Recently installed my Tesla Wall Connector. Excellent, professional service. Small family business staffed with licensed electricians. They accomodated my schedule and did first-class work. Highly recommend. Call them after you have gotten estimates from others. You’ll be glad you did.

Guillermo and Jason did an excellent job. On time, priced as quoted, and vacuumed the area where they cut into the walls. Thanks for professional service.

I needed to install a NEMA 14-50 outlet in my garage for charging an EV. They provided a quote, answered questions, and gave multiple options for placement. Super friendly, funny, and professional. A few hours later, I had my EV charging from the outlet.

After researching Tesla charger installers, I went with ABR. James was prompt in coming to give me an estimate. Andy and Jason texted me ahead of time that they were on their way. They were very professional, efficient, and clean. I would not hesitate to use ABR again in the future.

We worked with ABR on a recent job to install a Tesla home charger. They were great to work with and professional in every way. They went above and beyond to do the job. We are very happy with the results.

After consulting with Jason, he recommended a NEMA 14-50 instead of a Tesla Wall Charger, which saved me money. When an obstacle came up with my panel, their master electrician found a solution without needing a new fuse box. The install was clean and even included a wire hook for the cable. Best contractor experience ever!

EV Charger Code Updates – Collin County
New Electrical Code Requirements for EV Chargers in Collin County TX (2020 NEC Update)
If you’re installing an EV home charging station in McKinney, TX or the surrounding North Texas area, it’s important to understand the latest code updates. The 2020 National Electrical Code (NEC) introduced several new safety regulations specifically for electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE). One of the most significant changes is the mandatory inclusion of GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) protection on the branch circuit that supplies power to the EV charger.
This code update applies regardless of whether you’re using a Level 1 or Level 2 charger, and it is enforced in many local jurisdictions throughout Collin County and greater North Texas. Homeowners must ensure that their installation meets these standards to pass final inspection and avoid safety hazards.
