Why Install an EV Charger at Home?

Charging your electric vehicle at home comes with numerous benefits:

Convenience: With a home EV charger, you can charge your vehicle overnight or anytime it suits you, without needing to rely on public charging stations.
Cost Savings: Charging your EV at home is typically cheaper than using public charging stations, and you can take advantage of off-peak electricity rates to reduce costs further.
Increased Home Value: As electric vehicles become more mainstream, having an installed EV charger can increase the appeal and value of your property.
Environmentally Friendly: Home charging lets you control your energy sources, especially if you have solar panels, reducing your reliance on fossil fuels.

Choosing the Right EV Charger for Your Home

Selecting the right EV charger is crucial to ensure that it meets your needs and functions efficiently. At North Lakes & Surrounds Electrical, we help Brisbane homeowners make informed decisions by considering factors such as the type of vehicle, the home’s existing electrical system, and future-proofing options. Here are the two main types of residential chargers we install:

Level 1 EV Chargers

Level 1 chargers are basic models that plug into a standard electrical outlet and provide a slow charge, often referred to as “trickle charging.” These chargers are ideal for plug-in hybrid vehicles or as a temporary solution for fully electric vehicles. While they may take longer to charge your car, Level 1 chargers are easy to install and can be a cost-effective solution if your driving needs are minimal.

Level 2 EV Chargers

Level 2 chargers provide significantly faster charging speeds compared to Level 1 chargers. These units are hardwired into your home’s electrical system and typically deliver between 7kW to 22kW of power, meaning a full charge can be achieved in just a few hours. For fully electric vehicles or homeowners who need faster charging, Level 2 chargers are a great investment. North Lakes & Surrounds Electrical specializes in installing these chargers to ensure maximum efficiency.

Our EV Charger Installation Process

At North Lakes & Surrounds Electrical, we strive to make the installation process as smooth as possible. Here’s what you can expect:

Consultation and Charger Selection: We’ll start by assessing your needs, reviewing the make and model of your vehicle, and recommending the best charger for your situation. We’ll also take into account your budget, home’s electrical infrastructure, and future EV needs.
Home Electrical Assessment: Our team will inspect your existing electrical system to ensure it can handle the additional load of an EV charger. In some cases, an upgrade to your switchboard may be necessary to support higher charging speeds.
Approval from Energex: Before installing your charger, we’ll ensure that it complies with local energy provider regulations. Energex, Brisbane’s electricity supplier, has set limits on the power draw of EV chargers, and we’ll work with them to secure the necessary approvals.
Installation and Testing: Once the prep work is complete, our licensed electricians will install the charger, making any upgrades to your system as needed. We’ll test the unit to ensure it’s working correctly and provide guidance on how to operate your new charger.

Three-Phase EV Charger Installation for Faster Charging

For homeowners who require faster charging or have more than one electric vehicle, a three-phase EV charger may be the best option. Three-phase chargers can deliver more power than standard single-phase units, allowing for faster charging times—often charging a vehicle from 0 to 100% in just a few hours.

North Lakes & Surrounds Electrical is experienced in installing three-phase chargers for Brisbane homes and businesses. Not all properties or vehicles are compatible with three-phase charging, but we can assess your home’s electrical system and provide recommendations based on your unique needs. If you’re considering a three-phase charger, we’ll ensure that your property meets the requirements and handle the installation with expertise and care.

Future-Proof Your Home for the Growing EV Market

As electric vehicles become more prevalent, investing in an EV charger is not just a convenience but also a smart way to future-proof your home. Whether you’re planning to add more EVs to your household or simply want to make your property more appealing for future buyers, installing a high-quality EV charger adds value to your home.

For homes with solar power, we can also integrate your EV charger with your solar system, maximizing energy efficiency and reducing your reliance on grid electricity. This environmentally friendly solution allows you to charge your vehicle using clean energy directly from the sun, reducing your carbon footprint and saving money on your electricity bill.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Super friendly, helpful service from the first phone call through to their workshop. We needed 2 x15amp extension leads tested and tagged, they did a great deal. They may be based in North Lakes but they've got their vans set up ready to hit the road to your home and work. We had such a good experience. We can't recommend them enough for all electrical needs.

I'm big on good customer service from woe to go and quality of workmanship is an absolute must. I have no time for arrogance and treating people like they're idiots. If we all knew everything, you wouldn't be needed = your loss. If these things matter to you too, choose North Lakes and Surrounds Electrical like we did. 😄Sounds like an ad for them. Just a new customer who is sick of the bad service out there and we found a gem that's all.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We've used North Lakes & Surrounds Electrical for a few years at our property in Mango Hill and they've always been fantastic. We recently had them decommission and upgrade lights and fixtures throughout our house as well as upgrade our ceiling fans. Have also had them install multiple appliances on previous occasions. All of the staff, from booking and quoting through to doing the work, are a pleasure to work with and the completed work is thorough and reasonably priced. Highly recommend!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had Adam come out today to install new LED wall lights at our front door and replaced the last of our old Halogen downligths with new LEDs.

He did an amazing job, explained everything and provided recommendations on some fixes moving forward.

Would happily recommend the team if you need electrical work done.
