Tips

  • Centerville explicitly separates "EV Charging Station" from "Power Service Upgrade" and "Power to Panel" on its Electrical Permit Application — check the correct box(es) depending on whether the install also requires a panel or service change.
  • If a panel or service upgrade is needed to support the new charger, budget for the higher $141.40 Power to Panel fee rather than the base $70.70 Electrical Permit fee.
