ELR ELECTRIC INC installs Level 2 EV chargers in Lake Asbury, where new subdivisions near the First Coast Expressway sit next to older lakefront and larger-lot homes. In a new build the job is often a single circuit to the garage; on an older property off Lake Asbury Drive or Henley Road it can mean a capacity check and a longer run. We handle both, and test every charger before we leave. Learn more about our EV charger installation service.
Every EV charger is a continuous load under the National Electrical Code, so the circuit has to be sized for hours of steady current. Newer Lake Asbury homes usually have panel room and sometimes a prewired spot from the builder. Older lake homes are more likely to have a smaller service or a garage set apart from the house. We plan the install around what your property actually has.
These are the situations we run into most around the lake.
Two cars can mean two chargers or a load management setup that shares capacity. We size it so both vehicles charge without overloading the panel.
No garage is not a problem. An outdoor-rated charger on an exterior wall near the driveway works well with weather-rated fittings and a smart mounting spot.
If a breaker trips partway through a charge, the circuit is too small or shared with other loads. A dedicated circuit sized for the charger fixes it.
A plug or outlet that feels warm during charging points to a loose connection or an outlet that isn’t rated for the load. It should be checked and replaced with a proper setup.
Some newer homes come with conduit, an empty breaker space or a capped circuit for a future charger. We check what is actually there, confirm it is sized correctly, and finish the install.
We are a licensed Clay County electrician based just up the road in Green Cove Springs. We work on both new builds and older lake properties, so we know what to look for in each.
Our licensed electricians handle the whole job: load calculation, breaker, wiring and charger mounting.
We build the circuit for a continuous load, which is how the National Electrical Code treats EV charging.
Properly rated wire, breakers and weather-rated fittings that hold up to Florida heat and humidity.
No surprises. We explain what the install needs and put it in writing before work starts.
We show up when we say, keep the work area clean and walk you through the charger before we go.
Inspection
We check your panel, anything the builder already installed, and the route to where you park.
We explain your options in plain terms, from a 240V outlet to a hardwired charger, and put the recommendation in writing.
Precision Installation
Breaker, wiring and charger go in to code, with the work kept tidy in the garage or on the exterior wall.
Testing & Quality Check
We power up the circuit, check every connection and confirm the charger is ready for your vehicle.
It can mean anything from a conduit run to a full 240V circuit. Some builders only leave a breaker space. We check what is in place, confirm it matches the charger you want, and complete the connection.
A new 240V circuit is electrical work that may need a permit and inspection depending on your city or county. We follow the requirements that apply to your address.
Most of the area is on Clay Electric Cooperative, with some addresses served by Florida Power & Light. Check your bill to confirm. The charger connects to your panel either way.
Yes. We install most hardwired and plug-in Level 2 chargers, including units bought online or through a dealer. Send us the model and we will confirm the circuit it needs.
