Serving Auburn, CA
Charge Home Solutions brings Level 2 EV charger installation, Tesla Powerwall battery backup, electrical panel upgrades, and full residential electrical service to Auburn, in Placer County, and the neighborhoods around it. As a Placer County city of about 14,000, Auburn pairs everyday electrical repairs with rising demand for EV charging and Tesla Powerwall backup.
PSPS public-safety shutoffs and wildfire-season outages make battery backup especially valuable in California. At the same time, high electricity rates and NEM 3.0 make pairing solar with a battery one of the smartest upgrades, so capacity and efficiency matter on every job.
Surge protection and grounding upgrades quietly protect Auburn homes full of sensitive electronics, and they are inexpensive insurance against storm-driven spikes. EV-ready pre-wiring is the smart move for Auburn homeowners planning ahead, we run the conduit and capacity now so your future charger is a simple plug-in later.
Because we are Tesla Energy Certified, Auburn Wall Connector and Powerwall installs are done to manufacturer spec and stay under warranty. We work to Title 24 and PG&E, SCE, and SDG&E requirements. We pull the permit, coordinate inspection, and hand you the documentation.
Most Auburn homes are served by PG&E / SCE / SDG&E, and we handle the interconnection and permitting that come with adding an EV charger or battery on that system. SMUD & PG&E charger rebates can offset part of the cost, and we identify what applies at your address during the free estimate.
Panel work is where every electrification project starts or stalls. Our Auburn electricians run a real load calculation before recommending anything: many homes have more spare capacity than owners expect, and smart load management often avoids a $1,500–$4,000 upgrade entirely. When the upgrade is genuinely needed, it's one day of work and decades of headroom.
Older housing stock brings specific electrical needs: fuse boxes and 60–100A services that predate modern loads, aluminum branch wiring from the late 1960s, and panels from brands like Federal Pacific and Zinsco with documented failure histories. We identify these during any Auburn assessment and give you straight answers, repair, remediate, or replace, with real prices for each.
Standby generators remain the answer for extended outages: an automatic transfer switch starts the generator seconds after the grid fails and your Auburn home keeps running indefinitely on fuel. Sizing matters, essentials-only backup needs far less than whole-home with A/C, and our free assessment includes the load audit that gets it right.
Here's what working with us in Auburn looks like. First, a licensed electrician visits your home for a free assessment, checking the panel, measuring runs, and running the load calculation. You get a fixed, written quote on the spot or the same day. Work is scheduled at your convenience, the Placer County permit is pulled before we start, and inspection is coordinated after. Most single-service jobs finish in one visit.
