EV Charger / EVSE Permit (via Over-the-Counter Electrical Permit) in Dewey-Humboldt, Arizona

Dewey-Humboldt requires an ev charger / evse permit (via over-the-counter electrical permit) for: OTC Permit Application with 'Electric' checked as the type of work — the same shared form used for demolition, plumbing, and mechanical permits per the otc-electrical-plumbing-mechanical-permit entry; Governed by the National Electrical Code as adopted by the Town (§ 150.07); the specific NEC edition year is not independently confirmed from a Town-published source (see the codesAdopted note on the same gap); For projects not exempt under A.R.S. § 32-1121, the contractor must hold a current, valid Arizona ROC license (verify at roc.az.gov/licensing); an Owner-Builder may self-perform under the same statutory exemption used for other Town electrical work; OTC checklist requires only a signed application, a Plot Plan (8.5"x11"), and a deposit — not the full 2-set construction plans or truss calculations required for a Residential Building Permit; No Town document explicitly names EV chargers as in-scope for the OTC 'Electric' checkbox — this is inferred from the OTC Permit's stated general coverage of 'electrical work' rather than confirmed by name; call the Building Safety office (928-632-7362) to confirm before applying. If your project isn't listed, confirm with Town of Dewey-Humboldt Community Development Department — Building Safety Division at 928-632-7362 before starting work.

Dewey-Humboldt, Arizona has adopted: Arizona has NO statewide mandatory building code floor for general construction — code adoption is a per-city/county authority under state enabling statutes (e.g., A.R.S. Title 9 for municipalities). The Town of Dewey-Humboldt (incorporated 2004 from the merger of the unincorporated communities of Dewey and Humboldt) runs its own independent Community Development Department / Building Safety Division and independently adopts and administers its own construction codes under Chapter 150 (Building Codes) of the Dewey-Humboldt Code of Ordinances; it does NOT contract the building-permit function to Yavapai County.

No. The Town has no dedicated EV-charger or EVSE permit, form, or fee. An EV charging station installation is electrical work, processed through the Town's Over-the-Counter (OTC) Permit application by checking 'Electric' as the type of work — the same combined form used for demolition, plumbing, electrical, and mechanical permits.
