Thomas Edison Electric clients have paid an average of approximately $1,575 to $2,925 for EV charger service or installation based on six months of recent service data.
That is an average across EV charger-related service, not a guaranteed price for every new charger installation. A straightforward service call and a more involved installation can require very different amounts of work.
What affects the cost of installing an EV charger?
Where you want the charger installed is one of the biggest considerations. If the charger is close to the electrical panel, the installation may require less wiring. A charger located farther away can require additional wiring and electrical work.
The existing electrical panel matters, too. An electrician can determine whether the home's electrical system has the capacity needed for the charger or whether changes need to be made first.
Does my electrical panel need to be upgraded for an EV charger?
Not necessarily. Every home is different, and the answer depends on the existing panel, the home's electrical load, and the requirements of the charger.
An electrician can look at the existing system and determine whether it can accommodate the charger. If additional work is needed, it is better to identify that before the installation begins.
What if my EV charger isn't working?
A charger that stops working does not automatically mean that the charger itself needs to be replaced. The problem could involve the electrical connection, wiring, circuit, or another part of the home's electrical system.
Troubleshooting can help determine where the problem is coming from and whether the appropriate solution is a repair, replacement, or electrical service.
