Bucks County EV charger installation requires an electrical permit under the PA UCC. Most townships offer expedited permitting. No PA statute limits HOA restrictions on EV chargers.
Residential Level 2 EV charger installation in Bucks County requires an electrical permit under the PA UCC (34 Pa. Code Ch. 403), which adopts the National Electrical Code including NEC Article 625 for EV supply equipment. Permits are issued by the township or third-party inspection agency. Typical permit cost: $75 to $200. Load calculation must verify panel capacity; service upgrades require additional permits and PECO/PPL coordination. Pennsylvania has no HOA preemption for EV chargers, so condominium and HOA approval may be required in common areas. Bucks County Planning Commission encourages EV-ready parking in new commercial development but has no mandatory rule. PA DEP administers the federal NEVI program funding public fast-charging along U.S. 1, I-276, and I-95.
Unpermitted electrical work: stop-work order, retroactive permit with double fee, fines $200 to $500. Non-compliant installation (inadequate panel, missing GFCI): correction required before use. Utility interconnection delayed until permit closeout.
