When Is EV Charger Installation Necessary?

If you’ve recently bought or plan to buy an electric vehicle, it’s best to install a dedicated EV charger at home as soon as possible. While a standard power point might work short term, it charges much slower and isn’t designed for long, high-load sessions. A proper wall-mounted charger is safer, faster, and more efficient. It’s also a smart move if you're building new, upgrading your switchboard, or want to future-proof your home for resale or a second EV in the future.

Installing an EV charger starts with assessing your home’s electrical system to ensure it can safely support the charger’s power needs. This might include a switchboard upgrade or circuit addition. Once approved, the charger is mounted, usually on an exterior wall near your parking spot and wired directly to your switchboard. The installation typically takes a few hours and includes testing to ensure everything operates safely and efficiently. After installation, you’ll get guidance on how to use your new charger and any maintenance tips to keep it running smoothly.
