If you’re looking for EV charger installation in Pennsylvania, I’d prioritize licensed electricians that specifically handle EV charging rather than a generic handyman. Pennsylvania has dozens of installers, and the best choice depends heavily on your part of the state.

My Pennsylvania shortlist

• Star Bright Electric — Bucks County / Central Bucks. A strong residential choice, particularly for Tesla Wall Connectors and Level 2 chargers. They advertise PA license #PA191395, itemized quotes, permitting/inspection, load calculations, and panel evaluation.
• Steel Fox EV & Electric — Centre/Clearfield and Central PA. Particularly EV-focused, with a 5.0 rating and 51 reviews in the business listing. They specialize in home Level 2 charging, Tesla Wall Connectors and NEMA 14-50 installations.
• Charge Up Solutions — Harrisburg/Cumberland and Central PA. One of the more EV-specialized options; they handle residential charging and also advertise DC fast charging for businesses and fleets.
• Hurley Electric — Mechanicsburg/Central PA. A larger, established electrical contractor with a 4.8 rating and 700+ reviews, offering residential/commercial electrical work plus EV charging.
• Weinstein Electric — Media / Delaware County / Philadelphia Main Line. Particularly interesting for commercial, multifamily, condo and HOA projects. They say they handle load assessment, permitting, utility coordination and projects ranging from Level 2 to Level 3.
• Main Line Charging — Philadelphia Main Line / Delaware, Montgomery and Chester counties. EV-focused licensed electrical contractor offering Tesla, ChargePoint and Emporia installations for homes, multifamily properties and businesses.
• Amp'd Energy Solutions — Southeastern PA / Quakertown area. EV charging and Tesla energy products are a significant focus, with particularly strong customer feedback around communication and workmanship.
• Merry Brothers — Berks, Montgomery, Bucks and surrounding counties. A good residential option that explicitly advertises licensed-PA-electrician installation, panel-capacity checks, written pricing and a workmanship warranty.
• Otta Electric — Williamsport / Central PA. A smaller family-owned electrical contractor with a PA license displayed on its site and dedicated Level 2 EV installations.
• Stapleton's Electric — Poconos / Northeast PA. Offers Level 1/2 installations, panel assessments/upgrades, major charger brands and utility-rebate documentation.

What I'd look for in the quote

For a typical home Level 2 charger, don't just compare the installation price. Ask each installer whether the quote includes:

1. Electrical load calculation for your existing panel.
2. A dedicated 240V circuit and appropriately sized wiring/breaker.
3. Permit and inspection.
4. Hardwired charger vs. NEMA 14-50 installation.
5. Conduit/wiring distance and whether walls/ceilings need opening.
6. Whether a panel upgrade or load-management device is necessary.
7. Final charger commissioning/testing.
8. Warranty on the electrical work.

A good installer should determine panel capacity before telling you that you need an expensive service upgrade. Some homes can accommodate a Level 2 charger with load management instead.

If you tell me your Pennsylvania ZIP code (or nearest city), your EV model, and whether this is home or commercial, I can narrow this to the 3–5 best installers that actually serve your area and compare them.

Places ChatGPT showed

• Hobbs & Co Inc · Data center
• Merit Electrical Group, Inc. · 4.7★ · Electrician
• Fallon Electric Co Inc · 4.0★ · Electrician
• Northstar Electrical Services Inc · 5.0★ · Electrician
• Charge Up Solutions · 5.0★ · Electric vehicle charging station contractor
• Coral EV · Electric vehicle charging station contractor

For Pennsylvania property owners and fleets, I’d prioritize installers that can handle commercial electrical work, utility coordination, permitting, load management, and ongoing charger maintenance—not just mount a Level 2 charger.

