Morris County does not set EV-charging parking rules for homes. New Jersey requires municipalities to permit EV chargers and 'Make-Ready' parking as-of-right under the statewide EV law (P.L. 2021, c.171). Local zoning implements those standards.
New Jersey adopted statewide electric-vehicle infrastructure rules in P.L. 2021, c.171, which makes EV charging and Make-Ready parking spaces a permitted accessory use in all zoning districts and sets model municipal standards. Morris County does not regulate home EV chargers; installation follows the state law as implemented through your municipality's zoning and the electrical/building permit process. Public and workplace charging in county facilities is provided at the Park Commission's and county's discretion. For a home charger, apply for the required electrical permit through your municipal construction office.
Installing a charger without required electrical/building permits can trigger a municipal stop-work order and fines under the local construction code.
