Frequently Asked Questions

1. Do I need a permit for a home EV charger in Graham?

Yes. Pierce County requires an electrical permit for Level 2 EV charger installations. We handle the permitting for you.

2. How long does a Level 2 EV charger installation take?

Most installations take 3–6 hours, depending on wiring distance and panel location.

3. Will my electrical panel support a Level 2 charger?

It depends on your panel’s available amperage, and in some cases a panel change is necessary to safely support a Level 2 EV charger.‍ ‍

During our $69 on‑site assessment, a qualified Electrical Technician performs a full load calculation and evaluates your panel to determine whether it can handle a 40A–60A charger or if an upgrade is required.

4. How much does EV charger installation cost?

We provide a $69 Service Fee to have a qualified Electrical Technician assess your EV charger installation.

This on‑site evaluation allows us to check your panel capacity, wiring distance, and installation requirements so we can give you an accurate, transparent estimate.

5. Can you install Tesla Wall Connectors?

Yes. We are Tesla Certified installers. We also install ChargePoint, Emporia, Wallbox, Rivian, Ford, Kia, Volkswagen, Chevrolet, Porsche, and all major EV chargers.

6. Do you offer warranties?

Yes — all EV charger installations include a 3 year parts and labor warranty.

7. Should I choose a NEMA 14‑50 outlet or a hardwired EV charger?

A NEMA 14‑50 outlet offers flexibility and works well for plug‑in chargers, while a hardwired installation provides better long‑term reliability, higher amperage capability, and fewer failure points. We help you choose the best option based on your vehicle, charging speed needs, and electrical panel capacity.

8. Can I install a Level 2 EV charger myself?

No. Level 2 EV chargers require a dedicated 240V circuit, correct breaker sizing, and NEC‑compliant wiring — all of which must be installed by a licensed electrician.

DIY installations often fail inspection and can create fire hazards. Our licensed electricians ensure your system is safe and code‑compliant.

9. How long will it take to charge my EV at home?

Charging time depends on your charger’s amperage and your vehicle’s onboard charger.

Most Level 2 chargers add 20–45 miles of range per hour, allowing a full overnight charge for nearly all EVs.

10. Can you install an EV charger outdoors?

Yes. We install indoor and outdoor EV chargers using weather‑rated materials, proper GFCI protection, and code‑compliant conduit to ensure long‑term durability.

11. Will installing an EV charger increase my home’s value?

Yes. Homes with Level 2 EV charging are increasingly attractive to buyers and often sell faster in EV‑heavy markets like Pierce County.

12. What charger level do I need?

Most homeowners need a Level 2 EV charger because it provides fast, reliable charging using a 240V circuit, while Level 1 chargers are much slower and use a standard 120V outlet.

Level 1 charging can take a full day or more to recharge an EV, while Level 2 typically charges in a few hours, making it the preferred choice for daily home use. During your $69 on‑site assessment, we help you determine whether Level 2 charging is the best fit for your vehicle, driving habits, and electrical panel capacity.
