Electrical permit path for home EV charger installation
Houston's code enforcement permit-requirements page says work to erect, install, enlarge, alter, repair, remove, convert, or replace regulated electrical systems must first obtain the required permit. A Level 2 home EV charger commonly adds electrical equipment or a branch circuit, so homeowners should confirm the scope with Electrical Inspections and use the registered-contractor electrical permit path before installation.
