WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY
YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED
FAQs
How long does EV charger installation take in Christchurch?
Most home EV charger installations are completed within half a day. If your switchboard needs upgrading or additional electrical work is required, the installation may take a full day. We provide a clear timeframe during your quote so you know what to expect.
Do I need a switchboard upgrade for an EV charger?
Not always, but many older Christchurch homes require a switchboard upgrade to safely support EV charging. During our initial assessment, we check your switchboard capacity and advise whether an upgrade is needed before installation can proceed.
What type of EV charger is best for home use?
For most households, a Level 2 (7kW) charger provides the best balance of charging speed and cost. This typically adds around 40-50km of range per hour of charging, enough to fully charge overnight. We can recommend specific chargers based on your vehicle and driving patterns.
Can you install chargers for all electric vehicle brands?
Yes. We install EV chargers compatible with all major vehicle brands including Tesla, BYD, Hyundai, Kia, MG, Polestar, BMW, and others. We can also advise on charger features like smart scheduling, load balancing, and app connectivity.
How much does EV charger installation cost in Christchurch?
Installation costs vary depending on your charger choice, switchboard requirements, and cable run distances. Most standard home installations range from $1,500 to $3,000 including the charger unit. We provide a detailed quote after assessing your property so you know the exact cost upfront.
