EV Charger Installation across Metro Vancouver — ElectroMax Systems
— What's Included

What we cover
on every install.

When you book with us you get the full job done — not just the charger on the wall. Here's everything we take care of at your home.

01

Level 2 EV Charger Installation

A 240V Level 2 charger installed wherever works best — garage, carport, or exterior wall. Full overnight charge, something a regular plug simply can't do.

02

Dedicated Circuit & Breaker

Your charger gets its own circuit and breaker so it never interferes with the rest of your home or trips other appliances when you plug in.

03

Electrical Panel Assessment & Upgrades

Older homes on 100A service can't handle a Level 2 charger running daily. We assess first, upgrade if needed, then install — no surprises mid-job.

04

Permit Handling & Code-Compliant Install

The Lower Mainland requires an electrical permit under BC Safety Authority for this work. We pull the permit for you — no calls, no forms.

05

Final Testing & Safety Inspection

We test the full system to confirm charging at the correct speed, then walk you through how to use it before we leave.

— Why It Matters

Home charging is
the whole game.

More BC homeowners are switching to EVs every year and home charging is the first thing they need to sort out. Relying on public chargers daily isn't practical — a Level 2 charger at home changes everything.

If your home was built in the last 10 to 15 years, there's a good chance your panel can handle a Level 2 charger without much work. We still come out and check before we start — just to make sure.

If your home is older and running on a 100A panel, that's something we see all the time across the Lower Mainland. A 100A panel was fine twenty years ago but struggles today once you add an EV charger on top of your regular home load. We sort that out before the charger goes in.

Every EV charger installation in BC requires an electrical permit under the BC Safety Authority. This isn't optional — it protects your home insurance and makes sure the work is done to code. We handle the permit as part of every job.

— Frequently Asked

Questions about EV
charger installation.

Do I need a permit for EV charger installation in BC?

Yes. Every Level 2 EV charger installation in BC requires an electrical permit and inspection through the BC Safety Authority. It doesn't matter where you live — this is a provincial requirement. We pull the permit and book the inspection as part of every job, so you never deal with paperwork.

How long does EV charger installation take?

Most home EV charger installations across the Lower Mainland take 3–5 hours from start to finish. If your panel needs an upgrade first, the job takes a bit longer. We give you a clear timeframe during your free estimate.

How much does Level 2 EV charger installation cost in BC?

A standard Level 2 charger installation costs $800–$1,500 installed — including wiring, dedicated circuit, permit, and final testing. If your panel needs upgrading first, expect an additional $1,500–$3,500 depending on your current setup. You get a full cost breakdown before any work begins.

Can my electrical panel handle a Level 2 EV charger?

It depends on your panel size and your current electrical load. Most homes built after 2005 across BC can handle a Level 2 charger without any panel work. Older homes are often on a 100A panel, which may need upgrading before your charger can be safely installed. We check this during your free estimate.

What rebates are available for EV charger installation in BC?

If you own a home in BC you can get up to $350 back through the CleanBC Go Electric program on your charger and installation cost. If your home is on BC Hydro you may be able to claim an extra rebate on top of that. We go through all of it with you before we leave so you don't miss anything.

Can I get an EV charger installed in my strata or condo?

Yes. You just need your strata council to approve it first — BC requires a written approval letter from your strata before any work can start. Once you have that, we handle everything else. Strata buildings can also access much bigger rebates through CleanBC Go Electric — up to $3,000 for the building and $600 per parking stall.

Why do I need a licensed electrician for EV charger installation in BC?

Because BC requires it for any hardwired Level 2 charger. If the work isn't done by a licensed electrician it won't pass inspection, and your home insurance could be affected. Every job we do is carried out by a BC-licensed electrician. We're fully insured and WorkSafeBC covered, so you're protected from start to finish.
