We ask the following for all new installations - but don't worry if you can't answer all questions, our experts will conduct a full survey before starting work:
- Do you have private off-street parking to install your EV charge point, where the cable will not run across a public footpath? (please send a photo)
- Confirm that you have strong mobile or WIFI signal at the install location
- Confirm the size of your main cut-out fuse (located in the electricity meter box on your property. This is normally on the outside wall or under-stairs (please send a photo)
- Do you have a looped service? (please send a photo)
- Your MPAN number (meter point reference number)
- Do you have main bonding to your gas and water supplies? (please send a photo)
- Is there space in your existing consumer unit / fuse box? (please send a photo of the existing consumer unit and the space surrounding it).
- Where do you need the charge point located?
- Will the charge point be located within 10 metres of the consumer unit? Specify the approximate distance (please send a photo). Runs of over 10 metres are possible but will incur additional cost.
In most cases we can still carry out the installation of your charger. We will assess the extra requirements needed and provide a no obligation quote for the additional works.
It may seem obvious, but the charger should be sited where you park your EV, this could be a private driveway to the side or front of your property, or garage. When positioning, think about where the cable plugs in to your car (is it at the front, side, at the back?) and how you intended to park your car - do you prefer to reverse or drive in-to your driveway? Lastly, think about where the cable will lay when connected to your car. Ideally the cable shouldn't present a trip hazard, or block gates/access.
