What this calculator estimates
Estimate home electric-vehicle charger installation cost from equipment, wiring distance, labor, panel upgrades, permits and incentives.
How to use it
Enter Level 2 charger equipment ($); Base electrical installation labor ($); Panel-to-charger wiring distance (ft); Wiring and conduit cost per ft ($); Panel or service upgrade ($); Permit and inspection cost ($); Mounting, trenching or repairs ($); Utility, state or federal incentives ($). Select Calculate to update the results.
How the calculation works
Equipment, base labor, distance-based wiring, panel work, permits and other site costs are added. Entered incentives are subtracted from the gross estimate.
Worked example: starting scenario
| Level 2 charger equipment ($) | 650 |
|---|---|

| Panel or service upgrade ($) | 2500 |
| Permit and inspection cost ($) | 250 |
| Mounting, trenching or repairs ($) | 500 |
| Utility, state or federal incentives ($) | 1000 |
| Estimated net EV charger installation cost | $4,610.00 |
|---|---|
| Gross installed cost | $5,610.00 |
| Wiring and conduit | $810.00 |
| Panel and other upgrades | $3,000.00 |
| Incentives applied | $1,000.00 |
Important limitations
Electrical capacity, charger amperage, trenching, detached garages, local code, utility programs and incentive eligibility can materially change cost.
