Is my home suitable?

Where would the charger go?

Do you have off-street parking?

Do you know your supply?

What we would look at

A wall-mounted charger is the usual choice for a driveway or garage. We check your supply, earthing and consumer unit, then agree the best position and cable route.

Not sure about your supply? We check it before agreeing the work.

Assessing the site

  • Checking where you park and the best position
  • Looking at the supply, earthing and consumer unit
  • Planning the cable route
  • Explaining anything that needs upgrading

Installing

  • Fitting the charger securely
  • Running a dedicated cable on its own circuit
  • Adding the protection the charger requires
  • Making good where cable passes through walls

Testing and handover

  • Testing before it is used
  • Setting up the charger and any app
  • Providing the certificate the work requires
  • Showing you how to use it

Before a charger goes in, the consumer unit is checked to make sure it can take the extra load.

Questions

Most can, but the supply has to be suitable. We check before agreeing the work.
