Serving Lanham, MD
When it comes to Lanham, in Prince George's County, electrical work, Charge Home Solutions provides home EV charging, Tesla Powerwall and battery storage, panel upgrades, generator installation, and licensed electrical repairs. Lanham anchors Prince George's County, where a growing base of about 10,500 residents is adding home EV chargers, battery backup, and EV-ready electrical panels.
Local conditions drive what homeowners need: humid summers and cold winters both raise electrical loads, and summer storms and winter Nor'easters make standby power popular across Maryland.
Solar-plus-storage is a natural pairing in Lanham: a battery captures daytime production and carries your home through evenings and outages, and we handle the electrical side end to end. EV-ready pre-wiring is the smart move for Lanham homeowners planning ahead, we run the conduit and capacity now so your future charger is a simple plug-in later.
Our local, licensed electricians handle the Prince George's County permit and inspection for you, and every Lanham project starts with a free in-home estimate and transparent, fixed pricing, backed by a workmanship guarantee of one year. We work with BGE, Pepco, and Delmarva Power.
In Lanham, service typically runs through BGE / Pepco / Delmarva Power. We size the panel and circuit to their standards, pull the Prince George's County permit, and check whether md ev charger rebate & evsmart can lower your out-of-pocket cost.
Older housing stock brings specific electrical needs: fuse boxes and 60–100A services that predate modern loads, aluminum branch wiring from the late 1960s, and panels from brands like Federal Pacific and Zinsco with documented failure histories. We identify these during any Lanham assessment and give you straight answers, repair, remediate, or replace, with real prices for each.
Standby generators remain the answer for extended outages: an automatic transfer switch starts the generator seconds after the grid fails and your Lanham home keeps running indefinitely on fuel. Sizing matters, essentials-only backup needs far less than whole-home with A/C, and our free assessment includes the load audit that gets it right.
Smart-home and low-voltage work rounds out what Lanham homeowners ask for: smart switches and dimmers (with the no-neutral solutions older homes need), hardwired ethernet that fixes 'bad Wi-Fi' at the source, PoE security cameras, and video doorbells with the transformer upgrades that keep them online.
The process in Lanham is deliberately simple. Your free in-home assessment covers the panel, the site, and your goals, and produces a fixed quote, not an estimate that grows. We handle the Prince George's County permit and the inspection scheduling, keep the work area clean, and walk you through everything before we leave. One accountable team from first call to final inspection.

Lanham, frequently asked questions
Most Lanham homes pay $400 to $1,500 for a Level 2 charger installed, including the dedicated 240-volt circuit, the Prince George's County permit, and inspection. Long wire runs or a needed panel upgrade raise it. Your free in-home assessment gives an exact, fixed price.
Most straightforward Lanham installs are finished in one visit of a few hours once the Prince George's County permit is in hand. We schedule around your day, protect the work area, and coordinate the inspection afterward.
Yes. Our Lanham electricians are Tesla Energy Certified, so Wall Connector installs are done to manufacturer spec and stay under warranty. We also install Tesla Universal Wall Connectors and every major J1772 and NACS Level 2 charger.
At Maryland's average residential rate of about 19.5 cents per kWh, home charging a typical EV costs roughly $55 per 1,000 miles, compared with about $118 in gas for the same distance. A typical overnight charge adding around 200 miles of range costs about $11.
Both are common in Lanham. A hardwired Wall Connector supports higher continuous output and is tidier for a permanent spot; a NEMA 14-50 outlet is flexible and lets you unplug a mobile connector. We size the circuit the same way for either and recommend the right one at the free assessment.
A 240-volt Level 2 charger adds roughly 25 to 44 miles of range per hour depending on your vehicle and circuit size, so most Lanham drivers wake up to a full battery after charging overnight. We confirm your panel can support the amperage before installing.
Yes, a dedicated 240-volt circuit requires a permit, and we file it with Prince George's County before work begins and coordinate the inspection after. You receive the documentation for insurance, warranty, and resale.
Often yes, with the property owner or HOA's approval. We are experienced with Lanham multi-unit and shared-parking situations, including sub-metering and load sharing, and we can provide the documentation an HOA or board asks for.
Not always. Many Lanham homes have spare capacity, and smart load management can often avoid an upgrade entirely. We run a real load calculation during the free assessment to confirm before installing anything.
A service upgrade to 200 amps typically runs $1,500 to $4,000 in Lanham depending on the meter, grounding, and local utility coordination. When an upgrade is genuinely needed it is usually one day of work and decades of headroom.
Likely yes. Fuse boxes, 60 to 100-amp services, aluminum branch wiring, and Federal Pacific or Zinsco panels have documented safety and capacity issues. We identify these during any Lanham assessment and give you straight repair, remediate, or replace options with real prices.
That is exactly what a load calculation answers. Humid summers and cold winters both raise electrical loads, so we plan capacity before pulling a single wire, and smart load management or a right-sized panel upgrade lets most Lanham homes run all of it safely.
Yes. Beyond EV and battery work, our Lanham electricians handle rewiring, panel and sub-panel work, dedicated circuits, generator hookups, surge protection, lighting, and code-correction repairs, all licensed, permitted, and inspected.
It is a code-based tally of everything drawing power in your home against your service size. It is how we know, with no guesswork, whether your Lanham home can add a charger or battery as-is or needs a circuit or panel change. It is part of every free assessment.
Yes. A Powerwall switches your essential circuits to battery automatically within a fraction of a second, and paired with solar it recharges during extended events. That matters here, where summer storms and winter Nor'easters make standby power popular.
Each Powerwall 3 stores 13.5 kWh and delivers 11.5 kW, enough to start air conditioning. One unit carries essentials through an overnight outage; two or three back up most Lanham homes completely. The load audit at your free assessment sizes it exactly.
A battery covers the frequent short outages silently and shaves peak-rate costs; a standby generator runs indefinitely on fuel for long outages. Many Lanham homeowners layer both. Our free assessment sizes the right answer to your actual loads.
A single Powerwall typically runs $11,000 to $18,000 installed before incentives in Lanham, and multi-unit systems scale from there. Maryland's EV charger rebate and EVsmart bill credits may bring that down. Our savings finder at /savings-finder/ checks your address for current programs.
Usually yes. We retrofit Tesla Powerwall and other batteries onto existing Lanham solar systems, handle the BGE / Pepco / Delmarva Power interconnection, and configure backup and time-of-use savings. We confirm compatibility with your inverter at the free assessment.
Maryland's residential rate averages about 19.5 cents per kWh, above the U.S. average of 17.3 cents, which makes a smart EV charger and a battery that shift usage to off-peak hours especially worthwhile here. A battery and a smart charger shift usage to the cheapest hours automatically, and we set the schedule up during installation so the savings are hands-off.
Lanham is generally served by BGE / Pepco / Delmarva Power. We handle the interconnection paperwork, metering, and permitting that come with adding an EV charger or battery on that system.
Maryland's EV charger rebate and EVsmart bill credits can lower your cost, and programs change often. The federal 25D and 30C credits have expired, so we focus on current state and utility programs and identify exactly what applies at your Lanham address during the free estimate. You can also check /savings-finder/.
Yes. The permit is filed with Prince George's County before work begins and the inspection is coordinated after, as part of every job. You never chase paperwork, and you keep the records for insurance, warranty, and resale.

Maryland's residential rate averages about 19.5 cents per kWh, above the U.S. average of 17.3 cents, which makes a smart EV charger and a battery that shift usage to off-peak hours especially worthwhile here.
