EV Charger Installation in Winston-Salem, NC: What Homeowners Need to Know - Dausman Electric, Winston-Salem NC

EV Charger Installation in Winston-Salem, NC

Electric vehicles are growing fast across the Triad. If you've recently bought a Tesla, Ford F-150 Lightning, Chevy Bolt, or any other EV, you've probably discovered that the standard 120V outlet in your garage charges painfully slowly. A Level 2 home EV charger is the answer, and Dausman Electric is Winston-Salem's go-to licensed electrician for professional EV charger installation.

Level 1 vs. Level 2 EV Charging

Level 1 (120V) adds only 3–5 miles of range per hour — barely enough for most drivers. Level 2 (240V) adds 20–30 miles of range per hour, meaning most EVs fully charge overnight. This is the standard home charging solution recommended by every major EV manufacturer.

What Does EV Charger Installation Involve?

A proper Level 2 EV charger installation includes: panel assessment to verify capacity for a new 240V, 40–60 amp circuit; running a dedicated circuit from your panel to the charging location; mounting and wiring your EVSE; and pulling the required permit and scheduling inspection. Dausman Electric handles all of this end-to-end.

How Much Does EV Charger Installation Cost in Winston-Salem?

Most homeowners pay between $400 and $1,200 for professional installation, depending on distance from the panel, whether a panel upgrade is needed, and the charger unit. Federal tax incentives may also apply — the Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property Credit can cover up to 30% of the cost.

Which EV Chargers Do We Install?

We install all major brands including ChargePoint, JuiceBox, Grizzl-E, Emporia, Wallbox, and Tesla Wall Connectors. We're happy to advise on the right charger for your vehicle if you haven't purchased one yet.
