200A Panel & EV Charger — Redwood City
A Redwood City 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

Redwood City Electrical Questions
How quickly can Fox Electric get to Redwood City?
We're based in neighboring San Carlos — our team typically reaches any Redwood City location within 8-10 minutes. For emergencies, we're often there in under 15 minutes.
Do you serve Redwood Shores?
Yes — we serve Redwood Shores and all Redwood City neighborhoods. Redwood Shores condos and townhomes often need dedicated circuits for home offices, EV chargers in garages, and smart lighting upgrades.

Absolutely. Woodside Plaza's 1950s-60s homes frequently have original wiring, undersized panels, and lack GFCI protection. We do complete rewiring with minimal disruption.
Does Redwood City require permits for electrical work?
Yes — the City of Redwood City requires permits for panel upgrades, new circuits, and rewiring. As a local contractor, we know Redwood City's permitting process well and handle everything for you.
