Home Charger Installations
The installation of home chargers can be complicated but, here at Chargebase, we aim to make installing your charger as easy for you as possible. But what does installing an EV charger into your home involve? Here is an overview to the five main steps in your installation…
Charger Installation
This involves fitting your charger to your wall and running up to 10 metres of safe and immensely strong armoured cabling to your consumer unit (‘fuse box’). The cabling is typically routed along your home’s outside walls.
Connecting To Your Home
Your charger connects to your consumer unit. This is where your main electricity supply splits up to power everything from your lights to your cooker. If there is a space to do so the connection is made and a suitable safety cut off device is fitted by us. If not, you will need a Mini Consumer Unit installed to allow us to connect your charger safely.
Earth Rod
Some homes require the fitment of an earth rod up to 1 meter in length. Almost every home needs one of these as an additional level of safety. Remember: your charger will carry up to a third of your total electricity supply when charging so safety is paramount.
Anything Else?
Yes…
- We will complete all your paperwork (16 pages) to enable you to benefit from the government’s / OLEV’s EV charger grant subsidy of £350.00.
- We will guarantee your charger and installation for 3 years.
- All our chargers meet strict government regulations and safety standards.
- You’ll receive an electrical certificate for your EV charger installation.
One Last Thing…
We are not only a specialist EV charger installation company, we are also a home and commercial electrical company. Because of this, often our customers ask us to undertake additional electrical work in their homes whilst we install their chargers. If you would like any additional work completed by us please let us know.
