Before we install
Every installation starts with a check of your switchboard and supply. Many older Eastern Suburbs homes have small switchboards that were never designed for an EV charger. Sometimes a switchboard upgrade is needed first, and if so we will tell you upfront.
- Single-phase home chargers, typically up to 7 kW
- Three-phase chargers where your property has three-phase supply
- A dedicated circuit with the correct protection
- Load management, so the charger doesn't overload your supply
- Notification to the network, where required
Apartments and strata car parks
Many Eastern Suburbs residents live in apartment blocks with shared car parks. Installing a charger there usually needs owners corporation approval, and the circuit may come from your unit's meter or a common supply. We can provide a written scope and quote for your strata committee.
In terraces without off-street parking, a home charger may not be possible. If you have a rear lane garage, as many Paddington and Randwick terraces do, we will look at the cable route from the house.
Brands
We can install most common home chargers. If you have already bought one, send us the model before we visit.

EV Chargers FAQs
Will my switchboard handle an EV charger?
It depends on your board and your supply. We check this before quoting, and older ceramic fuse boards usually need an upgrade first.
Can I install an EV charger in my apartment building's car park?
Usually, yes, with owners corporation approval. We can prepare the details your strata committee needs.
How fast is a 7 kW home charger?
It adds roughly 40 to 50 km of range per hour of charging for most EVs, compared with about 10 to 15 km per hour from a standard power point.
