EV charger installation in Lees
- 01
Choosing where it goes
The charger should sit close to where you park, so the cable reaches the car's charging port without stretching across a path. A short cable run back to the consumer unit also keeps the job simpler. We look at a few spots with you and agree the best one.

Tethered or untethered
A tethered charger has its own cable fixed to it, so you just unhook it and plug in. An untethered charger has a socket, and you use the cable that came with your car. Tethered is handier day to day, while untethered looks neater and suits more than one type of car.

Notifying the network
Your local electricity network operator has to be told when a charger is fitted, and some installations need approval first. This is part of our job. We check your main fuse and supply during the survey and send the right form, so you don't have to deal with it.
What to expect from an EV charger installation
We start with a survey, either on site or from photos of your consumer unit, meter and parking spot. We check the size of your main fuse, how much spare capacity you have and the cable route. You then get a free quote covering the charger, the circuit and any upgrades needed.
On the day, we fix the charger to the wall, run a dedicated cable to the consumer unit and fit the right protection. We test the circuit, set up the charger and its app, and show you how to start a charge. You receive a certificate, and we notify the network operator.

EV charger installation questions
How long does an EV charger installation take in Lees?
A straightforward home installation usually takes around half a day. It can take longer if the cable has a long route, goes through several walls or needs to run underground. If your consumer unit needs upgrading first, that adds time, and we explain this at the quote.
Can any electrician fit an EV charger in Lees?
The work needs a qualified electrician who knows the specific regulations for charge points, including the earthing arrangements outdoors. As an NICEIC registered electrician, we install, test and certify the circuit, and we handle the notification to your network operator so you don't have to.
Do I need permission to fit an EV charger on my house?
Most homes don't need planning permission for a wall-mounted charger at a driveway, but there are limits for listed buildings and some conservation areas. Your network operator also needs to be told. We'll let you know if anything about your property needs checking first.
What affects the cost of EV charger installation in Lees?
The main factors are the charger you choose, the length of the cable run, how many walls it passes through and whether your consumer unit or main fuse needs upgrading. We survey first and give you a clear quote, so there are no surprises on the day.
