EV Charger Installation in Wollongong & the Illawarra

Charge your EV properly at home — dedicated circuit, Level 2 AC charger, smart or standard. Full install with upfront pricing and compliance certificate included.

Stop Relying on a Standard Power Point to Charge Your Car

A standard 10A power point trickle-charges most EVs at around 10–15km of range per hour — which means overnight charging still leaves some vehicles short. A dedicated Level 2 AC home charger runs on a 32A circuit and delivers 7–22kW of charging, giving you a full charge overnight every night. We install the charger, run the dedicated circuit, and connect it to your switchboard safely — with all required compliance certificates for your insurer and the manufacturer’s warranty.

EV Charger Questions

Do I need a dedicated circuit, or can I use an existing power point?
A standard power point works in a pinch but isn’t designed for continuous high-load charging — it’s a safety and efficiency compromise for daily use. A dedicated 32A circuit on a separate breaker is the correct approach, and it’s what most EV manufacturers recommend for home charging.
 
It depends on your vehicle, whether you want scheduling and monitoring features, and your budget. Smart chargers with app control and solar integration have come down in price and are worth considering if you have or plan to install solar. We can walk you through the options.
Yes — longer cable runs just need to be sized correctly to handle the load without voltage drop. We account for this in the quote so your charger performs as it should.
