EV Charger Installation
in Los Angeles
Professional Level 2 EV charger installation for Tesla, Rivian, ChargePoint, and all electric vehicles — installed by EVITP-certified electricians. Permits handled. Free estimates.
Why Level 2 Is Right for Your Home
A standard 120V outlet (Level 1) adds roughly 4–5 miles of range per hour — too slow for daily driving. A Level 2 charger on a dedicated 240V circuit delivers 20–35 miles per hour, fully charging most EVs overnight.
AMY Electric installs all major Level 2 chargers and NEMA 14-50 outlets. As an EVITP-certified contractor (#4051604), we're trained specifically in EV infrastructure — from load calculations and circuit sizing to LADWP interconnection requirements.

How the Installation Process Works
We assess your panel, garage layout, and circuit capacity. We'll tell you exactly what's needed and what it costs — before any work begins.
We pull the required electrical permit from the City of LA (LADBS) or applicable jurisdiction. No permit = no inspection = potential liability for you. We handle this.
We run the dedicated circuit, mount the charger or NEMA outlet, label the breaker, and test the system fully before we leave.
We schedule and attend the inspection. Once signed off, you're done — and protected.

1. Free On-Site Evaluation
We visit your home to assess your electrical panel capacity, existing 240V availability, wall condition, and distance from the panel. This 30-minute inspection determines whether we can use existing service or need a panel upgrade. You receive a written estimate with no obligation.
2. Quote & Scheduling
You receive a detailed written estimate breaking down charger unit cost (if needed), installation labor, permitting fees, and any electrical upgrades. Typical timeline: 2-4 weeks from contract to final inspection sign-off. We work around your schedule.
3. Permit Submission
We handle all paperwork with LADBS and LADWP — permit applications, electrical plans, and coordination. Typical permit turnaround: 5-10 business days. You don't need to do anything during this step.
4. Installation (1-2 Days)
Our electricians run the 240V circuit from your breaker panel to the charger location, mount the charger, connect the circuit, install weatherproof covers, and perform all safety tests — continuity, resistance, and voltage drop verification. Every installation meets NEC Article 625 requirements.
5. Final Inspection & Sign-Off
LADBS or LADWP inspector verifies the installation. We coordinate scheduling and attend the inspection. Once approved, you receive the Certificate of Completion — required for warranty claims and future home sales.