My Pennsylvania shortlist

• Hobbs & Co Inc — Southeast PA
  Best for larger commercial/property portfolios. Hobbs says it designs, installs, and maintains EV networks ranging from workplace Level 2 to Level 3 fast charging, and has experience coordinating around tenants, facility operations, and industrial customers. That makes it particularly attractive for property owners with more complicated sites.
• Merit Electrical Group, Inc. — Pittsburgh / Western PA
  Best Western PA commercial specialist. It specifically identifies commercial EV charging infrastructure and maintenance as a specialty and has EVITP-certified electrical capability—useful for multi-charger deployments rather than simple residential installs.
• Fallon Electric Co Inc — Pittsburgh
  Strong choice for fleets. Its commercial EV work includes multi-station Level 2 and DC fast charging, load management, utility coordination, and permitting/inspection management.
• Northstar Electrical Services Inc — Philadelphia metro
  Good for commercial property managers and multi-site operators. Northstar is a commercial/industrial electrical contractor that lists EV charger installation and EVITP certification, so EV work can be integrated with broader facility electrical projects.
• Charge Up Solutions — Central PA / Harrisburg area
  Good EV-focused regional option. Unlike a general electrician that happens to install chargers, it positions itself specifically around EV charging, with engineering and electrician capabilities and experience with businesses and fleets.
• Coral EV — Central PA
  Interesting fleet-electrification option. Its offering goes beyond installation into fleet analysis, charger selection, installation, charging software, and incentives/grant guidance. I'd consider it when you want a partner to help design the whole fleet program, not just perform the electrical work.

The one I'd put at the top for a large fleet

For a medium/large fleet, depot, trucking operation, municipality, or multi-site commercial property, I'd solicit proposals from Hobbs, Fallon, Merit, and Coral EV and compare them on:

1. Utility/service-upgrade experience — especially transformer, switchgear, 3-phase and high-demand-load work.
2. DC fast-charging experience — if vehicles need rapid turnaround.
3. Managed charging/load management — critical when many vehicles charge simultaneously.
4. EVITP-certified electricians and commercial permitting experience.
5. Maintenance/SLA — ask for guaranteed response times and charger uptime.
6. Grant/incentive handling — have the installer incorporate Pennsylvania and utility incentives into the project economics.
7. Future capacity — design the electrical infrastructure for your 5-year fleet, not just today's vehicles.

Pennsylvania's current AFIG program specifically supports alternative-fuel fleet vehicles and the equipment needed to refuel them. The 2026 rules also make certain Level 2 projects eligible, with requirements including at least two plugs per project.

There is also significant Pennsylvania funding activity around larger charging deployments: the state recently announced AFIG awards including $63,992 for eight dual-port Level 2 chargers for Pittsburgh Water and Sewer Authority and $300,000 for 65 Level 2 ports plus eight DC fast-charger ports for Duquesne Light.

For property owners, don't overlook the utility

The best installer can vary considerably depending on whether your property is in PECO, PPL, Duquesne Light, FirstEnergy, or another utility territory. Utility make-ready programs can materially change the project economics.

For example, Pennsylvania's current programs include commercial charging incentives and state grant programs, while PennDOT is also funding community charging infrastructure.

If you tell me the Pennsylvania city/county, property type (apartment, office, retail, warehouse, hotel, etc.), and approximate number of chargers/EVs, I can narrow this to the 3–5 best installers for that specific project and compare their capabilities, service areas, and likely fit.

Places ChatGPT showed

• Cipriani Electric · 4.0★ · Electrician
• Hobbs & Co Inc · Data center
• Charge Up Solutions · 5.0★ · Electric vehicle charging station contractor
• Coral EV · Electric vehicle charging station contractor

Yes. For commercial DC fast charging (DCFC) and fleet-depot work in Pennsylvania, I’d put these on the shortlist:

• Cipriani Electric — South Williamsport / Central PA. One of the stronger Pennsylvania-based electrical contractors for this use case. They explicitly offer Level 2 and DC fast chargers for businesses, and say they can handle projects from design through commissioning. Their broader commercial/industrial work includes power and service upgrades.
• Hobbs & Co Inc — Boothwyn / Southeastern PA. Commercial/industrial electrical contractor that advertises EV infrastructure ranging from Level II to Level III fast-charging corridors. I'd consider them particularly for larger electrical-infrastructure projects rather than residential installs.
• Charge Up Solutions — Mount Holly Springs / Central PA. Specifically markets Level 3/DC fast charging for businesses, public charging locations and fleets, with service throughout Central Pennsylvania.
• EV Charger Tech Pros LLC — Northeastern PA. Offers commercial EV work and explicitly supports Level 3 AC/DC fast charging. Better suited to smaller regional deployments than a huge multi-site program, based on the available information.
• Coral EV — Mechanicsburg. Commercial-oriented EV charging contractor offering fleet solutions, including site analysis, charger selection and installation. I'd verify the exact DCFC power range and depot size they currently undertake before putting them on a major RFP.
• Weinstein Electric — Media / Philadelphia Main Line. Their commercial offering explicitly includes banks of Level 3 DC fast chargers for fleet operations, along with load assessment, permitting and PECO coordination.

