EV Charger Installation FAQs
Having an EV charger installed can make it convenient for you to charge your electric vehicle and can add value to your home. The average cost to have an EV charging station installed ranges between $1,500-$2,500, but at Bradbury Brothers, our installation costs typically range from $1,500-$2,000.
However, the cost to have an EV charger installed varies depending on whether you want a Level 1 charging station or a Level 2 charging station installed. Bradbury Brothers provides quality EV charging station installation services from licensed professionals.Â
EV charging stations cannot be installed without the proper license, tools and knowledge. If you want an EV charging station installed, you’ll need to have yours installed by a licensed professional with experience in installing EV charging stations. In addition to violating code regulations, installing an EV charger yourself can make your charger unsafe to use and can void your warranty. Having an EV charging point installed by a professional will make sure you can use it safely and all regulations are followed.
If you’re thinking of having an EV charging point installed, Bradbury Brothers can help you get started. Call us today for more information on our EV charging station services.
You should not have a Level 3 EV charger installed at your home. They are usually very expensive to install and the voltage of Level 3 charging stations is much higher than most residential properties can handle. Level 3 chargers are reserved for commercial properties. Currently, Bradbury Brothers does not install level 3 chargers.

It all depends on charging stations but A 240 volt NEMA 14-50 outlet is the preferred home charging installation option for Tesla automobiles. Electric stoves and leisure vehicles frequently utilize this plug. This outlet, which is equipped with a 50 amp circuit breaker, allows for a recharge rate of around 37 kilometers per hour.
The outlet costs $45, and Tesla predicts that the installation will cost between $600 and $1000, resulting in a considerable increase in charging metrics. In reality, depending on the automobile type, you’ll get 20-30 miles per hour of charging. This translates to 29 miles per hour for the Tesla Model S and 25 miles per hour for the Tesla Model X.
A licensed and qualified electrician should do the installation. A Powerwall system comprises at least one Powerwall, a Tesla Gateway, and the home’s electrical infrastructure, such as a meter, main panel, and solar inverter. Powerwall may be placed on the wall or floor, and the Powerwall and the Gateway feature various cable entry ports for flexible installation. Installers may commission the Powerwall system using a smartphone, tablet, or laptop. This is not a do-it-yourself project!
Why not just use public EV stations?
Many areas of the country that have a lot of electric cars on their roads have built an infrastructure that includes many public stations; so dependent on the area you live in and the amount of daily driving you do, public stations may be adequate for you.
But if you have anxiety and a fear of getting stranded, you may want to at least look into having your own personal EV charging station.
What type EV charging station do I get?
A Level 1 charging station uses a 120 volt plug and doesn’t require a professional install. It’s portable and requires you have plugged in for up to 12 hours to charge a battery (usually overnight).
A Level 2 charging station uses 240 volts like what is required for a dryer or air conditioner. It only requires 4-6 hours and as expected are more expensive.
Electric Car Charging Station Installation Cost
The average cost for installing a standard EV charging station near The Woodland is between $1,500 and $2,500.
The cost of a 240 volt station is between $250 and $750 for a top of a line. And there are additional materials and EVSE supplies needed like new circuits, attachment plugs, vehicle connectors and conduits and outlets.
Then you will definitely need to have the installation done by a licensed professional electrician and that cost will vary dependent on the application and your existing electrical panel.
Some electricians charge by the hour and depending on their experience, that can have a wide range. Better to get an experienced, licensed professional that will offer you a flat rate. Most quality electrical companies will give you a free estimate after visiting your home.
