Mountain View โ home to Google โ has some of the highest EV ownership rates anywhere in the United States. The housing mix ranges from post-war bungalows near Castro Street (100-amp panels, careful DPM assessment needed) to newer townhome and condo developments near Shoreline. One consideration unique to Mountain View: the city has a higher proportion of rental housing than neighboring cities. California AB 2565 gives tenants the right to install EV charging in their assigned parking โ and ChargeWizards has navigated multiple landlord-tenant and HOA approval processes here. The City of Mountain View Building Division processes most EV permits in 7โ14 business days.
Permits in Mountain View go through the City of Mountain View Building Division, which typically processes EV charger applications in 5โ14 business days.

We schedule the final inspection on your behalf and you don't need to be home for it.

ChargeWizards has installed ev charger for condos & hoas in homes across Mountain View โ from single-family homes and condos with 100A panels to newer construction with 200A service. Every install includes a free pre-quote panel assessment (so we never quote a panel upgrade you don't need), the city permit, dedicated 240V circuit, mounting, commissioning with the charger app, and final inspection coordination. Our owner is on every job โ no subcontractors, no rotating crews. CSLB C-10 #1134931, fully licensed and insured.
Real install: A San Francisco condo customer needed a 130 ft conduit run from the building's electrical room to parking stall #85. ChargeWizards drafted the HOA application, shepherded it through the board, pulled the DBI permit, ran the conduit cleanly along the garage ceiling, installed a dedicated sub-meter, and secured a $5,000 utility rebate that offset most of the install cost. The unit owner now charges overnight at off-peak rates without sharing electricity with neighbors.
