EV Charger Installation, in practice
The charger is the easy part. The question that decides the price is whether your panel has capacity and space for a forty or sixty amp circuit, and that is answered by a load calculation rather than by counting empty slots. Where there is no room, a load management device is frequently cheaper than a service upgrade.
Run length matters more than people expect. A charger on the far side of a detached garage needs larger conductors to hold voltage, and that is a material cost that belongs in the quote rather than appearing later.

Flickering Lights and When They Are Dangerous
Most flicker is harmless. The kind that is not tends to involve the whole house, more than one circuit, and a connection somewhere between the panel and the pole.

FAQ
EV Charger Installation — questions
Can my house handle a Level 2 EV charger?
Most can, and some need a service upgrade first. A Level 2 charger is a 40- to 60-amp circuit, which is a significant new load on a 100-amp service already carrying a range, a dryer and air conditioning. A load calculation says whether it fits; where it does not, a load-management charger or a panel upgrade is the answer, and knowing that before the charger is bought saves a second visit.
Where should the charger go?
Where the car parks, within reach of the cable, on a wall that has a straightforward run back to the panel. A garage wall near the panel is the cheap case; a detached garage or a driveway on the far side of the house needs a trench and conduit and costs accordingly. Outdoor installation is fine with a weather-rated unit.
