Is my home suitable for an EV Charger Installation?
One of the first questions Amersham residents ask when they are considering an EV charger installation is “Is my home suitable for an EV charger installation?” For most, the answer will be a simple yes and for others whilst the answer will still be positive, it may be that there are additional steps to take first.
Before answering this question your EV charger installer Amersham will need to know whether:
- You have off-street parking – You will need to have a dedicated driveway or garage where your EV can be safely parked whilst charging, without creating a hazard to others. Unfortunately, EV chargers cannot be installed, or used, where they cross over a public right of way such as a footpath outside your home.
- You are the homeowner – Or have written permission from your landlord if a tenant.
- Your electrical system is suitable – Your Amersham homes electrics, and in particular your fuseboard, will need to be capable of handling the extra load of the EV charger. If your current fuseboard isn’t suitable, then an upgrade may be necessary as part of the installation process.
Home EV Charger Benefits
There are many benefits to an EV charger installation at your Amersham home, from lower charging costs to increased property value. For most EV owners the biggest benefit is undoubtably convenience. Once your EV charger installer has completed your installation, you’ll be able to charge your vehicle from the comfort of your home. No more trips out to find a public charging station, no more planning routes home from work that include a stop to top up for the next day’s commute. You’ll be able to just plug in your EV once you’re home for the day and it’ll be fully charger by the morning. Simple.
Choosing an EV Charger Installer Amersham
Once you’ve decided that a home EV charger is right for you, you’ll need to choose an EV charger installer. You’ll need to find a qualified electrician who has experience in installing EV chargers and is registered with a competent person scheme. This means they have demonstrated their ability to carry out such work with a high degree of competence and are able to self-certify their work for building control purposes. It’s also a good idea to check out their reviews to see what others have to say about the quality of their work.
If you consider yourself a bit of a DIY expert you may be wondering if you can carry out the installation yourself. The answer to this is absolutely not! Only a qualified electrician should carry out the installation. It is a large and complex job, and any errors can leave you at risk of serious injury and your home at risk of electrical fire.
