Here's a quick look at the four most popular Level 2 chargers — and who each one fits best.
The fastest, cleanest option for Tesla owners. Charges any Tesla at full speed and comes with a four-year warranty — the longest in the industry. We mount it clean and pair it to your Tesla app before we leave.
Works with every non-Tesla EV on the road. The ChargePoint app is the most popular in the country, handles overnight scheduling, and connects to your utility's off-peak rates so you charge for less.
Compact, weatherproof, and a strong pick if you have two EVs. Its built-in load sharing lets both cars charge on a single circuit overnight without ever tripping the main breaker.
Built like a tank and tested to extreme cold. A great pick for outdoor mounts or anyone who wants a simple, no-app, do-the-job charger that lasts.
You just got your EV. You want to plug it in at home and wake up to a full battery — without a melted outlet, a surprise panel bill, or an unpermitted install that puts your homeowner's insurance at risk. NextHome EV Charger Installation covers everything between your electrical panel and your charger: the quick load check, the wiring, the outlet or hardwire connection, the permit, and the inspection.
We install every major Level 2 brand — Tesla Wall Connector, ChargePoint Home Flex, Wallbox Pulsar Plus, Grizzl-E, JuiceBox, Enphase, and more — and we tell you which one fits your home and your EV before we ever quote you. Most straightforward installs run between $800 and $2,500 all-in. If you've already settled on a 240-volt setup, our Level 2 EV charger installation page goes deeper on speeds and brand tradeoffs.
A plug-in setup uses an industrial-grade NEMA 14-50 outlet (Hubbell or Bryant) on its own dedicated circuit. We use the parts that actually handle the heavy nightly load — not the cheap ones that melt after six months.
A real check of your panel tells you whether it has room for an EV circuit. If it doesn't, we upgrade your panel the right way — coordinated with the utility, fully permitted, and ready for the rest of your home's future electrical needs.
A smart load-sharing device lets you add a second EV without a full panel upgrade. Both cars charge overnight on a single circuit without ever tripping the main breaker.
Our Process
Text or call us with a few photos of your panel and where you want the charger. We'll send you a flat quote within one business day — broken down by parts, labor, and permit. No surprises.
We pull the electrical permit with your local building department before we start. Skipping the permit can put your homeowner's insurance at risk on a future claim — we don't take that shortcut.
We protect your floors, run the wiring clean, install the charger, and walk you through the app setup before we leave. Most installs wrap in two to six hours. Panel upgrades add about half a day.
The inspector signs off on the install, the permit closes out, and you get a copy for your records. You're charging the same day in most cases — and your homeowner's insurance stays valid.
We do EV charging — not HVAC, not plumbing. When you call us, you're talking to someone who has installed Tesla Wall Connectors, ChargePoint Home Flex units, and Wallbox Pulsar Plus chargers on hundreds of homes. We know what fits your home and your EV before we ever show up.
You get a flat quote in plain English before we start. Most installs land between $800 and $2,500 — and if a panel upgrade is needed, you'll see that as a separate number you can accept or pass on. No high-pressure sales. No surprise add-ons day-of. No selling you an upgrade you don't actually need.
If you're a Duke Energy Carolinas customer, you may qualify for the Charger Prep Credit — up to $1,133 reimbursed for the electrical work needed to install a Level 2 charger. It's a real program, currently funded, and most of our customers qualify. We help you file the paperwork so you don't leave that money on the table.

Most home EV charger installations land between $800 and $2,500, including the labor, materials, and permit. A typical install with a newer 200-amp panel runs $1,200 to $1,800. Costs climb to $3,000 to $6,000 if a panel upgrade or a long wiring run is needed.
Yes. Almost every building department requires an electrical permit because a Level 2 charger adds a dedicated 240-volt circuit. A licensed electrician pulls the permit, schedules the inspection, and handles approval. Skipping the permit can void your homeowner's insurance on a fire claim.
Often, no. Most homes built after 2000 have enough panel capacity for an EV charger. We run a quick check before quoting. If your panel is older or already full, there's often a smaller workaround that costs a lot less than a full upgrade.
Most installs take two to six hours on site. A panel upgrade adds another half day to a full day. Counting the permit and inspection, the whole process usually wraps in 1 to 2 weeks from your first call to a final inspection sign-off.
A hardwired charger is wired straight to your panel and can charge at a higher amperage — meaning about 25% faster. A plug-in charger plugs into an outlet on the wall, so it's portable if you ever move. We'll walk through which one fits your home before you decide. Already have a charger that's stopped working?
