Commercial EV Charging Station Installs⚡️ My Dad shows Step-by-Step how to do it, Thoughts?

What happens here

Garrett explains the electrical infrastructure for the installation. The power source originates from a transformer located in a fenced area nearby. This power runs underground to the main electrical gear in the building's basement. From there, new circuits will be run to power the EV chargers. The plan includes installing three chargers on one side of the parking lot and three on the other, totaling six charging ports. He reiterates the difficulty and extensive labor involved in securing and executing such large-scale commercial projects, noting that they are not always highly profitable but this one is due to it being a long-standing customer relationship.

Goal: Explain the power routing and the total number of chargers to be installed.

Tools and materials

  • Main Electrical Gear Building-specific — Central distribution panel for electricity within the building, connected to the transformer
  • Transformer Utility-grade — Primary power source for the EV charging stations

What they say

But basically under here is the transformer in that little fenced in area right there. And the power goes underneath and goes into the main gear into the basement. And then we're going to come out and we're going to be putting in uh three chargers on this side and three chargers on that side. Now, the only reason I'm even doing this is because I it's a long-standing customer of mine. These are very difficult jobs to land. There's a lot of leg work involved, a lot of meetings involved, and sometimes it's not as profitable, but this job is profitable and uh I've been working on this for probably a year. So, be careful when you get the calls for places like this. Contact me if you get one of these calls and I'll
