EV Charger Installation Cost

EV charger installs price out mostly on distance from the panel and whether the panel has room for the added circuit. A garage right next to the panel is a different job than a detached garage fifty feet away, and either can turn into a bigger job if a panel upgrade turns out to be needed first.

What moves the price

  • Distance from the electrical panel to the charger location
  • Whether the existing panel has spare capacity or needs a load calculation and possible upgrade first
  • Charger amperage (a 40A circuit costs less to run than a 60A circuit for a faster charger)
  • Indoor/garage installs versus exterior installs needing weatherproof conduit
  • Permit requirements, which vary by jurisdiction for a new dedicated circuit
