Checking Your Supply First

A charger draws a steady load for hours, so the incoming supply, the main fuse and the board are all checked before anything is ordered. That tells us whether a standard 7kW unit will run happily or whether the charge rate needs limiting.

More Information

Choosing Where the Charger Goes

The unit has to sit where the cable reaches your car without crossing a path. We look at where you park and which side the charging socket is on. A shorter run back to the board also keeps the install tidier and cheaper.

Testing and Handover

Once the unit is up we test the circuit, check the earthing arrangement and run the charger to confirm it delivers full current. Then we set up the app with you and show you how to start a charge and schedule one for off peak hours.

Frequently Asked Questions

What speed charger can I have at home in Accrington?

Most homes take a 7kW single phase unit, which adds roughly 25 to 30 miles of range an hour. That fills nearly any car overnight. Faster units need a three phase supply, which is uncommon in houses but normal on commercial sites.

Do I need planning permission for an EV charger?

For a normal home install, no. Wall mounted units on a house or in a car park fall under permitted development in most cases. Listed buildings and conservation areas are the exception. We will flag it if your property looks like one of those.

Will an EV charger work with solar panels?

Yes, if the unit supports it. Some chargers watch what your panels are exporting and charge on that alone, or top up from the grid when the sun drops. Tell us at the quote stage and we will match the unit to your setup.

About us

EV charger work sits between electrical installation and car technology, and both halves have to be right. We treat the charge point as a dedicated circuit with its own protection, test it like any other, and hand over the certificate with it. Free quotes and same day response apply here too.
