Is a service upgrade expensive?

A panel or service upgrade is typically the largest single line item in an EV charger project when it's required. That's precisely why installers want to see your panel before quoting.

Can I start with Level 1 charging?

Yes. A standard 120-volt outlet adds roughly 3 to 5 miles of range per hour, which is enough for some low-mileage households. Most drivers upgrade to Level 2 within a year.

Detached garages are more common in Franklin than in newer suburbs, and several older neighborhoods still have 100-amp services. Neither rules out home charging, but both change the estimate.

What to expect from a Franklin quote

When you request a quote through Indiana EV Installers, we send your project details to participating electricians who actually serve Franklin. Most contact you within one to two business days. The more you share up front — a photo of your electrical panel, a photo of where the charger will go, and a short walkthrough video of the route between them — the tighter the estimate you get back.

Every quote comes from a licensed, independent contractor. We do not perform electrical work; we match homeowners with installers who pay a referral fee when they win the job. You are never charged and never obligated to hire anyone.

What Indiana drivers say about the process

4.9 average from homeowners we've matched

"I sent photos of my panel on a Sunday night and had an installer at the house Tuesday. The quote matched the final bill to the dollar."

Dana R. · Carmel

Level 2 charger · 200A panel

"I expected a hard sell. Instead they walked me through what my old panel could handle, what it couldn't, and why an upgrade made sense — then let me decide. No pressure, just honest answers."

Marcus T. · Indianapolis

"Two installers reached out, both licensed and local. Being able to compare quotes without a dozen sales calls was the whole point for me."
