A Charge Point Is an Electrical Installation, Not an Accessory

A poorly installed home charger is a fire and safety risk, not just an inconvenience — which is why it needs to be treated as the electrical installation it actually is.

We assess your existing consumer unit and incoming supply before recommending a charger, since not every property can simply have a 7kW unit added without upgrades elsewhere. Where the supply needs reinforcing, or the consumer unit needs a dedicated circuit adding, we do that work as part of the same job rather than leaving you to find a separate electrician afterwards.

Most of our installations are 7kW untethered or tethered wall units, mounted either on the house wall or a dedicated post where there's no suitable wall nearby. We handle the full process: site survey, DNO (electricity network) notification where required, installation, and commissioning.

If you're considering solar panels and battery storage as well, a charge point and a solar/battery system are often installed together, or planned with each other in mind — see our solar PV and battery storage page for more.

EV Chargers, Done Properly

🔌

Site Survey

We check your consumer unit, cable route from the meter, and where the car will actually be parked before recommending anything.

  • Supply capacity check
  • Cable route planning
  • Charger position agreed with you on site

Installation

Chargers are installed to the manufacturer's specification and current wiring regulations, with a dedicated circuit and appropriate earthing arrangement for the property.

  • 7kW tethered or untethered units
  • Wall-mounted or post-mounted options
  • Dedicated circuit breaker and RCD protection
📋

DNO Notification

Some installations need to be notified to your electricity network operator before or after work — we handle this so you don't have to work out which category your installation falls into.

  • DNO notification handled on your behalf
  • Compliant with current charge point regulations
  • Smart charging functionality where the unit supports it
🧾

Certification & Handover

You get full electrical certification for the installation, plus a walkthrough of how to use the charger and its app, if it has one.

  • Electrical Installation Certificate issued
  • App and smart-charging setup explained
  • Aftercare support if anything needs attention

Frequently Asked Questions

Can any house have an EV charger fitted?

Most can, but the answer depends on your existing electrical supply and consumer unit. We check this at the survey stage — occasionally a property needs a consumer unit upgrade, or less often a supply upgrade from the network operator, before a charger can be fitted safely.

Do I need permission from my electricity network to install a charger?

Some installations need to be notified to your local Distribution Network Operator (DNO), either before or after installation, depending on the charger’s specification. We handle this notification as part of the job.

How long does installation take?

A standard domestic 7kW charger installation usually takes half a day to a full day, assuming no additional consumer unit or supply work is needed.

What’s the difference between a tethered and untethered charger?

A tethered charger has the charging cable permanently attached; an untethered one has a socket that you plug your own cable into. It’s mostly personal preference, though untethered units are slightly more flexible if you might change car.
