EV charger installation

Charging from a 3-pin plug is slow, and an extension reel is not made for hours at full load. A 7 kW wall charger on its own circuit charges about three times faster, safely, every night.

Questions

How much faster is a wall charger?

A 3-pin plug gives about 2.3 kW. A 7 kW charger is about three times faster, so most cars fill up overnight.

Do I need a new consumer unit?

Sometimes. We check your board and earthing on the survey and tell you before you book.

Can I get a government grant?

Grants are only paid through OZEV-authorised installers, and they depend on your home. Tell us if you plan to claim one and we will explain your options before you book.

Do I need off-street parking?

Yes. The charger and its cable have to stay on your property. Cables cannot run across a pavement.
