It's All in the Details
COIL handles EV charging installations every step of the way. A crucial part of the estimation process is an installation site evaluation performed with a Site Walk. This helps us determine the scope of work necessary and provides you with the most accurate estimate.
​
Expedite Your Quoting Process​
Site Walks may not be necessary when you provide COIL with the items listed below.
STEP 01
By providing COIL with proper documentation, a site walk may not be necessary -- expediting your quoting process.
Below is a guide with visual examples of what you need to submit to COIL to bypass the need for a site walk.

Ideal contact is someone who has access to the electrical room or electrical panel/meter and parking locations (ex: building engineer and/or facilities manager)

*If not specified, COIL will propose installing chargers as close as possible to existing electrical infrastructure to keep costs low
Provide COIL with the previous 12 months of Electric Utility Bills (example shown above).​
​​
If you don't have access to the Electric Utility Bill History:
​
-
Determine who receives these bills and has the utility log-in
- Provide us with the email associated with the Utility Company Account​

Depending on the Utility, COIL can request Utility Data if the client provides the email associated with the Utility bills and approves COIL’s access
-
STEP 03
Attachments needed from you:
​
-
Electrical Blueprints or As-Builts
-
Single-Line Diagram (if available)

Panel Schedule (if available)
​
​
​*These documents help with scoping EV infrastructure and potential future infrastructure
​​
​
Example of Panel Schedule below:
The Panel Schedule might be labeled as “Main House Panel” or “Panel Schedule”. ​​
This can be found on the inside of the electrical panel either on the door or above/below the circuit breakers.
Can’t check everything off the list above?
If you can’t access all the information required, COIL can move forward with a Site Walk.
NEXT STEPS:

2. Site Walk
