EV charger installation

Charger installs need a load assessment on the switchboard and may need distributor notification.

What this covers

Dedicated circuits and wall chargers for home EV charging.

Do this first

  • Keep clear of sparking fittings, burning smells or water near electrics.
  • Do not keep resetting a safety switch or breaker that trips immediately.
  • Note which rooms lost power and photograph the switchboard if it is safe.

No power, a hot switchboard or a new circuit? Tell us what is happening. Request an electrician
