Short garage run on an existing panel with capacity is the low end. Long runs, exterior conduit, subpanels, or a service upgrade push it up.

IS THIS YOU?

What decides your price

If two or more of these describe your house, it is worth a free estimate. If none of them do, you probably do not need us yet — and we would rather tell you that now.

01 Distance from panel to parking spot — every foot of wire costs
02 Whether your panel has two free slots and spare capacity
03 Indoor drywall run versus exterior conduit
04 Charger amperage — 32A, 40A, or 48A changes the wire size
05 Whether the run crosses masonry, an attic, or a slab
06 Hardwired versus a NEMA 14-50 receptacle
LEVEL 1 VS. LEVEL 2 VS. LEVEL 3

Which charger level does your home actually need?

Almost every Central Florida home should be on Level 2. Here's the honest comparison so you can see why.

LEVEL 1 · 120 VOLTS

The cord that came with the car

3–5 mi of range per hour

Plugs into a regular outlet. Fine if you drive under 30 miles a day and can leave it plugged in all night. Usually no install needed — though we often find the garage outlet is shared and trips.

Level 1 — wall outlet
LEVEL 2 · 240 VOLTS · WHAT WE INSTALL

The right answer for most homes

20–44 mi of range per hour

A dedicated 240-volt circuit, like a dryer. Full charge overnight for any EV on the road. This is what the price ranges below are for.

Level 2 — home charger
LEVEL 3 · DC FAST CHARGING

Not a home product

~80% in about 30 minutes

Needs three-phase commercial power. It's what you find at highway stations and some businesses. If someone quotes you one for your house, get a second opinion.

Level 3 — DC fast charging
AT A GLANCE
Range added in one 8-hour night
Level 1 · wall outlet~25–40 mi
Level 2 · what we install~160–350 mi

The average Central Florida commute is under 40 miles a day. Level 2 refills a week of driving in one night.

CHARGERS WE INSTALL

Every major brand. Or bring your own.

We don't sell chargers, so we have no reason to push one. Buy whichever fits your car and budget — any UL-listed unit — and we'll install it to the manufacturer's spec.

TESLA WALL CONNECTOR

Tesla Wall Connector installation in Orlando.

For Orlando EV charger installation, the Tesla Wall Connector goes in like any hardwired Level 2 unit, with a few settings that have to match your panel.

CIRCUIT

Up to 48 amps on a 60-amp breaker

That is full speed. If your panel cannot spare 60 amps, we set the charger lower during setup so it matches the circuit we can safely give it.

WHICH ONE

Wall Connector or Universal

The Tesla-only Wall Connector charges Teslas. The Universal Wall Connector also charges any J1772 car, so it is the better pick if a non-Tesla is coming.

TWO TESLAS

Power sharing on one circuit

Two Wall Connectors can share one circuit and split the power between cars automatically, instead of you paying for a second circuit or a bigger service.

WI-FI

We check the garage signal first

The Wall Connector uses Wi-Fi for setup and firmware updates. We check the signal where it mounts before we drill, not after.

INCENTIVES · CHECKED OCTOBER 2026

What you can get back on a home EV charger installation.

It depends on your utility. Here is what OUC and Duke Energy Florida offer homeowners right now, and what ended.

OUC · ORLANDO

$200 when you buy or lease an EV

OUC pays a $200 bill credit for a new EV purchase or lease, if you apply within six months. It does not rebate the charger itself, and OUC asks customers to contact it before adding a 240-volt charger. Make that call before your install date.

DUKE ENERGY FLORIDA

A monthly credit, plus help with the wiring

The Off-Peak Charging Credit pays $7.50 a month for charging on a Level 2 charger during off-peak hours, for up to two EVs per account. The Charger Prep Credit is a one-time credit toward the wiring and outlet work. It does not cover the charger or the permit.

FEDERAL TAX CREDIT

The 30C home charger credit has ended

The federal credit for home chargers stopped for equipment placed in service after June 30, 2026. A charger installed now does not qualify, whatever anyone selling one tells you.

