This installation adds a 240-volt circuit or a hardwired charger, or changes the electrical panel. New circuits and panel work are electrical work that normally needs an electrical permit and inspection wherever an electrical permit program exists. A panel upgrade or new service usually also involves your electric utility, which may need to disconnect and reconnect power, so call them early. Many places require a licensed electrician for this work. Where a homeowner may do their own wiring, the permit and inspection still apply.
