Charging at home in Forestville

Good news for EV charging: garages here are usually generous and close enough to the board to keep the install simple.

An established 1960s village suburb with a mix of original and renovated homes. The common finding is a board that has been added to over the years rather than replaced, with a patchwork of circuit protection and no clear record of what feeds what.

Housing here is 1960s to 1980s brick homes on larger blocks, many backing onto bushland, and that is what decides the job: where the board sits, how far the car parks from it, and what the supply already carries.

What we run into in Forestville

Home EV charger installed at a Forestville house

What the price covers

The switchboard

A dedicated circuit with its own RCBO, sized for the charger and your supply. Not shared with anything else — a charger pulling full current for hours is not a powerpoint.

The cable run

Cable and surface conduit from the board to the charger, clipped and made good. Priced by the metre for the run you actually have, not a flat allowance that is wrong both ways.

The charger itself

Mounted, terminated, current limit set for your supply, commissioned and tested. Then the certificate of compliance, and the site left clean.

Picking the right unit

Whether it can genuinely use your solar, whether your car takes three phase, and whether the board has room. Those three answers pick the charger — not what is in the van.

We install Tesla Wall Connector, Zappi, Wallbox, Ohme, Evnex and other leading brands, and we will fit a charger you have bought yourself once we have confirmed it suits your supply. See the full EV charger page →

What is different about installing a charger in Forestville?

Good news for EV charging: garages here are usually generous and close enough to the board to keep the install simple. An established 1960s village suburb with a mix of original and renovated homes. The common finding is a board that has been added to over the years rather than replaced, with a patchwork of circuit protection and no clear record of what feeds what.

Will my switchboard need upgrading first?

Sometimes. A charger needs its own circuit with its own RCBO, and older boards with ceramic fuses and no safety switches often have no room for one. We check the board before quoting, and if it needs work you are told the price before anything starts.

Do I need three phase to charge at home?

No. A single phase 7.4kW charger adds roughly 35 to 50km of range an hour, which covers overnight charging for almost everyone. Three phase up to 22kW is faster, but only if the property already has three phase and the car can accept it.

How long does the installation take?

A straightforward single phase install is usually done in one visit of two to four hours, including testing and the certificate of compliance. Longer cable runs, switchboard work or strata buildings take longer, and we say so when we quote.
