EV Charger / EVSE Permit in Lander, Wyoming

Electric vehicle charging equipment (EVSE) installation in Lander is processed through the City's standard Application for Building Permit under the Trade/Small Project Alteration Permit category, the same category and flat-fee mechanism used for a standalone solar retrofit's electrical scope. Resolution 1359 (Fee Schedule 2025-26) has no dedicated EV-charger/EVSE line item, so an EVSE circuit is billed under the same 'Electrical Alteration' ($30) or 'Electrical Service Inspection' ($75) flat fees used for other electrical trade work, depending on whether the installation requires new/upgraded service equipment.

When you need this permit

  • Completed City of Lander Application for Building Permit, checking the ELECTRICAL box, indicating wiring modifications, service upgrade, panel modification, meter modification/relocation, and electrical service size (amps) as applicable to the EVSE circuit
  • Design/installation work must comply with the City's locally-adopted 2023 NEC (LMC Title 3, Ord. 2025-16), including NEC Article 625 (Electric Vehicle Power Transfer System)
  • No dedicated EVSE fee line exists on Resolution 1359 — a standalone EVSE circuit with no new electrical service is billed at the flat 'Electrical Alteration' rate; a $75 'Electrical Service Inspection' fee applies instead if the project includes new or upgraded service equipment (e.g., a panel upgrade to support the charger's amperage draw)
  • If the EVSE installation is bundled into new construction, it is instead priced per the valuation-based Attachment A table (not independently published online — call the Building Inspector for a quote)

Tips

  • A simple EVSE retrofit with no new electrical service is billed at the flat $30 Electrical Alteration fee — the same rate as any other minor electrical alteration in Lander, including a standalone solar retrofit's electrical scope.
  • A $75 Electrical Service Inspection fee applies instead if the EVSE installation requires new or upgraded service equipment, which is common for a Level 2 charger circuit on an older home's electrical panel.
  • Because Attachment A (the valuation table for new-construction-bundled work) is not published online, call the Building Inspector (307-330-3114) for an exact cost if the EVSE installation is part of a larger new-construction project.
