Tell us about the work

A request is for project review. Contractor availability and an appointment are not confirmed.

THE DIRECT ANSWER

EV charger installation: what should the work achieve?

An EV charger does not automatically require a panel or service upgrade. The electrician checks the proposed charging load against the existing system and considers the installation options.

Choose the charging goal

Share the vehicle, desired charging rate and where you park. Identify whether the garage or parking location is detached and whether the route crosses finished spaces.

Assess capacity and routing

Ask about a dedicated circuit, equipment specifications, load management and any panel work. Have the proposal separate charger equipment from circuit routing, trenching and finish repairs.

Confirm applicable approvals

Resolve the electrical permit by address. If confirmed utility equipment or service must change, include utility coordination. Check current program eligibility directly before counting on incentives.
