I understand that if I hire an electrician to install a Wall Connector and as part of the job they also have to upgrade my service from 100A to 200A, the whole job would be eligible for the tax credit, 30% up to $1,000 maximum credit.
A full service upgrade is quite expensive. So I was thinking about having a Wall Connector professionally installed now (even though I could only do 30A instead of 60A if I had upgraded service). Say that runs $1,500. I'd only get a $500 tax credit.
But if I did it all at once, which I'm sure would be more than $3,000, I could get the whole $1,000 tax credit.
So if do just the Wall Connector now and take the credit this year, then do the service upgrade a year or more down the road, I'd be leaving $500 on the table?
Is my thinking correct on this?
