Do I need a permit for ev charger installation in Pomona?

Permit required

Yes. In California, ev charger installation generally requires a permit, and Pomona is no exception.

Cities and counties must administratively approve electric vehicle charging stations through a building permit or similar nondiscretionary permit, with review limited to health and safety (Government Code 65850.7(b)). Every city and county must have an expedited, streamlined permitting process and a checklist for EV charging stations (Government Code 65850.7(g)). Connecting approved portable equipment to an existing permanently installed receptacle is listed as minor work (CRC R105.2.2), but a new 240-volt circuit, receptacle, or hardwired charger is new electrical work that needs a permit and must follow the California Electrical Code (CRC R338.2).