In Kissimmee (KUA), Winter Park, or another city-owned utility? Ask your utility, or ask us at the estimate. Programs change, so we confirm what is current for your address and give you an itemized invoice for any application.

WHY TWO INSTALLS COST DIFFERENT AMOUNTS

Five things set your price.

01
Panel capacity

Room for a 40–60 A breaker? We check with a free load calculation — most homes have it.

02
Distance

Every foot from panel to parking spot is wire and conduit. Same-wall installs are cheapest.

03
The route

Through an attic, under a slab, across block walls or outside in conduit — each changes the labor.

04
Charger type

A 14-50 outlet, a hardwired 48 A unit, or a smart charger with load sharing.

05
Permit

Already in our price. Many installers quote without it and add it later.

WHAT IT COSTS

Real numbers.
Not "call for pricing."

Nobody else in this market publishes ranges, which is exactly why we do. You will get an exact number at the estimate — this is so you know whether to bother calling.

Receptacle or charger near the panel
$650 – $950
Under 20 feet, existing capacity, NEMA 14-50 or hardwired 40A.
Typical garage install
$950 – $1,400
20–60 foot run, conduit where exposed, dedicated 50–60A circuit.
Long run, subpanel, or load management
$1,400 – $1,900
Opposite side of the house, detached garage, or a load-sharing device instead of a service upgrade.

We price match any written quote from another licensed, insured contractor. Military, first responders and teachers get a discount — just say so on the phone, no coupon to find.

The charger itself isn't included. These prices are for installation only — buy the charger you want (Tesla, ChargePoint, Emporia, or any UL-listed unit) and we'll install it.

BEFORE YOU BUY A CHARGER

Three ways to charge at home. Pros and cons of each.

Which one fits depends on your panel, your garage and how far you drive. We'll tell you straight at the estimate — this is the short version.

OPTION
✓ PROS
✕ CONS
OPTION 1

Plug-in charger on a NEMA 14-50 outlet

✓Usually the lowest install cost
✓Take the charger with you if you move
✓Works with almost any plug-in charger
✕Tops out around 40 amps, so charging is a bit slower
✕The outlet wears out with daily plugging and unplugging
✕Needs a GFCI breaker, which can nuisance-trip with some chargers
OPTION 2

Hardwired wall charger

✓Fastest home charging, up to 48 amps
✓No outlet to wear out or overheat
✓Cleaner look, and rated for outdoor mounting
✕Stays with the house — moving it means a service call
✕Needs more panel capacity than a plug-in
✕Slightly higher install cost
OPTION 3 · OFTEN THE SMART PICK

Smart charger with load management

✓Often avoids a $2,400+ panel upgrade
✓Control charging from a phone app
✓Two cars can share one circuit
✕Charger costs more up front
✕Needs solid Wi-Fi in the garage
✕Charging slows when the house is under heavy load
Smart chargers let you run the power, not just plug in.

Illustrative numbers. Your real figures come from the free load calculation at the estimate.

App features vary by brand. Tesla Wall Connector, Emporia, ChargePoint Home Flex and Wallbox all offer app control. We'll set the amperage limit to match your panel's load calculation when we install it.

5-MINUTE CHECKLIST

Decide these before you order a charger.

Not sure on any of them? That's what the free estimate is for — we'll answer all six in one visit.

Where you park

Garage, carport or driveway. Outdoor spots need a weather-rated unit.

Cable reach

Measure from the wall to your charge port. Most cables are 18–25 ft.

Plug-in or hardwired

Plug-in moves with you; hardwired is faster and lasts longer.

How fast you need it

32 A covers most commutes. 48 A only matters if you drive far every day.

One car or two

Planning a second EV? Load sharing now saves a second circuit later.

HOA or condo rules

Some need board approval for exterior conduit. Ask before we schedule.

NO SURPRISES

How the install goes

Most people's worry is not the price, it is not knowing what is about to happen in their house. So here it is.

