Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Do I Need a Permit for Electrical Installation?
Yes. In most cases, electrical work in North Carolina requires a permit, especially for major upgrades or new system installations. Permits ensure that the work meets current building codes and safety standards. At Vancelectric, we handle all the paperwork and approval processes, so you don’t have to worry about navigating the permitting system.
How Often Should I Upgrade My Electrical Panel?
Electrical panels typically last between 25 to 40 years, but if yours is over 25 years old or you're constantly resetting breakers, it's likely time for an upgrade. Upgrading your panel ensures your electrical system can handle modern energy usage and helps prevent overheating, tripped breakers, or even electrical fires.
Can You Install EV Chargers at Home?
Absolutely. We install home EV chargers for Tesla, Ford, Chevy, and other leading EV models. We calculate your current panel load and make any necessary upgrades to ensure your charger runs safely and efficiently. We also pull permits and provide inspections for a hassle-free experience.

While we prioritize scheduled services, we understand that urgent situations arise. Depending on availability, we do accommodate emergency requests for things like power loss, burning smells, or dangerous sparking. If your safety is at risk, call us right away.
What’s Included in a Landscape Lighting Project?
Our landscape lighting packages include a full consultation, custom layout, professional installation, and optional features like motion sensors, timers, or smart controls. Every system is built to enhance curb appeal, improve security, and withstand harsh weather conditions year-round.
