Serving San Francisco, CA
Looking for a licensed, Tesla-certified electrician in San Francisco? Charge Home Solutions covers Level 2 EV charger installation, Tesla Powerwall battery backup, electrical panel upgrades, and full residential electrical service. San Francisco's older homes often need panel upgrades and rewiring to support EV charging and modern loads.
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 San Francisco homes full of sensitive electronics, and they are inexpensive insurance against storm-driven spikes. Older San Francisco homes often need rewiring or a service upgrade to handle modern loads safely, while new builds are wired EV-ready from the start.
Because we are Tesla Energy Certified, San Francisco 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 San Francisco 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 San Francisco 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 San Francisco 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 San Francisco 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 San Francisco 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 San Francisco County permit is pulled before we start, and inspection is coordinated after. Most single-service jobs finish in one visit.
