Davis County, Utah
EV Charger Installation in Kaysville, UT
Kaysville owns its own electric utility, Kaysville City Power, and that changes the EV conversation more than most homeowners expect. Rocky Mountain Power programs you may read about online, like Wattsmart Drive and the Schedule 1 time-of-use rate, generally do not apply to Kaysville City Power customers.

What that means for a Kaysville install
Kaysville's housing is mixed: about 30% predates 1980 and about 38% is 2000 or newer. So whether you need a panel upgrade really is a home-by-home question, and a quick load calculation answers it.
- Kaysville City Power bills residential customers on tiered rates. Per the city's published schedule, the price per kWh steps up after the first 400 kWh and again after 1,000 kWh. There is no time-of-use rate to chase, so the real savings come from a correctly sized circuit, not from a charging schedule.
- If a service or meter upgrade is needed, the disconnect and reconnect are coordinated with Kaysville City Power rather than Rocky Mountain Power. Ask your electrician to build that lead time into the schedule.
- Kaysville's homes split fairly evenly between pre-1980 neighborhoods near the historic downtown and newer subdivisions, so panel capacity varies street by street.
Across Davis County, 7,660 battery-electric vehicles were registered as of February 2026, and Kaysville accounts for about 12% of them.[2]
Kaysville City Power: what it means for EV charging
Most Kaysville homes buy power from Kaysville City Power, the city's own utility, not Rocky Mountain Power.[3][4] The city's published residential rate has an $11.25 monthly customer charge plus tiered energy: 9.948¢ per kWh for the first 400 kWh, 10.441¢ for the next 600 kWh, and 12.080¢ beyond that.[5]
That means Rocky Mountain Power's Wattsmart Drive credit and its Schedule 1 time-of-use rate generally don't apply here. An EV's monthly energy usually lands in the upper tiers, so plan your budget on roughly 10¢ to 12¢ per kWh. Confirm the utility name on your bill, since addresses near city borders can differ.
Permits and inspection
The electrician pulls the electrical permit through Kaysville City's building process, and the work is inspected before it's energized. Utah adopted the 2023 National Electrical Code effective July 1, 2025, and most one- and two-family homes follow the electrical provisions of the International Residential Code as amended by Utah.[6][7] Current code requires GFCI protection for many EV outlets; your electrician will confirm exactly what your install needs.
