EV Charger / EVSE Permit in Casper, Wyoming

Casper has no standalone EV-charger/EVSE permit type or fee line item. Installing electric vehicle charging equipment (e.g., a dedicated 240V Level 2 circuit or panel upgrade) is electrical work, and per this file's own electrical-permit entry, Casper's Building Inspection Division holds delegated local electrical authority and performs its own electrical plan review and inspections under the 2023 NFPA 70 NEC -- not the Wyoming State Fire Marshal's statewide electrical program. An EV charger installation is billed under the same 'Combined Building, Electrical, Plumbing and Mechanical Permit Fee Schedule' (City of Casper Permit Fee Schedule, eff. February 2, 2026) used for all electrical work, since no EV-charger-specific line item exists in the City's fee schedule as of this review.

Tips

  • Casper issues its own electrical permits and runs its own electrical inspections -- unlike some peer states in this corpus where electrical work routes to a state board, an EV charger circuit here goes through the City's Building Inspection Division directly.
  • There is no separate EV-charger fee category in Casper -- an EV charger circuit is billed under the same combined valuation-based Building/Electrical/Plumbing/Mechanical fee schedule used for any electrical permit.