Also worth considering

Anvil Edge isn't PA-headquartered, but it lists Pennsylvania among its service states and is much more explicitly oriented toward the electrical infrastructure side of a depot: load studies, transformers/distribution, service upgrades, trenching, DCFC installation, utility coordination and commissioning. That's a good profile for a depot where the charger itself isn't the difficult part—the electrical service is.

For a large fleet or multi-site program, I'd also look beyond individual electricians to turnkey infrastructure providers. For example, Charge Rigs advertises 60–360 kW commercial DCFC deployments across Pennsylvania specifically for fleet depots, corridor stations and enterprise sites.

My practical shortlist

If I were sending an RFP for, say, 4–20 DCFC ports at a Pennsylvania fleet depot, I'd start with:

1. Cipriani Electric — strongest PA-based commercial/industrial fit.
2. Hobbs & Co. — strong Southeastern PA commercial electrical capability.
3. Anvil Edge — particularly interesting where major service/distribution work is involved.
4. Charge Up Solutions — Central PA option with explicit fleet/DCFC positioning.
5. Weinstein Electric — good Philadelphia/Main Line option, especially for a smaller-to-mid-sized depot.

The key question I'd ask every bidder is whether they have actually delivered 150–350+ kW DCFC sites, including utility interconnection, transformer/switchgear, civil work, networking/commissioning and fleet energy management—not merely installed the charger after someone else prepared the site.

If you tell me where in PA (e.g. Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Harrisburg, Allentown) and roughly how many vehicles/chargers, I can narrow this to the 5–8 best-fit contractors and compare their service areas, DCFC capabilities, fleet experience and contact information.

Places ChatGPT showed

• Evolve Installations · 5.0★ · Electric vehicle charging station contractor
• Coral EV · Electric vehicle charging station contractor
• Blue Whale EV · 5.0★ · Electric vehicle charging station contractor
• ENERGY5 | US Energy Solutions INC · Electric vehicle charging station contractor
• Poweral · 5.0★ · Electric vehicle charging station contractor

Yes. I found several Pennsylvania installers that appear to go beyond simply installing the charger and will handle at least some combination of permits, utility coordination, and incentive/rebate paperwork.

Strongest options

• Evolve Installations — Eddystone / southeastern PA. They specifically say they handle required permitting and provide guidance and documentation support for rebates and incentives. This looks like one of the better residential turnkey choices.
• Coral EV — Mechanicsburg / Central PA. More commercial-oriented, but their customer references specifically mention guidance through the incentive and grant process, acquisition, installation, and charger management.
• Blue Whale EV — serves PA from its Maryland base. Its turnkey offering includes permitting, utility coordination, commissioning, and rebate/grant support, making it particularly interesting for commercial or larger installations.
• ENERGY5 | US Energy Solutions INC — commercial/multisite focus. It advertises turnkey rebate services covering paperwork and compliance, along with utility-grade EV infrastructure work.
• Poweral — primarily commercial. It advertises incentive discovery, eligibility, application preparation/submission, inspections and close-out, plus utility/agency coordination.

One important distinction

Permit handling is much easier to find than true rebate filing. For example, Main Line Charging explicitly handles local permitting and inspection coordination, but that's different from actually submitting a utility rebate for you.

And Steel Fox EV & Electric says it handles required permits/inspections, but I would not assume it files your rebate without confirming that service beforehand.

