What's involved
A check of your consumer unit and incoming supply for capacity, a dedicated circuit run to the charging position, an RCD of the right type for the charger, and the charge point itself fixed to the wall or a post. Smart chargers connect to your Wi-Fi so charging can be scheduled for off-peak tariffs.

Earthing and the supply
Chargers used outdoors have their own earthing rules, and many homes on a PME supply need either a charger with built-in open-PEN protection or a separate earth electrode. Part of the job is working out which applies to your house and doing it properly.
“George completed fitment of an EV charger at my property.He was competitive on price,answered phone calls and messages in a prompt manner,somewhat lacking with some companies.All in all, great job and was tidy in the process”
Notifying the network
A new charge point has to be notified to the electricity network operator. For most homes that's a form we submit as part of the installation. If the supply or the main fuse needs upgrading first, that's raised before any work starts, because the network operator does that side.
Tethered or untethered
Tethered units have the cable fixed to the charger, so it's always there. Untethered units have a socket and you use your own cable, which keeps the wall tidier and suits a change of car. We fit whichever suits you, and can advise if you haven't chosen.
