May Need a Panel Upgrade?
Many DFW homes built before 2000 have 100A or 125A electrical panels that may not support a dedicated 50A EV charger circuit. If your panel needs an upgrade, Clements Electric handles that too — we are the DFW leader in electrical panel upgrades with thousands of panels replaced since 1982.
Learn About Panel UpgradesTypical Cost
Most DFW Level 2 installations run $800–$2,500 depending on panel capacity and wiring distance. Simple installations near the panel cost less. Longer wiring runs, panel upgrades, or complex routing increase the total. Every job receives a written, itemized quote before work begins.
Does Your Electrical Panel Have the Capacity?
A Level 2 EV charger draws a dedicated 50A circuit — more than most household appliances. Homes with 200A panels and available breaker space can typically support a charger without issue, but many DFW homes built before 2000 still run on 100A or 125A panels that cannot safely carry the additional load. Older Federal Pacific or Zinsco panels must be replaced before any EV charger work begins.
Clements Electric performs a free panel load assessment with every EV charger quote. If your panel needs an upgrade, we complete both the panel replacement and charger installation in a single coordinated project — no juggling multiple contractors.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a Level 2 home EV charger installation cost in DFW?
Most DFW Level 2 installations run $800–$2,500 depending on panel capacity, wiring distance, and whether you choose a NEMA 14-50 outlet or a hardwired unit. A simple installation near the panel with available capacity is on the lower end. Longer wiring runs, panel upgrades, or complex routing increase the cost. Clements Electric provides written, itemized quotes before any work begins.
Do I need a permit to install an EV charger in Texas?
Yes. Most DFW cities require an electrical permit for a new dedicated 240V circuit installation. Clements Electric handles all permitting and inspection coordination as part of the installation service — you do not need to visit city hall or schedule inspections yourself.
What is the difference between a NEMA 14-50 outlet and a hardwired EV charger?
A NEMA 14-50 outlet is a 240V receptacle that you plug a portable charger into — flexible and compatible with any EV's included charging cable. A hardwired unit is permanently connected to your electrical system and typically delivers faster charging speeds (up to 48A vs. 32A with a plug-in). The hardwired option is cleaner looking and slightly more efficient, but the outlet offers more flexibility if you move or change chargers.
Will my electrical panel support an EV charger?
Homes with 200A panels and available breaker space can typically support a dedicated 50A EV charger circuit without issue. Homes with 100A–125A panels, or older panels from Federal Pacific or Zinsco, may need a panel upgrade. Clements Electric performs a free panel assessment as part of every EV charger installation quote.
How long does EV charger installation take?
A standard installation with the panel in or near the garage takes 2–4 hours. Installations requiring longer wiring runs, conduit work, or panel upgrades may take a full day. Same-day and next-day appointments are available across the DFW metroplex.
