Permits in Los Altos go through the City of Los Altos Building Division, which typically processes EV charger applications in 5โ€“14 business days. We submit the load calculation per NEC 220.87, panel schedule, and one-line diagram with every application โ€” getting most installs approved on the first review. We schedule the final inspection on your behalf and you don't need to be home for it.

Los Altos sits in one of the highest EV-adoption markets in the country, with high EV penetration and growing fast. Upscale Silicon Valley suburb. High homeownership, predominantly SFH. Many mid-century homes with 100A panels needing upgrade. Apple and Google employees. Very low crime, strong community ties. Los Altos Hills (adjacent unincorporated) has even larger lots. The local utility, PG&E, offers EV-specific time-of-use rates that cut overnight charging costs roughly in half โ€” most ChargeWizards customers in Los Altos pay about $0.30โ€“$0.40/kWh during off-peak hours, or roughly $1.20 per gallon-equivalent for an EV.

ChargeWizards has installed ev charger for condos & hoas in homes across Los Altos โ€” from single-family homes with 100A panels to newer construction with 200A service. Every install includes a free pre-quote panel assessment (so we never quote a panel upgrade you don't need), the city permit, dedicated 240V circuit, mounting, commissioning with the charger app, and final inspection coordination. Our owner is on every job โ€” no subcontractors, no rotating crews. CSLB C-10 #1134931, fully licensed and insured.

Real install: A San Francisco condo customer needed a 130 ft conduit run from the building's electrical room to parking stall #85. ChargeWizards drafted the HOA application, shepherded it through the board, pulled the DBI permit, ran the conduit cleanly along the garage ceiling, installed a dedicated sub-meter, and secured a $5,000 utility rebate that offset most of the install cost. The unit owner now charges overnight at off-peak rates without sharing electricity with neighbors.
