Underground EV Charging Installation with Trenchless Utility Conduit
Crigger Power installs underground conduit systems for EV charging stations using trenchless boring methods that avoid surface disruption and meet electrical code. We bore clean conduit paths beneath pavement, parking lots, foundations, and finished surfaces, making room for fast, reliable power-up without tearing up the site.
Our crews manage the full process in-house, using Crigger-owned rigs and layout tools. We handle everything from bore alignment and conduit pullback to utility coordination and site routing. We install the underground system that gets your chargers live on time and on grade.
Why Trenchless Methods Are Ideal for EV Charger Installation
Installing EV charging stations often requires running new conduit through areas already paved, occupied, or built out—parking lots, sidewalks, roadways, and driveways. Traditional trenching in those zones can mean major disruption, lengthy downtime, and expensive surface restoration.
Trenchless boring eliminates that risk. It lets us install conduit beneath those finished surfaces without cutting through them, preserving the site and accelerating the schedule. Our crews bore clean, grade-locked paths for power and data conduit under curbs, asphalt, or concrete without disrupting daily operations or risking rework.
Whether the job is in a tight downtown garage or a high-traffic commercial lot, we keep the chargers powered and the surface untouched.

These services are built to support your entire EV charging lifecycle without handoffs, delays, or surface disruption.
EV Charging Installation FAQs
Installing EV chargers demands precise boring, accurate conduit placement, and long-term reliability. Whether you’re developing commercial infrastructure, expanding a fleet depot, or planning a public station rollout, Crigger Power handles the underground utility side with zero outsourcing.

EV chargers receive power through a network of underground conduits and cabling, often tied into existing electrical systems or new utility service lines. Crigger Power uses trenchless boring to install these conduits beneath roads, sidewalks, and hardscapes without excavation.
This method protects the surface and allows clean, straight paths to be drilled for fast tie-in. Our team ensures grade, alignment, and separation meet code so the final hookup is seamless and reliable
Once the conduit is placed, electricians pull and connect the proper wire gauge for the charger’s voltage and amperage, securing the system to meet NEC standards and local permitting requirements.
We work with a wide range of commercial and private clients who need trenchless boring and conduit placement for EV charger installation:
- Retail & Commercial Parking Lots: Large-scale charger deployment in public or customer-facing areas
- Fleet Charging Depots: Utility conduit for delivery, rideshare, or service vehicle operations
- Parking Garages: Bored conduit paths between levels without surface disruption
- Multi-Unit Residential Buildings: Underground installs for shared or individual tenant chargers
- Municipal or Public Projects: DOT or government-funded charging stations requiring strict utility coordination
Our crews manage everything underground, so your site build stays on schedule from start to finish.
The underground utility portion—boring conduit, setting access points, and prepping for pull-through—can be completed in as little as one to three days, depending on site conditions and charger quantity. Crigger Power mobilizes fast and drills without trenching delays, even in high-traffic or hard-access areas.
The full installation timeline depends on additional factors like permitting, charger type (Level 2 vs. DC fast charging), and surface work coordination. With everything prepped and bored ahead of time, surface teams can move quickly into mounting, wiring, and activation.
EV charger sites must follow National Electrical Code (NEC) requirements, particularly Articles 625 and 300, for wiring methods and conduit placement. Local jurisdictions may also mandate trench depth, conduit fill ratios, and GFCI/AFCI protection.
Crigger Power’s boring crews install all underground utility paths to meet these code specs, including proper burial depth, alignment with existing utilities, and accurate terminations for tie-in. We coordinate with your electrical contractors or inspectors to ensure smooth approvals and zero rework.
Trenchless boring allows us to install underground conduits beneath paved lots, sidewalks, curbs, and infrastructure without cutting or removing surface materials. This eliminates the need for patchwork, traffic control, or extended downtime in active spaces.
It also allows for quicker mobilization and cleaner routing. With Crigger Power managing the bore from layout to pullback, you avoid subcontractor delays and get precision conduit paths ready for power. Whether you’re adding five chargers or fifty, our trenchless methods keep the project moving with no surprises.
