EV charging electrical work costs
If you need electrical work to install an L2 charger (most people do), the prices can vary significantly.
The best-case scenario is something like $300-500.
You park your car close to your electrical panel, with plenty of room for a new circuit and ample load capacity. An electrician can bang out this job in a couple of hours with only a short run of wiring.
A more typical scenario is around $1,000-1,500.
In this case, your electrical panel has plenty of space and capacity, but the electrician will have to run new wire for the circuit through some walls, maybe across a finished ceiling, or through a trench in your yard.
If your electrical system can't quite handle a new circuit for an EV charger, that could add close to $1,000 to the cost.
A circuit-sharing or load-shedding device could let you squeeze an EV charger into an electrical system with a panel with no open slots or a lot of demand but only 100 amps of service. It's pricey, but it sure beats the alternative (see below).
The worst-case scenario: A full panel and service upgrade for $3,000-$5,000+.
That's in addition to the cost of installing the EV charger and the circuit. This pricey update can also take weeks or months to complete if the utility company is involved. Sometimes, it's the only good option. If you live in a cold climate and plan to switch away from fossil fuels for heating, cooking, and driving, the extra electrical capacity could come in handy.
