Bend drives more EVs per capita than almost anywhere in Oregon — and Manzanita Electric is the local, licensed crew installing Tesla, ChargePoint, Wallbox, and Grizzl-E Level 2 chargers in garages, carports, and shops across Central Oregon. Permitted, inspected, and built for high-desert weather.
Tell us about your vehicle and garage — we'll reply within one business hour.
A Level 2 EV charger is one of the best upgrades you can make to a Bend home, but a sloppy install can trip breakers, void rebates, or leave you charging at half speed. We do it the right way: we verify your electrical panel has the capacity, plan a tidy conduit run, pull the permit, and hand you a finished install that's inspected and ready for the long haul.
From a Model Y in a NorthWest Crossing garage to a Rivian R1T at a Tetherow shop or a Ford Lightning out in Discovery West, we've wired chargers across Bend's newer neighborhoods and high-desert builds. We know how Central Oregon's freeze-thaw cycles and detached-garage layouts affect a clean run — and we plan for them so your charger works flawlessly through January cold snaps and August heat alike.
Need the work done in Redmond instead? We cover that too — see our Redmond electrician page, or browse all of our electrical services.
Already bought a charger? We'll install it. Still deciding? We'll help you match one to your vehicle and panel.
We review your panel capacity, charger location, and conduit path — in person or from photos you send us.
You get an itemized, no-surprises quote with a timeline. If a panel upgrade is needed, we'll say so up front.
We pull the permit, run the dedicated circuit, mount and wire your charger, and keep the job site clean.
We schedule the inspection and confirm your charger delivers full rated power before we leave.
Every EV charger installation in Bend includes the details that separate a clean job from a code headache down the road.
We size the circuit correctly so your EV charges at its rated speed — not throttled by an undersized breaker or wire.
We pull the right permit with the City of Bend or Deschutes County and schedule the inspection so your install is legit and rebate-ready.
Detached garages, exterior runs, and freeze-thaw cycles get planned for — so your charger holds up year-round.
Not sure which charger to buy? We'll walk you through the options for your vehicle and panel — no upselling.
Clean trucks, clean conduit runs, clean job sites. We treat your garage the way we'd want ours treated.
Charger needs more power? We also handle panel upgrades, sub-panels, and load management — under one roof.
From the newest builds on the west side to garages and shops all over town, we install Level 2 chargers wherever you park.
"Installed our Tesla Wall Connector in the garage and it's flawless — clean conduit, charges at full speed, and they handled the permit. Quoted price was the final price. Couldn't recommend Manzanita more."
