From the newer homes in Falcon Pointe or Blackhawk to the established streets around Old Town Pflugerville or Heatherwilde, a Level 2 charger on its own dedicated circuit — sized to your panel and built to code, with one clear price agreed before we begin.
The car is rarely the fire risk — the connection is. A growing share of home-charging fires start at the outlet or breaker: loose terminals, the wrong wire gauge, a NEMA 14-50 plug put in by someone without EV experience. Hours of continuous load bake the insulation brittle and wear the breaker out early, so it trips before its time. Independent testing has clocked improperly installed chargers at 350°F before they caught fire.
Plenty of Austin homes — especially those built before the mid-1980s — run a panel already near full. Add 40 to 60 amps for a charger and you can push it past what it can safely carry. We run a load calculation first and tell you straight: charger only, charger with Static Power Management, or charger plus a panel upgrade.
An EV circuit needs the right wire gauge and breaker, proper grounding, weather-rated parts outdoors, and a permit and inspection where your city requires it. Skip those and a faulty connection can surge straight into your EV and fry its onboard charger — a repair north of $10,000 your dealer won’t cover. We build it to NEC code, the first time.
Pflugerville has more people working in computers and math than almost anywhere in the country — and the home-charging know-how to match. So the question usually isn’t whether you want a proper Level 2 charger. It’s whether the circuit behind it is ready for a car that draws steadily, for hours, every night. That part is ours to get right.
This city is really two housing stories, and the kindest install respects which one is yours. The newer master-planned neighborhoods off SH 130 and Kelly Lane — Falcon Pointe, Blackhawk, Avalon, and Highland Park — were built this century with roomy 200-amp panels and garages that suit a charger beautifully; most are a clean, same-day install. The established side — the established homes around Old Town Pflugerville, Heatherwilde, and the established streets around Lake Pflugerville — often runs a panel that’s already doing a lot of good work. We simply look first, and tell you what we find.
A microwave pulls hard for a minute. An electric car draws its full rate for six, eight, ten hours at a stretch — a steady, demanding load the wiring carries all night long. Sized and connected properly, that’s effortless, and you never think about it again. Our work is to size the dedicated circuit for the car in your driveway today and the one you might choose next, so the charger fades quietly into your routine and stays that way for years.
An older Pflugerville panel near capacity doesn’t mean a panel upgrade is your only road. Certified-installer Static Power Management can hold the charger comfortably below your panel’s safe ceiling, paired with a right-sized breaker — often enough to add charging without touching the service at all. When an upgrade truly is the better choice, you’ll see that option laid out plainly beside the one that avoids it, and you decide with the whole picture in front of you.
Because Pflugerville sits in Oncor territory, you can choose your own electricity provider — and that opens a door many cities nearby don’t have. If you drive a Tesla, you can enroll with Tesla Electric and add unlimited home charging for about $15 a month per vehicle, drawn from 100% Texas-generated renewable energy. It’s their plan, not ours — but we make sure the charger we install is wired to take full advantage of it from the first night.
Some installs call for a permit and an inspection; many don’t. If and when yours does, we take care of the paperwork and the scheduling, and we coordinate anything your utility needs — so the only thing you do is park and plug in. You won’t be handed a phone number or a form.
We start with a careful look: your panel’s capacity, the run to where you park, and the charger you have in mind. Then we hand you a single, written price — agreed before any work starts, with nothing discovered halfway through. If financing would make it easier, we can walk you through it, gently and only if you ask.
Some installers mount the charger, hand you the bill, and leave you to chase the permit and inspection yourself. Ours doesn’t — one price, one crew, one company that owns the whole job from the load calculation to the final inspection.
On a fuller Old Town Pflugerville or Heatherwilde panel, certified-installer software keeps the charger comfortably below your panel’s safe ceiling, paired with a right-sized breaker — so you can often add charging with no panel upgrade at all.
Your install is backed up to five years, labor and all, and the charger keeps its own manufacturer’s warranty on top. If anything we wired ever needs a second look, we come back — no fine print.
Sized and mounted for the car you drive now and the one you might choose next — a higher charge rate, a second vehicle, a future battery. We leave headroom so a later change isn’t a teardown.
We don’t leave at ‘it powers on.’ We test the charger under real load, get its app and Wi-Fi talking, and walk you through schedules and charge limits before we go.
If your project calls for a permit and inspection, we look after the paperwork and the scheduling, and coordinate anything your utility needs — quietly, as part of the job.
Tesla Wall Connector, ChargePoint, Wallbox, a hardwired unit or a NEMA 14-50 outlet — we install the charger that suits your car and your garage, not whatever happens to be on the shelf.

Being invited into your home is a privilege we never take for granted. Every story below comes straight from a Greater Austin homeowner we’ve served — with the work we did and the DC Electric crew who showed up.
“Nick came out for the quote — kind and thorough, and helped me think through all the work. Install day was flawless: the crew put in a car charger, 16 can lights, and two new circuits, and insisted on making it perfect. They are not the cheapest electricians in town, but you absolutely get what you pay for.”

“Andrew and Jonathan did an amazing job installing our EV charger. They walked us through the setup, stayed true to the quote, and left the garage cleaner than they found it.”
“Outstanding work installing my Tesla Wall Connector! Dani, Jose, and Lovell were on time, communicated every step clearly, and did an exceptional, super clean job.”
“I purchased a 1951 home with multiple electrical issues on the inspection. Every deficiency was addressed — and they told me which components did not need updating. A storm rolled in while I was away and the techs closed all my windows. I came home to a dry house.”
“Dani explained the problem and the exact cost of each item before we started, the crew was on task all day, and we catch ourselves going out and looking at the new panel like it’s a work of art — because it is!”
“They showed up right on time and worked nonstop in the heat, provided a generator so we had power while they worked, answered every question, explained everything, and cleaned up before leaving. I’ll definitely use them again.”
“Danny listened to our goals and built a solution that future-proofs our 45-year-old home. The crew was thorough and professional, and Nicole handled all the city permits and inspections for a completely seamless experience.”
“We got multiple bids to restore power to our garage unit, and the team at DC were the easy choice. Scheduling was easy, communication was consistent, and most importantly, they took care of everything thoroughly — complete on time, with no surprises.”
“Fast, efficient, clean, and extremely knowledgeable about the hardware and setup. Ed and the crew walked me through the whole system and I’ve spent hours playing with my new SPAN setup!”
