From “I bought an EV” to plugged in
Four decisions to get a Level 2 charger working at home.
An EV charger install is more than running a wire. We do it as a project: pick the charger, prove the panel can handle it, plan the conduit run, permit + install.
- 01
Pick a Level 2 charger
Tesla Wall Connector, ChargePoint Home Flex, Wallbox Pulsar Plus, JuiceBox 40, Emporia, Grizzl-E — we install them all. Different chargers fit different vehicles, different homes, and different rebate programs. We can recommend based on your stack.
- 02
Confirm the panel can handle it
Level 2 chargers pull 32–48 amps continuous. On an older 100A panel that's already running a gas furnace + range + dryer, that's often the breaking point. Free load calculation tells us in 10 minutes whether you need a panel upgrade first.
- 03
Plan the run
Where you actually park matters more than where the panel is. Garage wall, driveway pillar, carport, side of house — we plan the conduit run to put the charger where it's useful, not just where it's easy.
- 04
Pull the permit & install
Permitted through the city or county AHJ, inspected after the work is done. A typical install is a half-day job. Drywall cuts stay minimal, conduit stays tidy, panel labeling stays accurate.
Why our EV charger installs
Three reasons our installs hold up — and why “I had a buddy run a wire” doesn't.
Brand-agnostic — we install what's right
We're not locked into one charger manufacturer. We install Tesla, ChargePoint, Wallbox, JuiceBox, Emporia, Grizzl-E, EvoCharge, and others — picked to fit your vehicle, panel, and rebate eligibility.
Load calc included
Every estimate includes a real load calculation against your existing panel. No surprise "you actually need a 200A upgrade" calls mid-install.
Permitted & inspected
Every EV charger install gets a permit pulled with the AHJ and signed off by inspection. Required by code, required by most insurance carriers, required by some utility rebate programs.

Climate-tech fit
Heat pump + EV charger + induction — the modern electrification stack.
The same homes that are switching to heat pumps are buying EVs and replacing gas ranges with induction. Each of those loads matters; together they often add up to a panel that's out of headroom. We design the electrical side as a system — not three unrelated projects — so you don't pay to open up the same panel twice.
- One load calc for the whole electrification plan
- Energy Trust + utility rebates flagged at the estimate
- Coordination with the HVAC side under one roof
EV charger questions, answered.
- Most Level 2 installs in the Portland metro run $800–$2,800 fully installed, depending on conduit run length, whether a sub-panel is needed, and whether the existing panel has the headroom. If a panel upgrade is needed first, that's a separate $3,500–$6,500 project. We quote flat-rate after the in-home assessment.
- A straightforward garage install with the panel in the same room is typically a half-day job. Longer conduit runs (charger on the opposite side of the house, outdoor mount, panel in the basement) can push it to a full day. Larger panel work is its own project.
- Sometimes. A 200A panel with reasonable existing load usually has room for a 48A Level 2 charger. A 100A panel often doesn't — especially if you're running a heat pump or have plans to. We run the load calc as part of the free estimate so you know up front, not mid-install.
- It depends on your vehicle, your charging speed needs, and whether you want app integration / scheduling features. For a Tesla, the Tesla Wall Connector is hard to beat. For non-Tesla, ChargePoint Home Flex and Wallbox Pulsar Plus are reliable defaults. We'll recommend based on the assessment.
- Yes. PGE and Pacific Power both offer EV-charger rebates ($250–$500 depending on program), and some utilities will also rebate the panel upgrade if it's tied to charger eligibility. We flag every rebate you qualify for at the estimate.
- Yes. Most modern EV chargers are NEMA 4-rated and built for outdoor mounting. We use weatherproof conduit, in-use receptacle covers where appropriate, and outdoor-rated disconnects. Wet PNW winters are no problem for a properly installed unit.
