My Clovis panel is full. Can I still add an EV charger?

Yes, in most cases. A full 200 amp panel still has the capacity — it just has no open slots. We either use listed tandem breakers where the panel allows, or install a small garage sub panel from the main service. Both give the charger a dedicated circuit without a full service change.

Can you install two EV chargers at a Clovis home?

We do this regularly for two-EV households. The options are two separate circuits if the service supports it, or a load-sharing pair on one circuit where the two units split the available amperage automatically. Load sharing costs less and works well for overnight charging.

What charging speed will I actually get in Clovis?

A 40 amp Level 2 charger delivers roughly 30 to 35 miles of range per hour for most vehicles, so a typical daily commute replenishes in about an hour and a full charge happens overnight. Actual speed also depends on your vehicle's onboard charger, which we will check before sizing the circuit.

Do you pre-wire for EV charging during a Clovis remodel?

Yes, and it is much cheaper than retrofitting later. During a garage or addition remodel we run the conduit and conductors while the walls are open, land the breaker, and cap it off. When you buy the EV, the charger simply mounts and terminates.

Level 2 EV Charger Installation in Clovis

Clovis has one of the highest EV adoption rates in the Central Valley, and the neighborhoods where we install most — Harlan Ranch, Loma Vista, Deauville — share a common trait. The homes were built with a 200 amp service, which is plenty of capacity, but the panel arrived nearly full from the builder.

That means the constraint in Clovis is usually breaker space rather than amperage. When there is no room left, we either consolidate with a properly rated tandem arrangement where the panel permits it, or install a small garage sub panel fed from the main service. Either way the charger ends up on a dedicated circuit with nothing else sharing it.

We handle both new construction pre-wire and retrofits, install hardwired chargers and 14-50 receptacles, and pull the City of Clovis permit on every job.

Clovis Charging Scenarios We Install For

Home charging looks different depending on where the panel sits and how the garage is used. These are the Clovis setups we handle most.

Attached garage installations with the panel on an adjacent wall — the cleanest and fastest run
Two-vehicle households needing dual chargers or a load-sharing pair on one circuit
Panels with adequate amperage but zero free breaker spaces
Garage sub panels that serve the charger plus shop lighting and tool circuits
Driveway and carport mounting with weather rated enclosures and outdoor rated conduit
New construction and remodel pre-wiring so the circuit is in place before drywall
Upgrading from a 120 volt trickle charge setup to true Level 2 speeds

Our Clovis EV Charger Installation Process

We start with the panel schedule and a load calculation. In Clovis the service rating is rarely the problem, so most of the assessment is about space, breaker compatibility, and whether the existing bus can accept the breaker your charger requires.

Next we plan the mounting position around how you actually park. A charger placed for the cable to reach a Model Y's driver-side port will not reach an F-150 Lightning's front port from the same wall. We measure with your vehicle in the garage rather than assuming.

The install itself is conduit, conductors, breaker, charger, and commissioning. We set the charger's amperage to match the circuit, verify it under load, configure scheduled charging against off-peak rates, and complete the permit inspection.
