What happens here

Begin by identifying the main electrical service panel. Before proceeding, it is absolutely critical to locate and shut off the main breaker to de-energize the entire panel. Once safe, identify an available space in the panel for a new double-pole circuit breaker. Install a new 60-amp double-pole circuit breaker into the designated slot on the panel's bus bar. Ensure it is firmly seated and properly connected. Refer to the panel's legend or diagram to mark the new breaker as 'EV Charger'.

Goal: Integrate the EV charger circuit into the main electrical panel

Tools and materials

  • 60-Amp Double-Pole Circuit Breaker — To provide overcurrent protection for the EV charger circuit
  • Headlamp or Work Light — To illuminate the working area inside the dark panel
  • Main Electrical Panel HomeLine — The central distribution point for household electricity where the new breaker will be installed
  • Screwdriver Set — For removing the panel cover and tightening terminal screws
  • Voltage Tester — To verify that the circuit is de-energized before beginning work
