You should not install an EV charger (Level 2 EVSE) yourself unless you’re a licensed electrician. Level 2 chargers run on 240V circuits, typically 40 to 60 amps, and require dedicated wiring, proper grounding, and often panel upgrades — all licensed-electrician work in Washington and Idaho, plus a permit and inspection.
Why hire a professional
- 240V circuit work needs licensed electrician
- Most jurisdictions require permit and inspection
- Panel must have available amperage
- Proper grounding and bonding critical
- Manufacturer warranty often requires professional install
- Insurance complications with DIY EVSE
