Belmont sits in the hills between San Carlos and San Mateo, known for its excellent schools, hillside views, and family-oriented neighborhoods. The city's homes — many built in the 1950s-60s — cling to hillsides with stunning Bay views but often face unique electrical challenges including long runs from the street, weather-related issues, and original undersized panels. Fox Electric is Belmont's nearest electrician, just minutes away from every neighborhood in this charming hill town.

200A Panel & EV Charger — Belmont
A Belmont homeowner wanted a Tesla Wall Connector, but the original 100A panel was already maxed out. We upgraded to a 200A Eaton service, coordinated the PG&E meter swap, pulled the city permit, and ran a dedicated 60A EV circuit — powered back up the same afternoon.
- Before: Maxed-out 100A panel, no room for an EV circuit
- After: 200A Eaton service + dedicated 60A Tesla Wall Connector
- Timeline: Permit pulled, installed, and re-energized in one day
- Outcome: EV-ready, with headroom for a future heat pump
