We evaluate your electrical panel to ensure it has enough capacity for a charger. If not, we'll discuss upgrade options.
We pull the required electrical permit from your city or county.
We run a dedicated 240-volt circuit from your panel to the garage or exterior charging location.
We mount the charger (or NEMA 14-50 outlet) and test it to ensure it's delivering full power.
A typical EV charger installation starts with an electrician checking your panel: how much spare capacity it has and whether the existing service can handle a new 240-volt circuit without overloading. From there we run wire from the panel to the charging location, whether that’s a garage wall, an exterior wall, or a spot away from the panel that needs conduit. We install a dedicated breaker sized to the charger, then either hardwire the unit or add a NEMA 14-50 outlet, depending on what you’re installing. Once the circuit is live we test it under load before we call the job done. Expect the power in that part of your home to be off briefly while we make the connection, and expect a short walkthrough of how the new circuit works before we leave.
EV charger installation in Kansas City means working across two states and several permitting offices. Our shop is based in North Kansas City, Missouri, and we serve homes on both sides of the state line, so a Missouri address in Clay County, Platte County, or Jackson County each has its own permitting office, while a Kansas-side address falls under a different set of jurisdictions entirely. New circuits still need a permit and inspection through whichever office covers that address. Kansas City’s housing stock spans decades, from older homes built with smaller electrical services to newer construction with more spare capacity, so panel capacity varies house to house. When a job calls for more capacity than the existing service provides, we coordinate with Evergy on the utility side of that upgrade.
The timeline depends mostly on how far the charger sits from your electrical panel and whether the panel already has room for a new 240-volt circuit. A charger mounted close to an existing panel with spare capacity goes faster than one that needs conduit run through a finished wall or a panel upgrade first. We walk your specific setup and give you a real timeline before work starts, not a generic number that doesn’t match your house.
Yes, adding a new circuit for an EV charger requires an electrical permit and an inspection by the authority having jurisdiction for your address. We handle the permit application and schedule the inspection as part of the job, so you don’t have to deal with the paperwork yourself. Requirements and review differ depending on whether your home falls under a Missouri or Kansas jurisdiction.
In most cases yes, though you’ll want to check your HOA’s rules and confirm you have access to your own electrical panel before scheduling. Shared or limited electrical service in some townhome and condo setups can affect what’s possible, so we look at your panel and parking situation together. If your dedicated parking spot is far from your panel, that distance is usually the bigger factor than the HOA itself.
It depends on how you plan to use it. A hardwired unit like a Tesla Wall Connector is fixed in place and tends to charge fastest and hold up best over years of daily use, while a NEMA 14-50 outlet lets you unplug a portable charger and take it with you, or swap chargers later if you change vehicles. Neither one is wrong, it comes down to whether you want flexibility or a fully fixed installation.
You can install a plug-in Level 1 charger yourself since it just uses a standard outlet, but a Level 2 charger installation involves a new high amperage circuit that needs to be sized, wired, and permitted correctly. A charger pulling 30 to 60 amps continuously for hours every night puts real stress on wiring and connections, and mistakes there are a fire risk, not just an inconvenience. Licensed installation also keeps the work code compliant and permitted, which matters if you ever sell the house.
