Electric vehicle charging point installation

What is an electric vehicle charging point?

An at home electric charging point is a small waterproof unit which is connected to the vehicle via a charging cable to enable home car charging.

How is the vehicle charging point installed?

The installation process involves wall mounting the vehicle charging point on an exterior wall or on a garage wall near where you park your car and connecting it safely to the mains electricity supply. Electric car charging points need to be professionally installed by a certified qualified electrician.

When you charge an electric car at home using a dedicated electric home charging point you benefit from faster charging speeds and built-in safety features.

An installation should take around three hours to complete however this can vary depending on the complexity of the installation and the individual requirements of the customer.

Government grant schemes are available to help towards the cost of your vehicle charging point installation for homeowners of flats and for people in rental accommodation (flats and single-use properties).
