What affects EV charger installation cost?
Charger type & speed
7kW single-phase chargers are standard for homes. 22kW three-phase chargers are faster but require a 3-phase supply. DC rapid chargers (50kW+) are for commercial/public use.
Cable run distance
The distance from your consumer unit to the charger location affects cost. Longer runs need more cable and may require additional containment or groundwork.
Electrical supply capacity
If your supply cannot handle the additional load, you may need a supply upgrade or a load management device. We check this during the survey.
Consumer unit condition
Older consumer units may need upgrading to meet current regulations. We identify this upfront so there are no surprises.
Smart features
Basic chargers are cheaper. Smart chargers with app control, tariff scheduling, solar integration and load management cost more but save money long-term.
OZEV grant eligibility
The Workplace Charging Scheme covers up to 75% of purchase and installation costs (capped at £350 per socket, up to 40 sockets). We handle the paperwork.
Home EV charger installation: typically £800 – £1,500
Commercial multi-bay installations vary by scope. We provide a detailed quote after your free site assessment.
Common EV charger mistakes
Choosing a non-smart charger
Basic chargers cannot schedule charging for cheap overnight rates or integrate with solar. A smart charger pays for the price difference within months through tariff savings.
Not checking your electrical supply
Adding a 7kW charger to an already-loaded supply can trip your main fuse. We always assess your supply capacity and recommend load management or upgrades where needed.
DIY or unqualified installation
EV charger installation must comply with BS 7671 and IET guidance. Incorrect installation can void your charger warranty, your car warranty and your home insurance.
Ignoring future needs
If you might get a second EV or switch to a larger vehicle, plan for it now. Installing cabling for a second charger during the first install is much cheaper than retrofitting later.