Why your utility matters

Pennsylvania doesn't have one universal residential EV-charger rebate that an installer can simply apply for. Incentives can depend heavily on the electric utility serving the property. Current programs include offerings from PECO and Duquesne Light, while many other PA utilities don't currently list an EV-charger incentive.

Also, be careful with websites advertising the old federal 30C charger tax credit: the credit was terminated for property placed in service after June 30, 2026.

If you give me your Pennsylvania ZIP code (or just your utility—PECO, PPL, Duquesne Light, FirstEnergy, etc.), I can narrow this to 3–5 installers that specifically handle the utility approval + rebate paperwork for your address.

If you mean Eastern Pennsylvania broadly—Philadelphia suburbs, Bucks/Montgomery/Chester/Delaware Counties, Lehigh Valley, and nearby areas—these are the installers I’d put on a shortlist after checking current EV-specific credentials, service areas, reviews, and installation practices.

My top picks

1. Joe Huck Electric — Bucks County
2. My top choice for Bucks County.
3. Tesla-certified for Level 2 installations and says it has certifications covering other major EV manufacturers as well.
4. More than 40 years focused specifically on electrical contracting rather than general home services.
5. Handles Level 2 chargers, panel upgrades, circuits, commissioning and final testing.
6. Particularly good fit for Tesla, Rivian, and other home Level 2 installations.
7. Married2Electric — Pottstown / Montgomery County / western suburbs
8. Best all-around choice for Pottstown, western Montgomery, and parts of Berks/Chester/Lehigh.
9. Licensed and insured, with a lifetime workmanship warranty.
10. Specifically handles EV circuits, panel upgrades, hardwired chargers, NEMA 14-50 outlets and even load-sharing for two EVs.
11. They also have a substantial volume of customer reviews; their site currently displays 1,000+ reviews.
12. Amp'd Energy Solutions — Southeastern PA
13. Strongest choice if Tesla certification matters.
14. Tesla-certified Wall Connector contractor with licensed electricians.
15. Covers Bucks, Philadelphia, Montgomery and the Lehigh Valley, and does both residential and commercial installations.
16. I'd especially consider them for a Tesla Wall Connector or a more involved electrical project.
17. Main Line Charging — Bryn Mawr / Main Line
18. A particularly good choice for Montgomery, Delaware and Chester Counties.
19. Licensed and insured electrical contractor specializing in EV charging rather than merely offering it as an incidental service.
20. Handles assessment, permitting, installation and inspection; it specifically installs Tesla, ChargePoint and Emporia systems.
21. They also publish unusually useful information about the installation process and pricing.
22. Star Bright Electric — Bucks/Montgomery
23. Worth getting a quote from if you're around Morrisville, Newtown, Yardley, central Bucks or eastern Montgomery County.
24. Current business data shows a 5.0 rating across 98 reviews, and EV charging appears to be a significant part of its residential electrical work.
25. Their EV installations include load calculations, circuit sizing, conduit and permitting/inspection support.
26. Ace Hardware Home Services — Delaware County / Philadelphia suburbs
27. An interesting option if you prefer a larger established service operation.
28. Current local data shows 4.9/5 across 470 reviews, and EV-charger reviews specifically mention careful workmanship and attention to installation details.
29. They handle permits/approvals, electrical upgrades and safety testing.

For the Lehigh Valley

I'd put Married2Electric near the top of the list. They explicitly service Allentown/Lehigh Valley and discuss the local permitting process and panel requirements for EV chargers.

2 Live Wires in Slatington is another interesting local option. It has specific Level 2 EV experience and customer feedback mentioning competitive pricing and not feeling pressured into unnecessary work. 2 Live Wires

What I'd look for before hiring

For an EV charger, I'd favor an actual licensed electrical contractor with EV experience, rather than a company that simply advertises "charger installation." Specifically ask whether the quote includes:

• Panel load calculation before recommending a 40–60A circuit.
• Properly sized wire, breaker and conduit.
• Permit and inspection where required by your municipality.
• Hardwired installation versus NEMA 14-50 recommendation based on your particular charger.
• A solution if your panel can't accommodate the additional continuous load—load management can sometimes avoid a costly panel upgrade.
• Manufacturer-specific certification if you're installing a Tesla Wall Connector or another proprietary system.
• Written workmanship warranty.
• A clearly itemized price separating the charger, electrical work, permit and any panel upgrade.

