    I hired Under the Sun Solar and Electric to upgrade my subpanel per the new California code. It was a quick and easy process. They were very easy to communicate with throughout, from the scheduling the install, passing inspection, to the documentation they could provide so that I could send it off to my HOA. The install was very quick and neat, and they made sure to leave everything spotless after themselves.

    We recently had our old panel replaced and the whole experience was great from start to finish. The crew was easy to work with, answered all of our questions, and kept everything neat and organized throughout the install. The new panel looks amazing and works perfectly. Would absolutely recommend them to anyone needing a panel upgrade.

    I'd highly recommend Under The Sun for your solar needs. I recently had 10 additional panels added to boost the production of my existing system. Mark and Paul were very responsive and easy to work with. They also worked with me to ensure a clean installation making sure no ugly conduit was exposed and completed the entire install process in a single day. It’s rare to find contractors that are this professional and prompt.

    Residential EV Charger Installation Services

    Electric vehicle ownership is growing throughout Citrus Heights, but many homes were built long before EV charging was a consideration. Installing an EV charger isn’t just about convenience—it requires proper electrical capacity, load calculations, and compliance with local code to ensure long-term safety and reliability.

    We specialize in Level 2 EV charger installations for single-family homes and residential garages. Our focus is on safe, durable installations that support daily charging without overloading your electrical system.

    Our EV charger installation services include:

    • Level 2 EV charger installation (garage or exterior)
    • Dedicated 240-volt circuit installation
    • Hardwired and plug-in charger setups
    • Electrical load calculations
    • Breaker and circuit sizing
    • Conduit and wiring installation
    • Permit and inspection coordination
    • Charger replacement or relocation

    All installations are completed to current California electrical code and manufacturer specifications.


    EV Charging Needs in Citrus Heights Homes

    Many homes in Citrus Heights were built decades before electric vehicles became common. As a result, it’s common to see:

    • Garages without dedicated 240-volt circuits
    • Limited spare capacity in the main electrical panel
    • Shared circuits that cannot support EV charging safely

    A properly installed EV charger allows homeowners to charge overnight, avoid reliance on public chargers, and reduce wear on household electrical components.


    Do You Need an Electrical Panel Upgrade for an EV Charger?

    Not every EV charger installation requires a panel upgrade, but some do.

    A panel upgrade may be recommended if:

    • Your home has a 100-amp electrical service
    • Multiple high-load appliances already operate at the same time
    • Breakers trip during charging
    • You plan to add solar or a second EV

    When additional capacity is required, we also provide electrical panel upgrades in Citrus Heights to ensure EV chargers, appliances, and future upgrades operate safely together.

    Permits & Inspections in Citrus Heights

    EV charger installations require permits and inspections to ensure safety and compliance.
    We manage the entire process, including:

    • Permit applications
    • Inspector coordination
    • Final inspection approval

    This ensures your installation is compliant, insurable, and built to last.
