Is home EV charging right for your property?
Most Melbourne homes can support EV charging, but the right setup depends on electrical capacity, charger location, cable path & vehicle use.
This service is suited to:
Homeowners installing a dedicated EV charger
Garages, driveways and carports with practical cable access
Properties moving from slow charging on a standard power point to a faster dedicated setup
If the site is more complex, we’ll guide you to the right next step before scope and pricing are locked in.
What’s Included in a Home EV Charger Installation

Included items:
Dedicated EV charging circuit
Charger installation and mounting
Cable routing based on the property layout
Switchboard connection and protection upgrades if required
Testing, commissioning and compliance certification
• Safe • Compliant • Properly planned • Built for long-term use
