    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.

    EV Charger Installation in Folsom

    Under the Sun Solar & Electric installs Level 2 EV chargers throughout Folsom, from Tesla Wall Connectors to ChargePoint and Wallbox. We pull City of Folsom permits, run PG&E-territory load calculations, and integrate charging with your existing solar and battery. C-10 licensed and fully insured. Free estimates – call 916-899-3062.

    Plenty of Folsom garages already sit under a roof full of solar, which makes the next move obvious: charge the car off your own production instead of PG&E’s peak rates. Getting there takes a dedicated 240V circuit sized and placed to work with your system rather than against it. That intersection of solar, storage, and EV is exactly where we do our sharpest work.

    Call now: 916-899-3062 | Get a Free EV Charger Estimate

    Empire Ranch and Folsom Ranch homes tend to be larger, with the panel and the garage often at opposite ends, so the length of the circuit run is frequently what drives the price. We measure it and quote it honestly up front, and a single free load check tells you whether your service is ready or needs a little headroom first.

    • C-10 Licensed Electrical Contractor – fully insured, verify us at cslb.ca.gov
    • Permits pulled with the City of Folsom building department
    • Solar, battery, and EV integrated by one team – charge off your own power
    • PG&E load calculations and EV rate guidance in every quote
    • Free, no-obligation estimates with transparent, up-front pricing

    Charging That Works With Your Home, Not Against It

    A good Level 2 install is a sized circuit, a clean panel connection, and a permit that stands up at resale – and in Folsom it often means fitting the charger around solar and battery that are already there. You can see the full scope on our EV charger installation page, or browse everything we do locally on the Folsom electrician hub.

    Level 2 Chargers Sized for Larger Folsom Homes

    A Level 2 charger runs on 240V and adds five to seven times the range per hour of a standard outlet, so most EVs are full by morning. In bigger Empire Ranch and Folsom Ranch floor plans the tricky part is the distance from panel to garage bay, which we route cleanly in conduit and price by the actual run. You get a tidy install that charges fast and looks like it belongs.

    Tesla Wall Connector and Every Other Brand

    We install Tesla Wall Connectors alongside ChargePoint, Wallbox, Emporia, and other universal chargers, hardwired or on a NEMA 14-50 outlet depending on your unit and your plans. If you are still deciding, we will give you a straight recommendation based on your driving and your panel instead of pushing the most expensive box on the shelf. Call 916-899-3062 to compare options.

    Charging That Runs on Your Solar and Battery

    Folsom has one of the higher solar adoption rates in the region, and under NEM 3.0 the smart play is using more of your own power rather than exporting it cheaply. We tie your charger into an existing solar and battery storage setup so the car sips from the panels and the battery during peak hours. Because we are electricians who also do solar, that integration is done right, not bolted on.

    Panel Headroom and Upgrades When You Need Them

    Most newer Folsom homes carry 200 amp service, which usually handles a Level 2 charger, but larger homes running AC, a pool pump, and a battery can get tight. We calculate the real load, and if you need more room we fold the panel upgrade into the same permitted project so you are not juggling two jobs.

    The Difference an Electrician-Led Install Makes

    • Solar and EV from the same team. Your charger, panels, and battery are engineered to work together, which matters more in a high-solar city like Folsom than almost anywhere else.
    • Backup power in mind. With PSPS shutoffs and wildfire risk on the east side of town, we can set up charging to keep working off battery when the grid does not.
    • One contractor, one permit. Panel work, charger, and any storage all run through a single C-10 license and a single City of Folsom permit.
    • No band-aid repairs or upsells. If your panel has room, we say so. If it does not, we show you the load math instead of padding the bill.
    • A finish that fits the house. Clean conduit, labeled breakers, and a spotless garage – the standard higher-end Folsom homes expect.

    Neighborhoods We Cover in Folsom

    We install EV chargers across Folsom, from Empire Ranch and Folsom Ranch to Broadstone, Willow Creek, Natoma Station, and the Historic District, throughout ZIP code 95630. Drivers in nearby PG&E communities can also see our Roseville EV charger page for the same service.


    One Call Gets You a Straight Answer

    No pressure and no sales script – just a free load check, an honest recommendation, and a price you can trust. When you are ready to charge at home off your own power, we will make it clean, permitted, and built to last. Call 916-899-3062 or request your free estimate.

    EV charger installation

    Most Folsom Level 2 installs run about $1,000 to $2,500 all in, covering the dedicated circuit, mounting, permit, and testing. The single biggest variable here is run length, since larger Empire Ranch and Folsom Ranch homes often put the panel far from the garage. If a panel upgrade is needed, plan for roughly $2,800 to $4,500 combined. You get a firm number after a free load check.

    Folsom is in PG&E territory, not SMUD, so the incentives differ from neighboring Sacramento. PG&E offers EV-friendly time-of-use rate plans and periodic charging incentives, and a federal tax credit can cover 30 percent of installation up to $1,000. Programs change often, so we confirm what is live and help you set up the right EV rate. Call 916-899-3062 to review your options.

    Yes. A new 240V EV circuit requires an electrical permit from the City of Folsom, and an unpermitted install can create headaches at resale or with your insurer. We pull the permit and schedule the inspection as part of the job, so your charger is documented and fully code-compliant.

    Yes, and in Folsom it is often the whole point. We position and program the charger to draw from your solar during the day and from a battery during peak evening hours, which under NEM 3.0 saves far more than exporting excess power. Because we install solar and storage too, the charger is integrated with your system instead of fighting it.

    Only if it is tied to battery backup. Given Folsom's wildfire-season PSPS shutoffs, we can configure charging to run off a home battery when the grid goes down, so an outage does not leave you stranded. Ask us how to set it up - call 916-899-3062 or request a free estimate.
