Home EV Charger Installation in Franklin, NH

Copp Electric installs Level 2 home EV chargers on a dedicated 240-volt circuit. We run a load calculation on your panel, install a hardwired charger or NEMA 14-50 outlet, add capacity or load management if needed, and handle the permit and inspection.

What’s included

  • Dedicated 240V circuit sized to the charger

Signs you need this

  • You are waiting overnight for a Level 1 cord to add a few miles
  • You just ordered an EV and want the circuit ready before delivery
  • You have two EVs and need load management between them
  • Your panel is full and the charger needs a home

How the job runs

  1. 1

    Load check

    We calculate whether your existing service supports the charger you want.

  2. 2

    Placement

    We agree on charger location and conduit route so the cord actually reaches the port.

  3. 3

    Install

    Dedicated circuit run, charger mounted and terminated, breaker labeled.

  4. 4

    Test & inspect

    We verify a full-rate charge session and close out the permit.

What it costs

A typical Level 2 charger installation runs from several hundred dollars for a short garage run to low four figures for long runs, trenching, or a panel with no room left. Charger hardware is quoted separately or supplied by you.

EV Chargers questions

How fast is a Level 2 home charger?
A 40–48 amp Level 2 charger typically adds roughly 25–35 miles of range per hour, so most EVs recharge fully overnight. Level 1 on a standard outlet adds about 3–5 miles per hour.
Should I hardwire the charger or use a 14-50 outlet?
Hardwiring supports higher amperage and is generally more reliable outdoors. A NEMA 14-50 outlet is convenient if you may move or swap chargers. We will tell you which fits your panel and location.
Can you install a charger outside?
Yes. We use weather-rated equipment and proper exterior conduit, including trenched runs to detached garages.
