Home electrification on a 200A service single line diagram
Heat pump and air handler, heat pump water heater, induction range and a managed EV charger, with no service upgrade. Use this when a house is going all electric on the 200A service it has: a heat pump with its air handler, a heat pump water heater, an induction range and an EV charger held back by an energy management system.

What the reviewer checks on this drawing
The reviewer checks the load calculation for the existing dwelling with the new loads in it, how the charger is counted with the energy management system, ground-fault protection where the adopted edition asks for it, and each new circuit against the nameplate of what it feeds.

Notes on the sheet
- Gas furnace, water heater and range are replaced with electric equipment on the 200A service already there.
- Load calculation for an existing dwelling with the new loads added (NEC 220.83, or 220.87 from a year of metered demand; CEC Rule 8-200), submitted with this drawing.
- The EVSE is counted at what the energy management system lets it draw (NEC 625.42 and 750.30, and 220.70 in the 2023 edition; CEC Rule 8-106). The system interrupts the charger when the service current reaches 160A, 80% of the main.
- Heat pump breaker does not exceed the nameplate MOCP (40A); conductors sized from the MCA (28A). Replace both with the nameplate data of the installed unit.
- Ground-fault protection on the outdoor heat pump (NEC 210.8(F), 2020 and later) and on the range (NEC 210.8(D), 2023). The 2023 edition exempted listed HVAC equipment until September 2026, local amendments often still do, and the CEC does not ask for either: confirm what is adopted.
- Air handler: heat strip 10 kW ÷ 240V = 41.7A, plus 4A blower = 45.7A; × 125% = 57A, protected at 60A. It is the largest load in the calculation; where controls keep the strip and the heat pump from running together, the larger of the two is used.
- Water heater 4.5 kW ÷ 240V = 18.8A; × 125% = 23.4A, protected at 30A.
- Range 11 kW: 8 kW demand (NEC Table 220.55) ÷ 240V = 33A, on a 40A circuit. Where the range instructions call for 50A, use a 50A breaker on #6 Cu.