One important point: don't automatically accept a recommendation for a 200A panel upgrade. A good installer should perform a load assessment first and tell you whether an upgrade is actually necessary. Several of the better installers above explicitly describe doing this.

If you give me your Pennsylvania ZIP code (or just your county), your EV model, and whether the panel is 100A or 200A, I can narrow this to the 3 best installers for your exact location and compare their credentials/reviews and likely installation cost.

• Parme Electric LLC · 4.9★ · Electrician
• Burke Electric · 4.9★ · Electrician
• Okot Electric LLC · 4.5★ · Electrical installation service
• ChargerPro · 5.0★ · Electricians

If you mean Western Pennsylvania broadly—not just Pittsburgh—I’d put these near the top of the list based on EV-specific experience, electrical credentials, service area, and current local evidence:

1. Renaissance Electric & Power Systems — Pittsburgh
2. My top overall pick for a residential Level 2 installation.
3. Specifically advertises Tesla Wall Connector and J1772 installations, load management, permitting and inspection.
4. Says it has an ASE-certified EV installer and has served Pittsburgh-area homeowners since 2004.
5. Particularly attractive if you might need a panel/service upgrade along with the charger.
6. The Electrical Company LLC — Oakdale / Western PA
7. Strong choice if you want a contractor capable of handling EV charging plus larger electrical work.
8. Explicitly installs EV chargers and handles everything from residential service upgrades to large commercial electrical systems.
9. Good candidate for a more complicated garage, detached-building, commercial, or multi-charger project.
10. Parme Electric LLC — Coraopolis
11. Excellent option for homeowners in the Pittsburgh airport/western suburbs.
12. Has strong overall customer-review volume and specifically discusses Level 2 circuits, load calculations and NEC-compliant installation.
13. I'd shortlist them for a conventional 40–60A home charger installation.
14. Burke Electric — Coraopolis
15. Another strong western-suburbs option.
16. EV work includes evaluating load calculations, panel capacity, breaker space and panel-to-charger distance—exactly the things that determine whether an installation is straightforward or expensive.
17. Particularly worth quoting if you're comparing against Parme.
18. Okot Electric LLC — Lower Burrell
19. Good choice for the Allegheny/Westmoreland side of the region.
20. EV work includes Level 2 installations, load calculations, dedicated circuits and permit/inspection coordination.
21. The business also has experience correcting improperly installed EV chargers, which is a useful signal that they understand the electrical side rather than simply mounting a box.
22. ChargerPro — Pittsburgh
23. Best EV-specialist option I'd investigate.
24. Their Pittsburgh operation focuses specifically on Level 2 charging and says its licensed electricians handle the electrical assessment, installation and permitting.
25. I'd get a quote from them alongside a traditional local electrical contractor to see whether the EV specialization translates into a better price/scope.

A couple of particularly interesting options

Aspect Service Solutions is worth a quote if you own a Tesla. It identifies itself as an Elite Tesla Certified Installer and says it serves all of Western PA to Central PA, while also installing Level 2 chargers and 240V receptacles.

Rev Electric is another one I'd consider if you're in the western edge of PA near Ohio. It specifically serves Eastern Ohio and Western Pennsylvania, is a Qmerit-certified partner, and advertises Level 2 as well as bidirectional charging installations.

There's also a useful independent starting point: Pittsburgh Region Clean Cities maintains a residential EV-charger installer list of contractors that have indicated EV Level 2 installation experience, including Ferry Electric, Bruce & Merrilees, Dagostino, Hanlon, Hufnagel and others.

