Electric Vehicle Charging

As an electric or hybrid car owner, having an EVCP (electric vehicle charging point) installed at your home or business can have many benefits, such as:

• Saving money on fuel costs by charging your car at cheaper off-peak electricity rates.
• Reducing your carbon footprint and environmental impact by using renewable energy sources to power your car.
• Increasing your convenience and flexibility by charging your car whenever and wherever you need it.
• Enhancing your safety and security by avoiding public charging stations that may be crowded, damaged, or vandalised.
• Improving your vehicle performance and battery life by maintaining a consistent and optimal charging level.

However, installing an EVCP is not a simple DIY project. It requires a qualified engineer who can:

• Assess your electrical capacity and wiring to ensure that the EVCP is compatible and safe for your home or business.
• Install the EVCP according to the relevant standards and regulations, such as the Safe Electric Registered Electrical Contractor scheme.
• Configure the EVCP to communicate with your smart meter, vehicle, and network provider to enable smart charging features.
• Test the EVCP functionality and performance to ensure that it works properly and efficiently.

Therefore, having an EVCP installed by a qualified engineer is essential to ensure that you get the best value and experience from your electric or hybrid car.
