Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging Station / EVSE Permit (State Wiring Permit Program) in Unincorporated Uinta County, Wyoming

Unincorporated Uinta County has no county-run electrical program and no dedicated EV charger/EVSE permit or fee. Per the WSFM 'LOCAL AND STATE JURISDICTIONS' chart, Uinta County unincorporated = ELEC INSP/PR: S/S, so an EV charging station installation is permitted through the same statewide Wyoming State Fire Marshal's Office (Dept. of Fire Prevention & Electrical Safety) wiring-permit program used for the county's electrical-permit entry, not a county process. The WSFM's 'Wiring Permits' page -- which lists the specific project categories requiring the more involved Plan Review process (government/school/large public-access buildings, fire protection systems, Alternative Energy installations such as solar/wind/generators, flammable-liquid storage/dispensing, commercial kitchen hoods, spray finishing, and RV/mobile-home park site plans) -- does not list EV charging stations among those Plan-Review-triggering categories, confirming that a standard EVSE circuit addition is processed as an ordinary Standard Wiring Permit rather than requiring the more extensive Alternative Energy plan review used for solar.

When you need this permit

  • No standalone EV charger/EVSE permit application exists; EVSE circuit and charger installation is permitted through the WSFM's standard state electrical Wiring Permit process, applied for via the state's online portal (wyelectrician.imagetrendlicense.com)
  • EV charging stations are NOT listed among the WSFM's Plan-Review-required project categories (which cover Alternative Energy/solar/wind/generator installations, fire protection systems, and certain large/public buildings) -- a standard wiring permit, not the more involved Alternative Energy plan review, applies
  • Enforced under the 2026 National Electrical Code (effective statewide July 1, 2026), which includes NEC Article 625 (Electric Vehicle Power Transfer System) provisions for EVSE branch circuits and disconnects
  • As of 2026-07-17 the WSFM Wiring Permits page lists Dan Tobin as covering Uinta County electrical inspections (along with Fremont, Sublette, Lincoln, and Teton counties), 307-690-8017, daniel.tobin@wyo.gov

Tips

  • Do not look for a county EV charger permit or a county electrical inspector -- unincorporated Uinta County electrical work, including EV charging stations, is permitted and inspected by the Wyoming State Fire Marshal's Chief Electrical Inspector program, the same statewide process used for all other electrical work here.
  • EV chargers are treated as ordinary electrical work (Standard Wiring Permit), not as an Alternative Energy installation requiring the more involved plan-review process used for solar/wind/generator projects -- the WSFM's own Plan-Review-required project list does not include EV charging stations.

Unincorporated Uinta County, Wyoming has adopted: NO countywide building code and NO general building permit for private construction in unincorporated Uinta County. Per the Wyoming State Fire Marshal's Office 'LOCAL AND STATE JURISDICTIONS' chart (updated 7/7/2026, re-verified 2026-07-17), Uinta County at the county (unincorporated) level shows BLDG INSP/PR = S/S and ELEC INSP/PR = S/S — the county has NOT taken general building-permit delegation under W.S. § 35-9-121; the State of Wyoming retains building and electrical jurisdiction over private construction in the unincorporated county.; CONFIRMED against the county's own site: Uinta County's 'Land Use / Building Permits' page (title notwithstanding) describes only a Land Use Certificate/Use Certificate process under the Uinta County Land Use Plan Resolution 23-02 (adopted under W.S. Title 18, Chapter 5, § 18-5-201) — a zoning/land-use approval, NOT an IBC/IRC construction permit with plan review and building inspections.; Uinta County Resolution 24-44 (Nov 2024) repeals the 2006 International Fire Code and adopts the 2024 'ICC-Codes' International Building Code text — but this is done under the county's DELEGATED FIRE-PREVENTION authority (W.S. § 35-9-121, 'Council for Fire Prevention', county acting 'as the delegated authority of the State Fire Marshal/Director') for fire-code enforcement purposes, not a general building-permit-issuing delegation for private construction. This is consistent with the WSFM chart's BLDG INSP/PR = S/S classification for the county.; Electrical work in unincorporated Uinta County is NOT locally regulated — per the WSFM chart (ELEC INSP/PR = S/S) electrical permitting/inspection is performed by the Wyoming State Fire Marshal's Office (Chief Electrical Inspector) under the state's default statewide electrical program (W.S. § 35-9-119).. Local amendments apply — see the Unincorporated Uinta County overview page for the full list.
