Does Huntington Beach require a permit for EV charger installation?

Yes. The City of Huntington Beach requires an electrical permit for all new 240V circuits including EV chargers. Wilson Electric pulls this permit and handles all inspections included in our installation service.

What EV chargers does Wilson Electric install in Huntington Beach?

We install Tesla Wall Connector, ChargePoint Home Flex, Enel X JuiceBox 40, Clipper Creek HCS series, and NEMA 14-50 outlets compatible with all EV brands.

My Huntington Beach home was built in the 1970s. Will I need a panel upgrade?

Possibly. Many 1960s–1980s Huntington Beach homes have 100-amp panels that are at or near capacity. Wilson Electric evaluates your panel for free and provides upfront pricing for any needed 200-amp upgrade.

How fast does a Level 2 charger charge compared to a standard outlet?

A standard 120V outlet adds approximately 4–5 miles of range per hour. A Level 2 240V charger adds 25–44 miles per hour depending on the unit — roughly 5–8x faster.