Estimate
Load calculation on your actual panel — not a guess from the phone.
Hour 1
Circuit laid out, route confirmed with you before a single hole is drilled.
Hour 2
Wire pulled, conduit strapped and straight. It should look like it came with the house.
Hour 3
Charger mounted, breaker landed, panel relabeled.
Hour 4
Commissioned, app paired, and we watch it pull real current before we leave.

COMMERCIAL & MULTI-UNIT

Charging for businesses, condos and HOAs.

Workplaces, retail lots, apartment and condo garages, fleet parking. We do the load study, size the service, pull the commercial permit and coordinate with your property manager or board — one charger or twenty.

PERMITS & CODE

We handle it. You handle nothing.

EV circuits are permitted electrical work in every Central Florida jurisdiction. It is a fast permit and a quick inspection — the only thing that slows it down is an installer who skipped it, which is also how you void your homeowner's coverage.

WHY THIS MATTERS TO YOU
Unpermitted work follows the house

It surfaces at resale, in an insurance claim, and in an inspection you did not schedule.

A cheap quote often means no permit

If a bid is dramatically under ours, ask whether the permit is included. Usually that is the difference.

We run ours in house

Filed, scheduled, and met. Customers thank our office by name in reviews for exactly this.

QUESTIONS WE ACTUALLY GET

Straight answers.

Do I need a panel upgrade for an EV charger?

Usually not. A load calculation tells us for certain, and load-management devices can often avoid an upgrade entirely. We have talked plenty of people out of a $3,000 upgrade they did not need.

Hardwired or plug-in?

Hardwired is slightly more efficient and tidier; a 14-50 receptacle is more flexible if you change cars. We will tell you which fits your setup.

How long does it take?

Most installs are half a day. Long runs or a subpanel can take a full day.

Are there rebates in Central Florida?

Utility and federal incentives change year to year. Ask us what is current when you call — we track them because our customers ask.

Can you install a charger I already bought?

Yes, any listed unit. We are not tied to one brand.

Two cars, two chargers?

Common. Load management lets two chargers share a circuit intelligently instead of doubling your service.

Do I need a permit?

Yes, an EV circuit is permitted work. We file it.

Outdoor install in Florida weather?

Fine with a listed outdoor-rated unit and proper conduit. Ninety percent of our failures on other people's work are bad exterior penetrations.

What size breaker does a Level 2 charger need?

The breaker is sized at 125% of what the charger draws, because charging is a continuous load. A 32-amp charger needs a 40-amp breaker, a 40-amp charger needs 50, and a 48-amp charger needs 60. We match the wire to the breaker and set the charger's own limit to agree.

Do I need a permit for an EV charger in Orange, Seminole or Osceola County?

Yes. A new EV circuit is permitted electrical work in every Central Florida city and county we serve. We file the permit and meet the inspector, and the permit is already included in our price.

Can a Tesla charger charge a non-Tesla car?

The Tesla Universal Wall Connector can — it has a built-in J1772 adapter, so it charges a Tesla and almost any other EV. The standard Tesla Wall Connector is Tesla-only unless you add an adapter. Most new non-Tesla cars are moving to the Tesla plug (NACS), so either one is a safe long-term choice.

Is a smart EV charger worth it?

Usually, yes. App control lets you schedule charging overnight, cap the amps so the house never overloads, and share one circuit between two cars. Load management alone often avoids a panel upgrade, which pays for the smart charger several times over.

Can you install chargers at a business, condo or HOA?

Yes. Workplaces, retail, multi-unit buildings and HOA common areas are commercial installs — we do the load study, pull the permit, and coordinate with the association or property manager. Condo owners: get board approval for the route first and we'll tell you exactly what to ask for.

Is there still a federal tax credit for home EV chargers?

No. The federal 30C credit for home chargers ended for anything installed after June 30, 2026. Some utilities still run rebates or cheaper overnight rates — ask us when you call and we'll tell you what's current for your address.
