Can I run the charger off an existing circuit?

No. It needs its own circuit back to the board with its own protection. Sharing a circuit with anything else is neither safe nor allowed, and it would make the charging slower anyway.

Is a newer house easier to fit a charger to?

Usually. The board tends to have capacity and an attached garage keeps the run short. We still check the board properly, because newer does not automatically mean there is a spare way.

Can I just plug my car into a normal powerpoint?

You can, with the portable charger most cars come with, but it is slow and it was never meant to be the everyday solution. A wall charger on its own circuit charges far faster and does not tie up a general power circuit for twelve hours at a time.

What is the difference between 7kW and 22kW charging?

A 7kW charger runs on single phase, which is what most homes have. 22kW needs a three phase supply. Three phase is worth asking about if you have it, but for overnight charging at home a 7kW unit covers most driving comfortably.

Do you install chargers for businesses?

Yes. Workplace charging starts with what supply the site actually has spare, because multiple chargers can add up quickly. We look at that before recommending anything.

Newer Home, Still Worth Checking

A modern board usually copes with a charger, but newer does not automatically mean there is a spare way or the right protection. We check rather than assume, which is the difference between a smooth install and an awkward morning.
