EV Charger Installation
Tesla Wall Connector, ChargePoint, Wallbox, Enphase, and other Level 2 systems — installed clean, code-compliant, and ready for the long haul.
What we install
A proper EV charger install is more than mounting a box on the wall. We size the breaker for the charger you actually have, run the wire correctly through walls or conduit, and pull the permit so it's signed off by the inspector.
- Tesla Wall Connector (up to 48A continuous)
- Universal Level 2 chargers — ChargePoint, Wallbox, Enphase, JuiceBox
- Hardwired or NEMA 14-50 outlet installs
- Dedicated 60A circuits with proper conductor sizing
- Outdoor-rated installations with weather-tight disconnects
- Sub-panels for detached garages and long runs
EV Charger Tool
How ready is your home for an EV charger?
Answer four quick questions and we'll tell you what's involved. No email required.
What's your home's main electrical panel size?
Look at the main breaker — usually labeled 100, 150, or 200.
How far is the charger location from the panel?
Rough straight-line distance through walls is fine.
Where will the charger be mounted?
Which charger are you leaning toward?
Answer all four to see your readiness summary.
Why customers pick Ark
The details that make the difference on every job.
Sized to your charger
We size the circuit, the wire, and the disconnect to the actual charger and its continuous draw — not just a generic 50A breaker.
Permit pulled, code clean
Every install is permitted when required and built to current NEC standards. You get the inspection sign-off.
Clean cable management
Conduit runs are square. Cables are tucked. The finished install looks like it belongs there.
Panel work included
If your panel needs an upgrade or a load-management device to support the charger, we handle it start to finish.
Most installs in a day
Standard residential EV installs are completed in a single visit. We schedule the inspection and follow up so you don't have to chase it.
We work with your vehicle
Tesla, Rivian, Ford Lightning, Chevy Bolt, Hyundai Ioniq — different cars want slightly different installs. We know the differences.
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about this service. If yours isn't here, give us a call.
- How long does an EV charger install take?
- Most residential Level 2 installs are completed in a single day, often in 4–6 hours. More complex jobs — long wire runs, panel upgrades, detached garage feeders — can extend that to two visits.
- Do I need a permit?
- Yes, for most EV charger installs in Michigan. We pull the permit, perform the install to code, and coordinate the inspection. The permit cost is included in our quote.
- Can my existing electrical panel handle a charger?
- Often yes, but it depends on your panel size and what else is running on it. A 200A panel handles most chargers without issue. 100A or 150A panels may need a load calculation, a smart load-management device, or a service upgrade.
- Tesla Wall Connector or universal Level 2 — which should I get?
- If you only own Tesla vehicles and plan to keep it that way, the Tesla Wall Connector is excellent. If you have any non-Tesla EV — or might in the future — a universal J1772 charger like Wallbox or ChargePoint is more flexible. We'll help you decide.
- Do you handle utility company coordination if I need a service upgrade?
- Yes. If your install requires a service upgrade with DTE or Consumers Energy, we handle the coordination, the meter base, and the service mast as part of the project.
- Will my charger work with future EVs I buy?
- Universal Level 2 chargers (J1772) work with every EV sold in North America, including newer Tesla vehicles via the included adapter. Tesla Wall Connectors work natively with Tesla vehicles and with non-Tesla EVs through an adapter.
