Which Indy company did you use? I live in the area and am looking to get Level 2 in my garage in the near future. Thanks!I am a new owner. I ordered my P90D and then they found one almost identical to what I ordered and were able to have it sent from NY which allowed me to get if faster and to save some $$ due to a better residual value. As a result, I had less time to get an electrician in and have my wall connector installed.
My electrical box is in our basement, but both panels were full. The electrician had to install an additional panel, then run a 100 amp line across the basement utility room ceiling (about 30 feet), then up through the ceiling to the garage. They then installed a circuit breaker in the garage, and completed a conduit run up the wall and across the ceiling (24 feet), then down the wall between two garage doors and connected the wall connector. Total cost was $2400. Seemed expensive for our area (Indianapolis, IN) as some others I have spoken to report paying about half this, but not sure if their installation was as complex as mine. Very happy with the work, looks great, and they did it within a week of my initial call.
Hi @K-MTG (has a been a long time I have been MIA ). I dont think adding fixtures or appliances requires a permit. Upgrades to the service panel or adding high amperage circuits needs permit. County websites define the criteria.I just realized I needed to get permits for my chandlers, ceiling fans, hanging lights, etc... and bunch of other electric work I did since I bought the house. Each permit is like $150, I am curious if anyone actually files for all of them
Hi, I'm near the OC area. Can you PM the electrician you used. The Tesla list is a ripoff. Thanks.I am in Orang County, California. I had my done for $130.00, certified electrician; he had done so many Tesla, he even had some cool Tesla stickers made. With all the electricians that Tesla suggested in the area charges around $300.
How I did it? www.Google.com reach for electrician near me. Then, get a phone and start calling...
Hello Micah, I live in North County San Diego and will be soon be taking delivery of a Model 3. Can you please let me know the name of the North County San Diego electrician who installed your NEMA 14-50? Thank you!Ours was a simple NEMA 14-50 installation. The plug was to be installed on the wall just behind the breaker panel. Contacted the Tesla recommended electricians and got quotes ranging from $650 to $900.
Contacted a local, North County San Diego electrician who completed the job for $250, plus the City permit fee.
Please PM me if you would like a referral.
I am in portland area.
My have a standard 2.5 car garage. electric panel is on the right side of the wall when walking to the garage, I need it to be installed on the other side of the wall for easy access to the car's charging port.
The both tesla recommonded electricians quoted me 1000+ for the job, one is $800+200 permit, another is $900-1100+$200 permit. I read the tesla forum people saying any electrician quoting over $400 is a rip off, but how to find a inexpensive electrician?
Thanks
