How Much Does It Cost to Install a Home EV Charger?

​

If you’re considering adding a Level 2 EV charger to your home, one of the first questions is cost. For most homeowners in the Charlotte and Gastonia area, professional EV charger installation typically ranges between $700 and $1,500, depending on the setup and the home’s existing electrical system.

Several factors influence the total cost:

• Installation Type: A plug-in charger (using a NEMA 14-50 or 6-50 outlet) generally costs a bit more than a hardwired setup because it requires a GFCI breaker and a commercial-grade outlet.

• Cable Distance & Path: The farther your panel is from the charger location, the more wiring and labor are involved. Attic, crawlspace, or in-wall runs may also affect pricing.

• Disconnect Requirements: If your charger isn’t within sight and 50 feet of your electrical panel, the National Electrical Code requires a separate disconnect, which adds some material and labor cost.

At Vinesett Electric Service LLC, all installations include permitting, inspections, and materials (other than the charger itself). For select charger brands, we can handle the purchase and installation as a complete package.
