Level 1 and Level 2 EV chargers may be installed at single-family homes with a standard electrical permit from Duluth. No zoning approval required. Level 2 (240V) typically requires a dedicated circuit and licensed electrician.
Georgia has no statewide EV charging mandate for single-family homes. Duluth issues electrical permits for Level 2 installations through the Planning & Development Department. Commercial Level 3 DC fast charging stations require Site Plan review. HOAs cannot unreasonably restrict EV chargers per best practices (though Georgia lacks the explicit Right-to-Charge law that CA and FL have). Georgia Power offers time-of-use Plug-In Electric Vehicle (PEV) rate for residential EV charging.
Unpermitted electrical work: $100-$500 fine plus permit reinstatement. Potential denial of insurance claim from fire.
