Why Electricians Choose Stepwise Tap: An Affordable Load Management Solution
Stepwise Tap™ - The Load Management Solution
Today’s homeowners want to electrify: EV chargers, heat pumps, induction ranges, hot tubs, and more. And they want to do it affordably without the cost, delay, or disruption of a service upgrade. At the same time, electricians are feeling the pressure of tighter margins, more price shopping, and projects that can stall the moment a panel upgrade enters the conversation.
Stepwise Tap was built for this exact moment.
It’s a smarter, more flexible load management solution that helps electricians close more jobs, avoid unnecessary service upgrades, and offer homeowners a better experience that delivers performance and safety.
What Stepwise Tap Means for Your Business
Stepwise Tap optimizes the power already available in the home.
It installs at the panel and dynamically manages loads so that EV charging (and other electrification upgrades) can happen safely within existing amperage.
For electricians, that means:
Easier installs
Fewer rejected quotes
Faster project approvals
More jobs closed
All Seasons. All Chargers. All Spaces.
Stepwise Tap is designed to be versatile because each home and electric panel set up is unique. It’s ideal for outdoor panels, detached garages, and space-constrained installs.
Here are three features that make it stand out from other load management solutions:
1. Built for Anywhere: Indoor or Outdoor, Rain-Tight
Not every install can be done indoors. Stepwise Tap is:
Indoor/outdoor rated
Rain-tight
This flexibility means fewer compromises during installation and more jobs you can do regardless of site conditions.
2. Works With All EV Charger Brands
Your customer can use whatever charger they (or you) prefer
Stepwise Tap works with all EV charger brands, giving you freedom to:
Use the charger your customer prefers
Know you can install whatever charger the customer has already purchased (if they bought it in advance and have it there when you arrive).
This makes Stepwise Tap a reliable go-to solution across a wide range of EV charging projects.
Advanced Control Where It Matters: Dynamic EV Charging
For these chargers, Stepwise Tap goes even further.
It provides dynamic load management for all Tesla vehicles and Wallbox chargers (including Chrysler, Jeep, and Dodge-branded units), it
Modulates EV charging levels like a dimmer switch
Automatically adjust charging based on available capacity
3. Fits Where Others Can’t: Rogowski Coil Design
Space constraints can be one of the biggest pain points in residential electrical work.
Stepwise Tap uses a Rogowski coil, which allows it to:
Install easily in tight panels
Avoid the bulk of traditional current transformers
Fit cleanly where other load management devices struggle
Less wrestling with the panel. Faster installs. Cleaner results.
Rogowski Coil means it fits in tight spaces
The Bottom Line
Stepwise Tap is the best solution for today’s homeowner and today’s electrician.
It’s easy to install, works across applications, and delivers dynamic control that traditional load management solutions can’t match. Most importantly, it helps you keep customers with today’s heightened need for affordable and clever solutions.
