Level 2 home EV charger installation for all electric vehicles. We assess your panel, run the wiring, handle the permit, and get you charging at home โ often in a single day.
Charging at home is the most convenient and cost-effective way to keep your electric vehicle powered up. A Level 2 charger gives you a full charge overnight โ no more relying on public charging stations or the painfully slow Level 1 charger that came with your car. We install EV chargers for all makes and models across the St. Louis metro.
The charger that comes with most EVs (Level 1) plugs into a standard 120V outlet and delivers about 3-5 miles of range per hour of charging. That means overnight charging might only give you 30-40 miles. A Level 2 charger runs on 240V (like your dryer outlet) and delivers 25-40 miles of range per hour โ a full battery overnight, every night.
First, we assess your electrical panel to determine if it has capacity for a dedicated 240V, 40-50 amp circuit. If your panel needs an upgrade, we can handle both jobs at once. We then run the circuit from your panel to your preferred charger location (usually in the garage), mount the charging unit, and test everything. We pull the necessary electrical permit and schedule inspection. Most residential installations are completed in a single day.
An EV charger typically requires a dedicated 50-amp circuit. If your panel is already near capacity, we may recommend a panel upgrade to 200-amp service, or we can install a smart load management device that shares capacity with other large circuits like your dryer or AC. We'll explain all your options during the free estimate.
We install hardwired and plug-in (NEMA 14-50) chargers. Popular options include the Tesla Wall Connector, ChargePoint Home Flex, Grizzl-E, and JuiceBox. If you haven't purchased a charger yet, we can recommend the best option for your vehicle and electrical setup. We install customer-supplied chargers as well.

๐ (314) 408-5647 โ Call NowLevel 2 EV charger installation in St. Louis typically costs $400โ$900 for the labor and wiring when your panel has capacity. If a panel upgrade is also needed, add $2,000โ$3,500. We provide free estimates that cover both the charger circuit and any panel work required.
Not always. A Level 2 charger requires a dedicated 240V, 50A circuit. If your existing panel has an open slot and available capacity, no upgrade is needed. We assess your panel during the estimate and will tell you upfront if an upgrade is required.
Most EV charger installations take 2 to 4 hours. If conduit needs to be run from the panel to a detached garage or an outdoor location, it may take longer. Panel upgrades, if needed, add additional time.
