More than a power point

The charger iseasy. The supplyis the real job.

A wall charger adds the biggest single load most houses have ever had. A lot of switchboards around Newcastle cannot take it without an upgrade, and some houses need three-phase to charge at the speed the owner is expecting. So we start at the board, not at the charger, and tell you honestly what your supply can do.

Then we fit a charger that suits the car and the house. Single-phase for most homes, three-phase where it is available and worth it, and a smart charger that can follow your solar so the car charges on your own power during the day, or on the cheapest tariff overnight. Chargers like the myenergi Zappi and the Fronius Wattpilot are ones we have installed around the region. The app gets set up before we leave.

  • Switchboard capacity checked first, upgraded if needed
  • Single-phase and three-phase chargers
  • Solar-diversion and off-peak scheduling configured
  • Chargers for workplaces, strata and holiday rentals

Good to know

EV chargerquestions,answered.

How fast will a home charger charge my car?

A single-phase 7 kW charger adds roughly 30 to 40 kilometres of range for every hour on charge, which fills most cars overnight. Three-phase chargers up to 22 kW are faster if your supply and your car can both take it.

Do I need three-phase power?

Not for most homes. A 7 kW single-phase charger is enough for daily driving. If you want faster charging, have two EVs, or are adding a big battery and ducted air conditioning at the same time, three-phase can be worth it, and as a Level 2 team we can do the supply upgrade ourselves.

Can it charge from my solar?

Yes. A smart charger can divert your excess solar into the car during the day instead of exporting it. If you have a battery as well, we set the priorities so the house and the car are not fighting over the same power.

Does it need its own circuit?

Yes. A charger is a large continuous load and needs a dedicated circuit with the right protection. We check whether the board can take it and upgrade it if it cannot, rather than overloading what is there.

Can I install a charger in an apartment?

Often, yes, with the owners corporation's approval and some load management. We assess the feasibility, provide the documentation the strata needs, and install it once approved.

What does it cost to charge at home?

A lot less than petrol, and less again if you charge from solar or on an off-peak tariff. We set the charger up so it charges when power is cheapest without you having to think about it.

Are there rebates for EV chargers?

Incentives come and go and vary by who you are and where you are. We tell you what applies at the time we quote rather than promising something that has closed.

Will my switchboard need upgrading for an EV charger?

Sometimes. Older boards around Newcastle often have no spare capacity or no room for the extra protection a charger needs. We check the board first and tell you before you commit, and if it does need work, our Level 2 crew does the board and the charger in one job.

Which EV chargers do you install?

We match the charger to the car, the supply and whether you want it to follow the solar. The myenergi Zappi and the Fronius Wattpilot are two we install often around the region. The brand, model and warranty are written on your quote.

Do you install chargers for businesses and fleets?

Yes. We install chargers for staff parking, fleet vehicles and customer car parks, with load management so the chargers do not overload the site supply. For bigger sites we look at three-phase capacity and the switchboard first.

Do you install EV chargers outside Newcastle?

Yes. The same team installs chargers across Lake Macquarie, Port Stephens, the Hunter Valley and the Central Coast, and the board check and quote work the same way wherever you are.

How long does a charger install take?

Most home installs are a few hours. If the switchboard needs upgrading or a three-phase supply is going in, it is longer and the timeline is on your quote.
