Home EV Charger Installation Process

Simple Process, Professional Results

First, we evaluate your electrical panel to determine if it can handle the additional load. You need to understand your home’s current electrical capacity and whether your existing electrical panel can accommodate the amps needed for EV charging without an upgrade, which requires a licensed electrician to assess with an EV charger load calculation.

Next, we determine the best location for your charger and plan the wiring route. The price varies largely based on the distance between the electrical panel and the charging station, and the complexity of the job. We handle all permit applications and ensure everything meets local codes.

Then we install your dedicated 240-volt circuit, mount your charger, and test everything thoroughly. We assess your electrical panel, recommend any necessary upgrades, obtain permits, and install the EV charger along with appropriate wiring and breaker, then test your new charger and show you how everything works. The entire process typically takes 3-6 weeks from assessment to completion.
