Questions
What owners ask first
What does EV Ready USA cost?
Nothing. The service is free for property owners. You pay the installer for the job, and only if you go ahead.
Do I need to pick a charger first?
No. Tell us the car you drive and where it parks, and the installer will recommend a charger that suits both.
What if my electrical panel is full?
The installer checks it at the visit. If it is short on capacity, they will explain the options, such as a smaller circuit, a load management device or a panel upgrade, and quote each one.
Can I use a rebate?
Check your state page for the programs open where you live. Some need you to apply before the work starts, so look before you sign.
Just have a question? Ask it here, and we will reply by email or phone.

Rebates and rules where you live
