Electrical Permit in Logan, Utah

Required for electrical work including panel upgrades, new circuits, rewiring, service changes, and new construction wiring in Logan. Governed by the 2023 NEC (adopted statewide by Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(g)). EV charger/EVSE installation is electrical work and falls under this general Electrical Permit; Logan's Building Permit Fee Resolution (No. 20-09) does not publish an EV-specific line item, so it is billed as a standalone service change or as part of the 8%-of-building-permit electrical fee.

Tips

  • All electrical work in Logan must comply with the 2023 NEC, adopted statewide by Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(g).
  • Utah allows homeowners to perform electrical work on their own primary residence, but a permit and all required inspections are still mandatory.
  • AFCI protection is required on all 15A and 20A bedroom circuits under the 2023 NEC.
  • GFCI protection is required in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, outdoors, and crawl spaces.
  • Standalone service changes use the $50 flat fee; electrical work tied to a new construction or remodel building permit uses 8% of the building permit fee.
  • EV charger (EVSE) installation is not a separate permit category in Logan — it is filed as a standard electrical permit (standalone service change or new-circuit work) using this same fee structure.
