Why EVITP Certification Matters When Choosing an Electrician for EV Charger Installations

As electric vehicles (EVs) become more common, home EV charger installation is no longer a luxury—it’s a necessity. But not every electrician is qualified to install Level 2 EV charging stations safely and correctly.

If you’re considering installing an EV charging station at your home, business, or multi-family building, choosing an EVITP-certified electrician is essential for safety, compliance, and long-term reliability.

What is EVITP Certification?

EVITP stands for Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Training Program. It is a nationally recognized certification program created specifically for licensed electricians who install Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE), commonly known as EV chargers.

Unlike general electrical work, EV charger installations involve unique challenges, including power load calculations, utility coordination, and NEC compliance. That’s why the EVITP program provides advanced training to ensure electricians are fully equipped for this specialized job.

At Precise Building Services, we are EVITP Certified and have completed over 1,000 installations across Virginia, D.C., and Maryland. Our certification ensures that every EV charger we install is safe, code-compliant, and built to last.