My shortlist by project

Your situation	I'd call first
Normal home Level 2 charger	Renaissance
Tesla Wall Connector	Renaissance / Aspect
Older house / questionable panel	Renaissance / Okot / Burke
Pittsburgh west / airport area	Parme / Burke / The Electrical Company
Westmoreland / Allegheny east	Okot / Renaissance
Detached garage / long wire run	The Electrical Company / Burke
Commercial or multiple chargers	The Electrical Company
Want an EV-focused specialist	ChargerPro
Western PA near Ohio	Rev Electric

One important point: don't choose solely on the advertised charger-install price. A good installer should perform a load calculation, verify panel/service capacity, determine whether hardwiring or a receptacle is appropriate, and handle whatever permits/inspection your municipality requires. A Level 2 charger can be a substantial continuous electrical load, and sometimes load management is a better solution than immediately upgrading the entire service.

If you give me your Western PA town or ZIP code, your EV model, and whether you already have a charger picked out (Tesla, ChargePoint, Wallbox, etc.), I can narrow this to the 3 best installers for your exact project and compare likely pricing/service areas.

• JAXSL electrical corp · 4.9★ · Electrician

If by “best cost per charger installed” you mean the lowest all-in commercial installed cost per port, rather than simply the lowest electrician labor rate, I’d shortlist these Pennsylvania providers.

The important caveat: most PA installers don't publish enough project-level pricing to honestly rank them by actual $/port. So the ranking below combines published scope, commercial capability, EV-specific credentials, and the likelihood of producing a competitive bid. Current PA workplace projects commonly land around $6,500–$11,000 per Level-2 port before incentives, with much lower numbers possible when the electrical service is already nearby and higher numbers when trenching/service upgrades are required.

My shortlist

Installer	Best fit	Cost/value outlook	Why I'd bid them
Charge Up Solutions	Central PA, small/mid-size L2	Excellent	EV-focused contractor; likely strong on straightforward multi-port work
Steel Fox EV & Electric	Central PA / State College	Excellent for smaller deployments	EV specialization and electrical work under one roof
JAXSL electrical corp	Eastern PA commercial	Very good	Explicitly handles commercial EV charging and electrical upgrades
Leer Electric	Central PA, multi-port/fleet	Very good	Qmerit and Tesla certified; handles design, infrastructure, permitting and multi-port projects.
Arrow Electric	Western PA / larger commercial	Very good	25+ years of electrical infrastructure experience, in-house crews, commercial/fleet charging and utility coordination.
Weinstein Electric	Philadelphia/Main Line	Good	Commercial, multifamily and parking-lot charging; handles PECO coordination, permitting and service upgrades.
Generac by CPI	Larger fleet/commercial projects	Good, especially turnkey	Designs, permits and installs fleet EV charging in PA with commercial electrical capabilities.
National Energy Solutions	Larger commercial/industrial	Potentially excellent net cost	Offers turnkey EV projects and even 100% project funding; useful for capital-constrained sites.

My top three for price competition

1\. Charge Up Solutions — I'd put them on the bid list for a Central PA project where you're installing several Level-2 ports. They're explicitly EV-focused rather than a general electrician that happens to install chargers.

2\. Leer Electric — particularly attractive if you're talking about 6–25+ ports, a fleet, or a workplace deployment. Their Qmerit/Tesla certifications and ability to handle infrastructure, permitting and utility coordination make them a stronger candidate for a competitive total project price rather than just cheap installation labor.

3\. Arrow Electric — probably the one I'd want competing for a larger Western PA project. Their 25+ years of electrical infrastructure experience and commercial/fleet focus reduce the risk that the “cheap” charger installer gives you an artificially low electrical bid and then adds change orders.

The bigger opportunity: optimize the net $/port

In Pennsylvania, installer selection isn't necessarily the biggest determinant of your final cost.

For example, depending on your utility territory, current programs can materially reduce the installed cost. PECO has commercial Level-2 incentives, while Duquesne Light can cover make-ready infrastructure for qualifying projects; Pennsylvania's AFIG program is also accepting 2026 applications.

That means I would evaluate bids on:

Net cost/port = (charger hardware + electrical installation + trenching + switchgear + permits + networking + commissioning − incentives) ÷ number of ports

rather than simply asking, “Who charges the least for installation?”

For reference, a PA workplace project with 6–10 Level-2 ports currently benchmarks around $42k–$95k total, or roughly $7,000–$9,500/port in many ordinary installations.

