We label circuits, tighten terminations to torque requirements, and test grounding and bonding, providing a safe, compliant upgrade.
EV Charging Station Installation and Circuit Planning
Start by confirming your EV charger's load requirements and how they impact your home's demand profile. Then, you assess panel capacity and breaker space to confirm a dedicated circuit meets Code without overloading the system. In the final step, you secure required permits and confirm available Toronto and Ontario rebates before installation to ensure compliance and minimize expenses.
Load Evaluation Basics
Why initiate an EV charger project without first knowing if your service can handle it? Start with a clear load assessment. Document all major appliances, HVAC, water heating, lighting, and typical plug loads. Document nameplate ratings, breaker sizes, and expected run times. Apply demand diversity to reflect realistic, non-simultaneous usage, then calculate peak and typical loads in amps at 240V and 120V. Assess circuit balancing across phases to preserve currents even, reduce neutral stress, and minimize voltage drop.
Assess the EV charger's continuous load at 125% of its specification per code. Establish when charging will take place and how it overlaps with heating, cooking, and laundry. Plan for future additions. Document findings, assumptions, and safety margins. If your results come close to limits, change schedules or lower charger capacity before moving forward.
Electrical Panel Capacity Assessments
Although your load assessment establishes demand, ensure the panel can safely deliver it. First confirm the main breaker rating and the panel's busbar ampacity; your EV circuit cannot go beyond these limits. Inspect available breaker spaces and proper breaker spacing to avoid overheating and nuisance trips. Assess actual load with a clamp meter under typical household conditions, then compare to calculated demand to confirm headroom.
Check conductor sizes, terminations, and torque values. Check for heat discoloration, corrosion, or brittle insulation-evidence that the panel's service life is nearing end. Confirm that grounding and bonding remain intact, and that AFCI/GFCI requirements don't exceed capacity. If space or capacity constraints exist, consider a subpanel or a service upgrade. Log results before deciding on an EV charger circuit size and placement.
Permitting and Rebates
Before buying an EV charger or running wire, verify local permitting requirements and rebate eligibility to avoid rework and delays. Toronto and most GTA municipalities mandate an electrical permit for new circuits, load management devices, and service upgrades. Ask your electrician to submit drawings, specify breaker size, wire gauge, GFCI specifications, and mounting location to streamline approval.
Check permit timelines early; some jurisdictions approve simple residential EV circuits in several days, while service upgrades might need weeks. Schedule inspections prior to closing walls or pouring concrete. Keep receipts, model numbers, photos, and inspection reports to confirm rebate eligibility.
Review utility, municipal, federal, and provincial incentives. Many programs necessitate licensed installation, ESA inspection, and approved equipment lists. Plan your purchase to align with funding windows and priority-based programs.

We add energy‑saving controls-occupancy sensors, timers, and dimmers-to lower consumption while sustaining compliant, reliable operation.
Intelligent Lighting Designs
Although aesthetics are significant, smart lighting begins with a compliant and safe layout that supplies the right light in the appropriate locations and cuts energy waste. You'll get predictable results when circuits, controls, and loads are accurately dimensioned, shielded with AFCI/GFCI when necessary, and marked for servicing. Start with ambient zoning to distinguish general, task, and accent illumination, then establish dedicated control layers for safety and clarity.
Position switches and dimmers at reachable heights, eliminate overloaded boxes, and confirm neutral availability for smart controls. Use occupancy sensors to automate occupancy and daylight response, but calibrate time intervals and sensitivity to avoid nuisance trips. Arrange fixtures by function, not just room, to decrease overlighting. Document wiring paths, panel schedules, and control scenes so subsequent service remains safe and simple.
LED Retrofit Design
Prior to replacing lamps, define the retrofit's targets: cut energy, boost light quality, curb maintenance, and meet code. Start with a site audit: document fixture types, voltage, wiring condition, and ceiling heights. Check fixture compatibility for each space, including thermal limits, socket type, ballast or driver requirements, and emergency egress needs. Execute lumen budgeting by area: calculate target illuminance, account for room reflectance, spacing, and uniformity, then select LED packages that address tasks without glare.
Confirm color quality and consistency: select appropriate CCT per area and specify CRI/R9 where color is important. Verify electrical loading, inrush current, and circuit capacity. Organize safe installation sequencing, lockout/tagout, and waste handling for legacy lamps. Develop photometric layouts and cut-sheets. Document warranties and maintenance intervals to ensure long-term performance.
Energy-Saving Management Systems
Even though high-efficiency LEDs lower load, controls provide the bigger savings by making certain light is on only when and where needed. You'll decrease kWh and prolong lamp life by pairing fixtures with smart scheduling, occupancy sensors, and daylight harvesting that reduces or shuts off lights near windows.
