EV charging rules in Hernando County are enabling. A home charger needs only an electrical permit, and Florida law protects condo and HOA residents' right to install charging for their own use.
Installing a home EV charger in Hernando County follows the Florida Building Code and requires an electrical permit from the county Building Division. Florida law protects access: Fla. Stat. 718.113 for condominiums and Fla. Stat. 720.3045 for homeowners' associations bar associations from prohibiting a unit or lot owner from installing an electric-vehicle charging station for their own use, subject to reasonable conditions such as insurance and meeting the electrical code. Public charging is growing along the US 19 and SR 50 corridors and at retail centers in Spring Hill and Brooksville. Where a lot posts EV-only spaces, blocking one with a non-charging vehicle can be cited by the property owner.
Installing a charger without the required electrical permit triggers a stop-work order and re-inspection. Parking a non-charging vehicle in a posted EV-only space can bring a citation or tow where the property owner enforces it.
