Why install an EV charger at home or business

Charging your electric vehicle at home is faster, cheaper and more convenient than relying on public chargers. With a dedicated home or workplace charger you wake up to a full battery every morning, take advantage of off peak electricity tariffs, and skip the queues at public stations. For commercial sites, a workplace EV charger supports your fleet, attracts tenants and customers, and signals a clear commitment to sustainability.

An EV charger also adds practical value to your property. As electric vehicle uptake continues to climb across Australia, properties with EV charging infrastructure are becoming increasingly attractive to buyers and tenants.

Single phase or three phase EV charger installation

Choose the installation type that matches your power supply and how fast you want to charge.

Single phase installation suits most Australian homes on a standard residential supply. It pairs with our Plusrite Single Phase 7.4kW EV Charger and adds approximately 40km of range per hour of charging. This is the most cost effective option for everyday home charging.

Three phase installation is recommended for faster home charging and almost all commercial sites. It pairs with our Plusrite 22kW Three Phase EV Charger and adds approximately 120km of range per hour of charging. Three phase installs cost more because of the additional cabling, switchboard work and circuit protection involved.

Not sure which one suits your property? Make an enquiry with your address and a few photos of your switchboard, and our installer will confirm during the pre install site check. If your existing supply isn’t suitable, you’ll be told before any work or extra cost is committed.

What a typical installation includes

A typical Plusrite EV charger installation covers:

  • Pre install site assessment and safety check
  • Wall mounting your charger in your preferred location
  • Cable run from your switchboard to the charger
  • New dedicated circuit with a dedicated isolator switch and RCBO safety switch
  • Connection and commissioning to manufacturer specifications
  • Functional testing and a walkthrough of how to use your charger
  • Compliance certification lodged with the relevant state electrical regulator
  • 12 month workmanship warranty

For full details and to request a quote, see our EV Charger Installation Service page.

The installation process

Once you’ve sent your details, the process from enquiry to charging is straightforward.

  1. We confirm your details. Within one business day we’ll be in touch to confirm your address, your supply type and any access notes for the installer.
  2. Site check and quotation. Your assigned installer reviews your details, flags any additional electrical work and sends your quote. Once you accept it, they book an install date directly with you.
  3. Install day. A licensed electrician installs, commissions and tests your charger, then walks you through using it.
  4. Compliance and handover. You receive your compliance certificate and start charging.

Most installs are completed within 2 to 3 weeks, depending on your location and installer availability.

Cost of EV charger installation in Australia

  • Single phase installation: from $1,165 inc GST
  • Three phase installation: from $1,557 inc GST

Your quote will include any additional work your site needs, and nothing proceeds without your approval. Common extras include a weatherproof sub-board setup (may be required if your existing switchboard is full or the charger is far from the main switchboard), a switchboard upgrade, a longer cable run, double storey or non-standard properties (quoted on inspection), after hours work, and three phase supply upgrades. The full list of potential extras is on the EV Charger Installation product page.

State and federal rebates may also be available depending on where you live. Contact us if you’d like help understanding what’s currently on offer in your state.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a licensed electrician to install an EV charger?

Yes. EV chargers must be installed by a licensed electrician to meet AS/NZS 3000 wiring rules and your state’s electrical safety requirements. Plusrite installations are always carried out by licensed electricians through our trusted installer network.

How long does an EV charger installation take?

Most standard single phase installs take 2 to 3 hours. Three phase installs typically take 3 to 5 hours. Lead time from order to install booking is generally 2 to 3 weeks.

Do you install in my city?

Yes. We install across Australia, including Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Hobart, Canberra, the Gold Coast, the Sunshine Coast and most regional areas. Once you enquire, your job is matched to the installer best placed to service your postcode.

Can I install an EV charger myself?

No. Australian electrical regulations require any new circuit work to be completed by a licensed electrician. Self installation is unsafe, illegal in most states, and will void your warranty.

What about commercial, fleet or multi bay installations?

For commercial, fleet, multi bay and destination charging projects, please contact our team directly so we can scope your project. Our indicative pricing is for single charger residential and small business installations only.

Was a smooth process, the order arrived the next day. I got it installed with my electrician in 2 hours. The Charger is working without any issues. The 22kV charger is used for our new EV EQE 350 Mercedes Benz. The Z-Box app that comes with the unit is awesome and easy to setup on the phone.

Harness a quarter of the power of the sun for under $400!! These lights are solar powered which is perfect for charging during the day when you don’t need lights and are ready for keeping your camp lit 🔥!!! The lights are magnetic and can be removed to walk to the car or caravan. These are Awesome lights. Definitely speak to Ross or Warren for your lighting needs. I also bought additionally the Bluetooth speaker and a mozzie light. Good for twilight when cooking.

I purchased an EV charger from these guys last week. The whole experience has been great! Ross, who I think is the owner/manager was super helpful with product knowledge and tips before and after buying the unit. Highly recommended.

We visited their office after viewing video of Plusrite car charger. Ross explained how the charger works and showed us the one fitted at his office that he uses for his E car. We needed it for our Renault E tech. Ross was able to recommend an electrician to install and it works beautifully. Ross is happy to spend time with you and his experience with E cars means he has the answers to the questions you will have. Great product, fair price and really good service.

Amazing service. After ordering from Michael I expected the lights to take a week to get to Brisbane (like many items I buy from interstate suppliers), but no, these turned up the next business day. Well done.
