Installation

What happens on install day, cable routing, standards and compliance.

Installation — home EV charging on the Sunshine Coast

A compliant install is a dedicated, protected circuit, tested and certified — most jobs take half a day.

What this topic covers

  • Site assessment

    We check switchboard capacity, cable route and parking position, usually from photos.

  • Standards and compliance

    Work follows AS/NZS 3000, including Section 7.9, and is tested and certified.

  • Cable routing and finish

    Runs are kept short and concealed wherever practical.

  • Commissioning

    The charger is energised, tested, updated and scheduled to your tariff before we leave.

Key facts

  • EV chargers require their own dedicated circuit.
  • RCD protection is mandatory on every installation.
  • Typical installs take three to five hours, longer with a board upgrade.
