Home EV charger installation in Lees
- 01
Why not use a three-pin plug?
A normal socket can charge a car, but it's slow and isn't designed to run at full load for many hours, night after night. A home charger is several times faster, has protection built for the job and talks to the car, so charging stops safely when it's done.

Charging on a cheaper tariff
Many energy suppliers offer tariffs with cheaper electricity overnight. A smart home charger can be set to charge only during those hours, so the car is ready in the morning for less. We show you how to set a schedule in the charger's app before we leave.

Will my supply cope?
A charger draws a lot of power for hours at a time. We check your main fuse and the load from your other appliances. Most chargers can be set to slow down when the house is using a lot, so the main fuse isn't overloaded. Occasionally the supply needs upgrading first.
What to expect from a home EV charger installation
Before the visit, we ask for photos of your consumer unit, electricity meter and parking area, or we come and look. This lets us plan the cable route and check your supply. If your consumer unit needs work, we tell you at this stage and include it in the free quote.
On installation day, the power is off for a short time while we connect the new circuit. We mount the charger, run and clip the cable neatly, test everything and connect the charger to your Wi-Fi. You get a certificate, and we notify your network operator for you.

Home EV charger installation questions
How much faster is a home EV charger than a normal socket?
A typical 7kW home charger is around three times faster than a three-pin plug. That usually means a full charge overnight for most cars, rather than a day or more. The exact time depends on your car's battery size and how much it can take.
Can I get a home charger with an old fuse box in Lees?
Usually, yes, but the fuse box may need replacing first. An old board often has no space for a new circuit or lacks the protection a charger needs. We check during the survey and include any consumer unit work in your quote, so you know the full picture.
Where should my home EV charger go?
As close as possible to where you park, ideally on the wall next to your drive. The cable should reach your car's charging port easily without crossing a footpath. We also consider the route back to your consumer unit to keep the installation neat.
Do I need Wi-Fi for my home EV charger in Lees?
Most smart chargers connect over Wi-Fi so you can schedule charging and track use in the app. If your Wi-Fi doesn't reach the drive, some chargers can use a mobile signal or a wired connection instead. We check the signal during the survey.
