EV Charger Installation Hampshire | JD Power Electrical Ltd

Home EV charging

Charge at home with a properly installed smart charger

Charging from a three-pin plug is slow and puts a heavy, continuous load on a socket that was never designed for it. A dedicated home charger is faster, safer and lets you charge when electricity is cheapest.

We install wall-mounted smart chargers for homes across Hampshire. Before we fit anything we check your consumer unit, earthing arrangement and supply capacity, so the charger works safely alongside everything else in your home. You get a neat installation, a full electrical certificate and a quick walk-through of the charger app.

What is included in an EV charger installation

Every installation follows the same careful process, whether you drive a small city car or a large SUV.

Free survey and advice

We look at where you park, where the supply comes in and the best route for the cable before quoting.

Smart 7kW charger

Most homes suit a 7kW single-phase charger, which adds roughly 25 to 30 miles of range per hour of charging.

Dedicated protected circuit

A new circuit from your consumer unit with the correct RCD protection for EV charging.

Earthing checked

We assess your earthing arrangement and add earth protection where the charger needs it.

Certificate and notification

Testing, an Electrical Installation Certificate and notification to the local network operator where required.

App set-up

We connect the charger to your Wi-Fi and show you how to schedule charging on cheaper overnight tariffs.

Is your home ready for an EV charger?

Most houses with off-street parking can have a charger fitted. These are the things we check during the survey:

Off-street parking such as a driveway, garage or car port
Space in your consumer unit, or whether an upgrade is needed first
Your supply capacity and main fuse rating
The earthing arrangement at the property
The cable route from the consumer unit to the charger
Wi-Fi signal where the charger will be mounted

How it works

Simple, clear and no surprises, from your first call to your certificate.

Survey and quote

We visit or review photos of your property and give you a clear, fixed quote.

Installation

Most home chargers are installed in around half a day, with minimal mess.

Testing

The circuit and charger are tested and you receive your certificate.

EV Charger Installation FAQs

A standard installation usually takes around half a day. Longer cable runs, or a consumer unit that needs upgrading first, can add time, and we will tell you about this in your quote.

Yes. Home chargers installed in Great Britain must have smart functionality, which lets you schedule charging and take advantage of cheaper off-peak tariffs.

We need a safe, legal place to charge, which normally means off-street parking. Trailing a cable across a public pavement is not something we can install. If you are unsure, send us a photo and we will advise.

Not always. Many modern consumer units have space for an extra circuit. Older fuse boards may need replacing to provide the right protection, and we will check this during the survey.
