In single-family homes, older 100-amp services may need load management or an upgrade before a Level 2 charger. Start with a load calculation.

Frequently asked questions
Yes for a Level 2 charger. Installing a new 240-volt circuit is electrical work that requires a permit from your local permit office. The electrician checks the panel, sizes the circuit and breaker to the charger, pulls the permit and schedules the inspection. A Level 1 charger that plugs into an existing 120-volt outlet needs no installation, but the outlet should be in good condition and not shared with other heavy loads.
Programs change often. Utilities such as OUC and KUA have offered EV-related rebates, and vehicle makers sometimes include charger credits. Check your utility’s and your car maker’s current programs before you buy, and keep the permit and the invoice, since rebates usually require proof of a licensed installation.
Usually only with association approval. In condos, parking spaces, conduit routes and electrical meters are often common property, so the association decides where a charger can go, who pays for the circuit and how the electricity is billed. Ask the association for its EV charging policy before you contact an electrician.
