Why can't I install my own EVSE without the services of an electrician. I would get the Leviton kit, EVSE unit, 20 amp breaker, liquid tight flex conduit, wire and fittings. I would draw up my plans and get the permit to do my own work, then have it inspected. With a little research, I can figure what I need and how to do it. Its not rocket science. I'm a DIY and in my line of work I design, test, field service multi-kilowatt power supplies for industry and research. I'm fully versed with electricity. In my mobile home park, I've seen and experienced a lot of shody work done by real electricians. I feel I could do a better job with this project than what most electricians would do. After all it will be inspected before the breaker is turned on. I live in the City of Hayward, California and wonder if the city has provisions for doing this.
