Case Study: Southport EV-Charger & Panel Upgrade

When the Andersons bought an electric vehicle, their 100-amp service wasn’t up to the task. Our crew upgraded them to a 200-amp Square D QO load center, pulled the Fairfield Building Department permit, and installed a Tesla Wall Connector. Read our EV charger cost breakdown for details.

Fairfield Permits, Inspections & Utility Coordination—Handled for You

Electrical projects in Fairfield fall under City of Fairfield Building Department jurisdiction and must comply with the latest Connecticut Building Codes. Homeowners often discover they need multiple sign-offs:

  1. Electrical Permit—filed by a licensed E-1 or E-2 contractor.
  2. Rough and Final Inspections—scheduled with the town inspector.
  3. Eversource Service Order—required for panel upgrades or service-mast relocation.

PowerPlus files every document electronically, pays the permit fees, and submits load calculations to Eversource on your behalf. On inspection day, our electrician meets the inspector, explains the work, and addresses any notes immediately—so your project closes without costly delays.

Tip: Planning a July pool installation in Southport? Get on our schedule early. Summer inspection slots book quickly, and service-mast upgrades can add 7–10 days to the timeline.
