All-Electric charging at home

When it comes to charging your All-Electric car there are a range of options. Public rapid charging stations are great for a quick top-up when you need it, but quick and cost-effective charging is best done at home.

Charging made easy

There are several options for charging your All-Electric car at home. Each come with different advantages, but for most owners it makes sense to install a dedicated home charger. This gives you the ability to provide fast, convenient and cost-effective charging from a robust, secure unit. You can also plug straight into a regular AC home socket, but this is a slower way to charge and can end up costing more using peak energy rates.

FAQs about home charging

Do I need a special electrical setup at home for All-Electric vehicle charging?

Yes, you'll need a dedicated circuit and a compatible charging unit installed by a certified electrician. Electrasafe ensures a safe and efficient installation to meet your charging needs.

Can I monitor and control my home charging remotely?

Yes, many home charging units offer remote monitoring and control features through mobile apps.

What is Wallbox load management?

Wallbox load management is a feature of Wallbox EV chargers that allows you to control the amount of power that your charger draws from the grid. This can be useful for preventing overload and ensuring that your charger has enough power to charge your car at the desired rate.

How does Wallbox load management work?

Wallbox load management works by monitoring the power consumption of your home or business. When the power consumption reaches a certain level, Wallbox load management will reduce the power output of the charger. This will help to prevent overload and ensure that there is enough power for other appliances and devices.

Can I use Wallbox load management with my solar panels?

Yes, you can use Wallbox load management with your solar panels to optimise the use of solar energy for charging your car.

What is the typical charging time for an All-Electric vehicle using a Mode 3 charger?

The charging time for an All-Electric vehicle (EV) using a Mode 3 charger varies based on the charger's power rating and the capacity of the EV's battery. As a general guide, a higher power-rated charger, measured in kilowatts (kW), can deliver faster charging.

How fast can Electrasafe schedule the installation of my Wallbox charger?

Electrasafe understands the importance of a timely EV charger installation. Once you submit your request through our assessment form, their team strives to schedule a site assessment if the information provided is not sufficient. The duration between the assessment and the actual installation depends on various factors such as site complexity, accessibility, and the availability of required materials. We prioritise efficiency without compromising on the quality of our installations. The Electrasafe team aims to provide you with a realistic timeline during the assessment process.

What is the typical timeline from assessment to installation with Electrasafe?

The timeline from assessment to installation varies based on the factors mentioned earlier. On average, Electrasafe aims to complete the installation within 10 working days after quote is approved. However, this may be expedited or extended based on the unique circumstances of each installation.

Can Electrasafe provide an estimated installation date during the assessment?

Yes, the Electrasafe team will provide you with an estimated installation date during the assessment phase. This estimate takes into account the factors discussed, allowing you to plan accordingly.

What can I do to prepare for a faster Wallbox charger installation with Electrasafe?

To facilitate a faster installation, ensure that: 

   - Site access and access to the roof (if available) is clear and unobstructed. 

   - Any necessary permissions or approvals are obtained in advance. 

   - All relevant information about the site is communicated during the assessment. 

   - Download, install and sign up to the myWallbox application
