Our EV Charger Installation Services
Level 2 Home Charger Installation
A Level 2 charger runs on a 240-volt circuit and adds roughly 25–40 miles of range per hour, compared with 3–5 miles from a standard wall outlet. We install wall-mounted chargers in garages, carports, and driveways, indoors or outdoors with weather-rated equipment.
Tesla Wall Connector Installation
We install the Tesla Wall Connector and Tesla Mobile Connector setups, including the dedicated circuit, the disconnect where required, and Wi-Fi commissioning. If you’re switching brands later, a properly sized circuit works for other chargers too.
NEMA 14-50 Outlet Installation
Prefer a plug-in setup? We install NEMA 14-50 outlets on a dedicated 50 amp circuit with the GFCI protection current code requires. It’s a flexible option if you want to take a portable charger with you.
Panel Upgrades for EV Charging
If your panel is full or your service is too small, we can handle that at the same time. See our [200 amp panel upgrade] page, or our [sub-panel installation] page for garages and detached buildings.
Condo, HOA & Commercial Charging
We install chargers in condo and townhome parking areas, and for offices, retail, and multi-family properties that want charging for tenants, staff, or customers.
How Much Does EV Charger Installation Cost in West Palm Beach?
Most home Level 2 charger installations cost between about $800 and $2,500, not counting the charger itself. The main factors are how far the charger is from your panel and whether your panel has room for a new 40–60 amp circuit.
EV charger installation job | Typical range* |
|---|---|
Level 2 charger on a wall near the panel (short run) | $800 – $1,400 |
Level 2 charger, typical garage run (20–50 ft, conduit) | $1,200 – $2,500 |
NEMA 14-50 outlet on a dedicated circuit | $700 – $1,600 |
Long run, outdoor, trenching, or detached garage | $2,000 – $4,500+ |
Installation that also needs a 200 amp panel upgrade | Add $3,000 – $6,000 |
Charger unit (if we supply it) | Varies by brand and model |
*Estimates for planning only. Your exact price is confirmed in a free written estimate after an on-site or photo-based review.
What affects the cost:
- Distance from the electrical panel, and whether the wire runs through open walls, an attic, conduit, or underground
- Circuit size, usually 40–60 amps depending on the charger
- Available capacity in your panel, and whether a panel upgrade or load-management device is needed
- Indoor vs. outdoor, weather-rated equipment
- Hardwired charger vs. plug-in outlet
- Permit and inspection fees for your city or Palm Beach County
Rebates & Incentives: What's Still Available in 2026
The federal EV charger tax credit has ended. The 30C credit covered 30% of the cost, up to $1,000 per port, but only for equipment placed in service through June 30, 2026. Installations after that date don’t qualify. If you see a local company still advertising it, their page is out of date.
What’s still worth asking about:
- FPL EVolution Home: FPL offers a Level 2 charger with no upfront cost, plus a lower rate for off-peak charging at night, on weekends, and on holidays. Check FPL’s current terms for eligibility.
- Charger manufacturer promotions and automaker incentives that occasionally cover part of an installation.
We’ll tell you honestly which option makes sense, whether you buy your own charger or go through a utility program.
Our Installation Process
- Free assessment: We review your panel, its available capacity, your parking layout, and the charger you plan to use. Photos of your panel and garage are often enough to start.
- Load calculation: We confirm your service can support the new circuit. Under the NEC’s 80% rule, a 48 amp charger needs a 60 amp circuit, and a 32 amp charger needs a 40 amp circuit.
- Written estimate: A flat, itemized price covering the circuit, the labor, and the permit.
- Permit: We pull the electrical permit for the City of West Palm Beach or Palm Beach County.
- Installation: We install the dedicated circuit, mount and connect the charger, and add the disconnect or GFCI protection where code requires it. Most installs take 3–6 hours.
- Testing, commissioning & inspection: We test the charger with your vehicle, connect it to Wi-Fi if it has an app, and schedule the final inspection.
Do You Need a Permit for an EV Charger in Florida?
Yes. Installing a new 240-volt circuit for an EV charger requires an electrical permit and a final inspection, and the work must meet the Florida Building Code and the National Electrical Code. Unpermitted work can create problems with insurance claims and home sales, and some charger warranties require professional installation. Nassif Electric handles the permit and inspection for you.
EV Charging for Condos & HOAs in Palm Beach County
Florida condominium law gives unit owners the right to install an EV charging station in their designated parking space at their own expense, subject to the association’s reasonable requirements, such as using a licensed contractor, carrying insurance, and metering the electricity. We work with boards and property managers on the load study, metering, and conduit routing so the installation is approved and done right. Ask your association for its written EV charging policy before you schedule.

Frequently Asked Questions
In the West Palm Beach area, most Level 2 installations cost about $800 to $2,500 for the electrical work, plus the charger. A short run near the panel is at the low end. Long runs, outdoor installs, or a panel upgrade cost more.
A Tesla Wall Connector install usually falls in the same range, roughly $800 to $2,500 depending on the wire run and your panel. We give you a flat written price before we start.
Any licensed electrician can install one, but experience matters: sizing the circuit, running the load calculation, meeting the current GFCI rules, and handling the permit are what separate a clean install from a failed inspection. We do this work regularly.
Yes. Adding a 240-volt circuit requires an electrical permit and a final inspection. We pull the permit and schedule the inspection.
Not always. Many 200 amp services handle a charger easily. Older 100 amp services often can’t without an upgrade or a load-management device. Our load calculation tells you for sure.
Most installations take 3 to 6 hours. Long runs, trenching, or a panel upgrade can extend that to a full day or more.
Hardwired units can run at higher amperage and are better outdoors. A 14-50 outlet is flexible and lets you unplug and take a portable charger along. Both need a dedicated circuit and a permit, and current code requires GFCI protection for the outlet.
A Level 2 charger typically adds about 25 to 40 miles of range per hour, so most drivers fully recharge overnight. A standard household outlet adds only about 3 to 5 miles per hour.
No. The federal 30C credit applied to chargers placed in service through June 30, 2026. It isn’t available for new installations now. FPL’s EVolution Home program may still be an option, so it’s worth checking FPL’s current terms.
Usually, yes. Florida law allows condo owners to install a charger in their parking space at their own expense, subject to the association’s requirements. We work with boards and managers on approvals, metering, and the load study.
