Neither Horry County nor Myrtle Beach imposes a specific residential electric-vehicle charging or EV-parking ordinance. Homeowners install home chargers under the adopted electrical code and building permits; public charging follows the property owner's rules and South Carolina utility and building regulations.
Horry County's zoning parking regulations govern off-street parking surfaces, dimensions and counts by land use but do not set aside required EV charging stalls or a charging ordinance for homes. Myrtle Beach Chapter 12 regulates stopping, standing and parking generally without an EV-specific provision. As a result, installing a home Level 2 charger is governed by the adopted electrical and building codes and requires the usual electrical permit; ampacity and panel upgrades follow the National Electrical Code. Public and commercial charging spaces are enforced by the site owner and any signage they post. Residents in an HOA should also check community covenants, which South Carolina's solar/EV-friendly statutes may limit.
There is no county EV-parking penalty. Installing a charger without the required electrical permit is enforced under the county building code; misuse of a private charging stall is enforced by the property owner.
