Home Charging

Your Garage Is Now a Fuel Station

More Adelaide households are making the switch to electric, and the difference between loving it and merely tolerating it usually comes down to home charging. Public chargers are fine in a pinch — but plugging in at home overnight, on your own off-peak rates, is what makes EV ownership genuinely effortless.

I install dedicated EV charging circuits and wall chargers across Adelaide — from Aberfoyle Park and the southern suburbs to the city and the eastern foothills. Every install gets a proper load assessment, correctly rated protection, and a Certificate of Compliance. No extension leads, no overloaded circuits, no shortcuts.

Why a Wall Charger

Powerpoint vs Dedicated Charger

2.3kW
Standard Powerpoint

Adds roughly 10–15 km of range per hour. A near-empty battery can take more than a full day to charge — and sustained loads on a shared circuit are working it hard.

7kW
Dedicated Wall Charger

Adds around 40–50 km of range per hour on its own protected 32A circuit. Plug in after work, wake up full — every single morning.

Got three-phase power? 22kW charging is possible where your supply and vehicle support it — I’ll confirm at the free site assessment.

How It Works

From Quote to First Charge

Site Assessment

Free on-site check of your switchboard capacity, existing loads, and the best charger location and cable route.

Dedicated Circuit

A new 32A circuit run from the board with EV-rated safety switch protection — never shared with other loads.

Mount & Wire

Charger mounted and hardwired neatly — concealed runs where possible, tidy conduit where not. Your choice of unit or ours.

Test & Certify

Full testing, load management configured, a walkthrough of the unit, and your Certificate of Compliance issued.

Straight Answers

Brands, Compatibility & Cost

I install all major Type 2 home chargers — Tesla Wall Connector, Zappi, Fronius Wattpilot and similar quality units. Supply-and-install, or I’ll fit a compliant charger you’ve already bought. Every EV sold in Australia charges from Type 2 at home, so the install works whether you drive a Tesla, BYD, MG, Hyundai, Kia or anything else.

Honest pricing: most single-phase 7kW installations land between $850 and $1,800 depending on switchboard capacity and cable run length. If your board needs an upgrade first, I’ll tell you straight and quote it separately — see switchboard upgrades. Every quote is free, written, and fixed before work begins.

Ask Jake
How much does EV charger installation cost in Adelaide?+
Most single-phase 7kW wall charger installations sit between $850 and $1,800 installed, depending on switchboard capacity, the cable run, and any protection upgrades. If your switchboard needs an upgrade first, I quote that separately and honestly. Every job starts with a free, fixed written quote.
Can I just charge my EV from a normal powerpoint?+
You can, but it’s slow — a standard 10A powerpoint delivers about 2.3kW, adding only 10–15km of range per hour. A dedicated 7kW wall charger adds 40–50km per hour, so overnight charging is realistic — and a dedicated circuit is safer for sustained high loads.
Which EV charger brands do you install?+
All major Type 2 home chargers — Tesla Wall Connector, Zappi, Fronius Wattpilot and similar. Supply-and-install, or I’ll fit a compliant unit you’ve already purchased.
Do I need a switchboard upgrade first?+
Not always. The free site assessment checks your board’s capacity and existing loads. Many modern boards take a dedicated 32A EV circuit without changes; older boards or heavily loaded homes sometimes need an upgrade first — I’ll tell you straight either way.
Will the charger work with my car?+
Yes — every EV sold in Australia uses the Type 2 standard for AC home charging, so a correctly installed wall charger works across Tesla, BYD, MG, Hyundai, Kia, Volvo, BMW and the rest.
How long does the installation take?+
A straightforward install — charger near the switchboard, easy cable run — is usually half a day. Longer runs or extra switchboard work can extend it to a full day. You get a Certificate of Compliance when it’s tested and done.
