EV Charger / EVSE Permit in Unincorporated Juab County, Utah

Juab County does not publish a distinct EV charger, EVSE, or electric vehicle charging station permit or fee. The county's own Building Permit Application form (co.juab.ut.us / juabcounty.gov) includes "Electrical" as one of its "Type of Construction" checkbox categories (alongside Residential, Commercial/Industrial, Shed/Garage, Agricultural, Remodel/Addition, Other), confirming electrical installation work — including a new dedicated EV charger circuit — is processed under the same single Building Permit Application and valuation-based fee, computed by the Planning and Zoning Department from the project's Total Valuation. No EV-specific line item exists.

Tips

  • Juab County has no separate EV-charger or standalone Electrical permit type — check "Electrical" under Type of Construction on the single county Building Permit Application form for an EV charger circuit installation.
  • Because the county computes the Building Permit Fee from declared Total Valuation with no published rate table, confirm the exact fee for a specific EV charger project with Planning and Zoning at (435) 623-3400 before applying.

ADDED 2026-07-16: this code was missing entirely from this file's codesAdopted array; it is not listed on Juab County's own building-permit materials, but it is adopted statewide by statute, so it applies here regardless of the county's omission. Current edition as of July 1, 2026 (2021 edition governed through June 30, 2026).; 2024 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code (ISPSC), residential provisions — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(n). ADDED 2026-07-16: this code was also missing entirely from this file's codesAdopted array; same statewide-statute basis as the IEBC entry above.; 2023 National Electrical Code (NEC) — Utah Code § 15A-2-103(1)(g); statewide in force, unchanged by the July 1, 2026 revision.; NOTE (verified 2026-07-16 against the live Utah Code § 15A-2-103 text, version headed 'Effective 7/1/2026 / Superseded 1/1/2027'): the 2024 editions of IBC, IPC, IMC, IFGC, IECC, IEBC, and ISPSC listed above took effect July 1, 2026, replacing the 2021 editions; IRC (2021) and NEC (2023) did not change. The 1/1/2027 version of the statute carries identical editions, so no further flip is expected then.

Local amendments apply — see the Unincorporated Juab County overview page for the full list.
