Where should an EV charger be installed? (Garage vs outside wall)

Where should an EV charger be installed?

The best spot depends on your parking position and the cable path back to the switchboard.

Need help with an EV charger? Start with our residential EV charger installation page, browse the EV chargers hub, or request a quote.

Common locations

  • Inside the garage (clean, protected, often easiest)
  • Outside wall near the driveway (great if you park outside)
  • Carport/post (sometimes the neatest solution)

What matters most

  • Cable run distance and a tidy route
  • Weather exposure and mounting surface
  • Where the charging port is on your vehicle

Send a photo of the parking spot and we’ll recommend the cleanest placement.
