation
Before installing an EV charger, a few key steps ensure a smooth, safe, and code-compliant setup. Proper preparation can save time, prevent issues, and make sure your EV charges reliably.
Education
Electrical load calculation
The first step is having Boda Electric complete a load calculation on the home's electrical system to determine if your current panel can handle the added demand of a level 2 charger.

Select the most convenient location for your new charger before our arrival. We will review the site and let you know what is needed to bring any new circuitry to that location.
Permits and Inspections
At Boda Electric, we install code-compliant systems and handle projects like these with all necessary permits and inspections. We make the process easy and convenient by managing the permit and inspection process with your local municipality.
