200A Electrical Panel Upgrade & Tesla Wall Connector Installation

For this project, the homeowner wanted to install a Tesla Wall Connector but had an older 100-amp electrical panel that was not capable of safely supporting an EV charger. To ensure safe charging and provide room for future electrical needs, we recommended a complete service upgrade.

Project Overview

After evaluating the existing electrical system, we upgraded the home’s main electrical service from 100 amps to 200 amps. A new Siemens Solar-Ready 200A panel with 24 spaces and 42 circuits was installed, providing the capacity needed for EV charging, future electrical expansion, and potential solar integration.

PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS

Upgraded to 200A Service

Upgraded the home's electrical service from 100 amps to 200 amps to safely support EV charging and future electrical demands.

Tesla Wall Connector Installation

Installed a dedicated Tesla Wall Connector with a 60-amp breaker, allowing charging at the maximum supported output of 48 amps.

Solar-Ready Electrical Panel

Installed a Siemens Solar-Ready 200A panel featuring 24 spaces and 42 circuits for future expansion.

Permits & Inspections Managed

Handled all utility coordination, permits, inspections, and approvals from start to finish.

The Existing 100A Panel Could Not Support EV Charging

The homeowner's existing electrical service was not designed to accommodate the continuous electrical demand of a Tesla Wall Connector. Adding an EV charger without upgrading the service could have resulted in safety concerns and inspection issues.

Limited Electrical Capacity

The existing 100A service provided insufficient capacity for the additional load required by an EV charger.

Future Expansion Constraints

The older panel offered limited space for adding new circuits and future electrical upgrades.

Safety Concerns

An aging electrical system may not reliably support modern high-demand electrical loads.

Inspection Challenges

Installing an EV charging circuit on the existing service would likely require upgrades to meet current requirements.

Complete Service Upgrade & EV Charger Installation

Our team performed a full electrical service upgrade and installed a dedicated EV charging circuit. We coordinated with the utility company, secured permits, completed the installation, and ensured all inspections were approved.

Siemens 200A Panel

Installed a Siemens Solar-Ready 200A panel with 24 spaces and 42 circuits to support current and future electrical needs.

Dedicated 60A EV Circuit

Installed #6 AWG THHN conductors with a dedicated 60-amp breaker to support the Tesla Wall Connector's maximum 48-amp charging output.

Surge Protection

Installed a surge protection device (SPD) to help protect sensitive electronics and EV charging equipment.

Full Permit Coordination

Managed utility meter requirements, city permits, inspections, and final approvals.

Scope of Work

Permits & Inspections

Our team handled the entire permitting process, including the utility meter spot request, city permits, inspections, and utility coordination. All required inspections were successfully completed and approved.

The Result

The homeowner now has a safe, code-compliant electrical system capable of supporting high-speed EV charging while providing additional capacity for future electrical upgrades and solar integration. The new 200A service delivers improved reliability, enhanced safety, and long-term flexibility.

The short answer: Should you hire BeniteX? Yes. They're knowledgeable, communicative, and fairly priced, and they handle permits and utility coordination for you. I trust reviews more when they include the good and the bad, so here's both. BeniteX replaced our 100A Zinsco panel, a known fire hazard, with a new 200A Siemens panel. Roman (the owner) came out on short notice to quote the job, walked us through the process, and answered all of our questions. The final price matched the quote with no surprise charges, and the work comes with a 4-year workmanship warranty. Alex kept us updated through the permit and SCE scheduling, Roman was here for both the utility and city inspections, and everything passed the first time. While he was here, Roman also fixed two dead outlets in our kitchen for a small extra charge. Cleanup was good overall, though the paint on the inside of our electrical closet frame doesn't quite match. The one real miss was the grounding. The plan called for two grounding rods along our front walkway. Because they'd be visible, we had to get HOA approval, which delayed the project by about two months. After Benitex drilled the rods into our foundation, one of their technicians found that the house already had a Ufer (concrete-encased) ground, and that's what was used in the end. The rods were never needed, so we had them cut down and buried. Checking for an existing ground up front, or asking us for the building plans, would have avoided both the drilling and the HOA wait. They took the grounding rods off the bill, but there wasn't much acknowledgment that drilling into our foundation without checking first was a mistake.

Roman was quick and efficient! He was helpful and knowledgeable. He replaced a dimmer switch that was old and not working right with our lights. I would definitely recommend this electrician!

All phases of the project were communicated and timely. The technician doing panel upgrade worked hard, efficient and during the heat. Stucco replacement and paint was applied and was very close to matching smooth surface,

I needed a 120-volt outlet installed as quickly as possible, and I’m glad I chose them! They were professional, honest, and friendly. The team arrived quickly, completed the installation efficiently, and didn’t add any unnecessary charges. Excellent service from start to finish. Highly recommend!

Roman was great! Was able to install my wall charger within 24 hours of reaching out to him. He was efficient, explained everything after installation, and the 2 year warranty they offer is perfect! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to get Tesla or EV chargers installed

I asked BeniteX to do a Ev charger installation and they did a great job! Great communication with Alex and transparent with pricing and the work being completed. Roman did a great job explaining electrical work and concepts that I have no knowledge about. He asked questions and confirmed all my decisions. I would recommend BeniteX to my family and friends and will definitely be reaching out to BeniteX for any electrical work I need in the future.

They were so great! They take the time to explain exactly what they’re doing, were flexible with my calendar, and handled all the permitting stuff, which would’ve been quite difficult for me to do on my own

Roman helped me troubleshoot a wiring issue that occurred during a power surge. He traced down the wire and found exactly what the problem was. He is diligent and professional at his trade; one of the very best. I am grateful to have encountered him and will refer him to anyone with electrical needs. Thank you, Roman!