And a particularly favorable site can come in substantially below that if you have spare electrical capacity, short conduit runs, no trenching, and an incentive-paying utility.

One important 2026 wrinkle

Don't include the old federal 30C charger tax credit in a new-project comparison. It expired for property placed in service after June 30, 2026. PA state and utility programs are consequently much more important to the economics of projects starting now.

If you tell me (1) number of chargers, (2) Level 2 vs. DC fast, (3) approximate PA city/ZIP, and (4) whether this is workplace, multifamily, fleet, or public charging, I can narrow this to the 3–5 lowest-cost installers for that exact project and estimate a realistic $/charger target, including applicable PA utility incentives.

• Steel Fox EV & Electric · 5.0★ · Electric vehicle charging station contractor
• Charge Up Solutions · 5.0★ · Electric vehicle charging station contractor
• JDV Electric · 5.0★ · Electrician

If you mean independent, family/local electricians rather than national EV-installation chains, Pennsylvania has several that stand out on a combination of local ownership, EV-specific experience, and customer-review signals.

Strongest options

• Palmatier Electric — New Providence / Lancaster County. Probably my first call for a property owner in southeastern PA. It is family-owned, specifically markets EV charging, is Tesla- and ChargePoint-certified, and reports 100+ five-star reviews. A third-party review profile also shows 5.0/5 from 15 EV-installation reviews.
• Tommy's Electric — Gap / Lancaster County. A genuinely local contractor with a very strong overall review footprint (5.0 from 167 reviews in the business listing) and EV-charger installation among its services. It looks particularly interesting for homeowners who want a conventional local electrician rather than an EV-only company.
• Iddings Electric Inc — New Holland / Lancaster County. Family-owned, serving residential and commercial properties, with EV charging as a defined service. The company has operated since 2002 and has a BBB A+ rating.
• B.G. Electric — Marietta / Lancaster County. Family-owned and locally oriented, with a 5.0 rating from 41 reviews in the business listing. EV charging is specifically listed among its services, and customer feedback emphasizes the comfort of dealing with a small family business.
• Wildasin Electric — Glen Rock / south-central PA. Family-owned and husband-and-wife-run, with EV charger installation and a 5.0 rating from 55 reviews. It serves York, Adams and Lancaster-area customers.

Other PA companies worth getting a quote from

• Amp'd Energy Solutions — Quakertown / southeastern PA. Father-and-son, family-owned, Tesla-focused and particularly attractive if the project might also involve a Powerwall, panel upgrade or other energy work. Their own site includes a customer testimonial specifically praising a Tesla Wall Connector installation.
• Steel Fox EV & Electric — Central PA. This is one I'd consider if you want an EV specialist rather than simply an electrician who also installs chargers. It's family-owned/owner-operated, Tesla and ChargePoint certified, a Qmerit partner, and says it has completed hundreds of installs.
• Charge Up Solutions — Mount Holly Springs / Central PA. More EV-focused than the typical electrical contractor, including Level 3/DC-fast-charging work for businesses. The business listing shows a 5.0 rating, though the review count is still small.
• JDV Electric — West Chester / Chester County. Family-owned with a 5.0 rating from 192 reviews in the business listing and EV charging as a defined service.

If you're around Lancaster

I'd narrow the first round of quotes to Palmatier, Tommy's, Iddings, and B.G. Electric. There is unusually good local coverage here: Palmatier explicitly specializes in EV chargers, while Iddings, Tommy's and B.G. combine EV work with broader electrical expertise.

One useful independent data point: a current Pennsylvania installer directory identifies dozens of EV installers and cross-checks their EV-specific web presence against Google review counts; it lists several of the above among installers with strong overall ratings.

For a property owner, I wouldn't choose solely on star rating. I'd ask each bidder whether the quote includes the load calculation, permit, inspection, dedicated circuit, conduit/wire sizing, commissioning, and any panel/service upgrade. Those details matter considerably more than saving a couple hundred dollars on the installation.

If you tell me what part of Pennsylvania and whether this is a home, apartment/HOA, commercial property, or multifamily building, I can narrow this to the 5 best local installers for that specific property type, including review evidence and which ones handle commercial/multifamily charging.
