Switching to an electric vehicle is a smart move—but without a proper home charging setup, you might not get the most out of it. A professional EV charger installation in Scarborough gives you a safe, fast, and reliable way to power your car right from your driveway.
At All Point Electrical, we install EV chargers for homes across Scarborough and North Yorkshire. If you’re new to EVs or unsure what the installation involves, here’s a straightforward breakdown of what to expect.
Step 1: Initial Consultation and Site Survey
We start by asking a few questions about your home, vehicle, and charging habits. This helps us recommend the best type of charger for you, whether it’s a standard 7kW unit or a smart charger with extra features.
Then we’ll arrange a site survey. We’ll inspect your consumer unit (fuse board), check your existing wiring, and assess the best location for the charger on your driveway or garage wall.
Step 2: Choosing the Right Charger
There are a few different charger types and brands available. Some offer simple plug-and-go functionality, while others let you monitor energy usage or schedule charging during off-peak times via an app.
We’ll explain the pros and cons of each EV charger installation and help you choose a model that suits your budget, lifestyle, and energy needs.
Step 3: EV Charger Installation Day
On installation day, our qualified electricians arrive with everything needed to do the job safely. We’ll:
- Install the charger on the wall in your chosen location
- Run a dedicated power supply from your consumer unit
- Fit any protective devices like an isolator or surge protection
- Test and certify the installation for safety and compliance
We’ll also tidy up and walk you through how the charger works before we leave.
Step 4: Safe, Reliable Charging at Home
With your charger installed, you can enjoy fast, efficient home charging without relying on public points. Charging overnight is convenient and cost-effective, especially if your energy tariff offers cheaper rates at night.
Most home chargers will fully charge your EV overnight, so you’re ready to go in the morning—no more waiting in line at petrol stations or public charging points.
