For your safety, it’s advisable to entrust the installation of EV chargers to qualified and certified electricians. If you lack the required skills and training, attempting the installation on your own is not recommended. Instead, consider hiring a professional installer who can guarantee that the work is completed safely and accurately. This will provide you with peace of mind and help prevent any potential issues in the future.

The installation of EV charge points demands specialised electrical expertise and training. For this reason, it is crucial to engage a qualified and skilled electrician with experience in this field. Doing so will guarantee that the installation is performed safely and accurately, ensuring that your EV charging system functions smoothly and efficiently.

If you’re thinking about installing an electric car charger at home, you can anticipate spending approximately £500 to £1,000 for the installation of a standard 7kW home fast charger, in addition to the cost of the charger itself, which usually falls within the same price range. Some chargepoint providers offer package deals that combine both the charger and installation costs, making it simpler to plan your budget for EV charging.

One of the key benefits of home EV chargers is their rapid charging capabilities. Using a Level 2 charger, which generally operates at around 240 volts, you can fully charge your electric vehicle in only 4 to 6 hours. This is much quicker than standard public chargers, which can take several hours to complete a full charge. With a home EV charger, you can eliminate the inconvenience of waiting at a public charging station and enjoy the ease of charging your vehicle right from the comfort of your home.

Using a 7kW charger, the most popular type of home charger, you can fully charge your vehicle in approximately 4 to 8 hours. This allows you to charge your car overnight and start the day with a fully charged battery. If installing a dedicated home charger isn’t an option for you, you can still charge your vehicle using a standard 3-pin plug. Although this method is slower than using a dedicated charger, it serves as a convenient alternative if you lack access to a specific charging point.

When installing a new EV charger, it’s important to ensure that it’s connected to or located near your main fuse box. This means that the fuse box needs to have enough space inside it to make this connection possible. Also the fuse box would need to comply with the latest regualtions and have Type A 30ma RCD & Surge protection. If it doesn’t then its possible the fuse box may need replacing or a small fuse box for the EV Charger can be installed.
