    Requirements to Install EV Chargers

    I think this is the right place to post. Up until now I've steared clear of installing EV Chargers, mainly because as a Self Employed Sparky I've not been able to compete with the national companies. However I'm getting enquiries from my client base asking to install EV Chargers, so I'm going...

    EV chargers installed direct to meter box - is it really wrong?

    On another forum for general EV chat this question comes up all the time. It's very common to install a charger taking the supply direct from the meter box via a secondary box and suitable protection installed within the meter box. Reasons to do this appear quite sensible: 1) Often far easier...

    UK Selectivity : What does it mean specifically, especially in relation to EV chargers

    Hi all, been reading around this and i have to admit ive quickly gone out of my depth as regards EV chargers. The charger in question is a Myenergi zappi which has its own internal RCD and PEN protection. So, the usual method it seems, is to fit another small consumer board and install a DP...

    Hi all. After some guidance. Got a customer who’s looking at installing 8no. 22kW EV charging points. The intake / supply is deemed only to be 160A. Is there anything on the market to load balance the whole install rather than at each EV point? I believe he has been at some chargers but are...

    EV CHARGERS - OZEV OR UK EMISSIONS TRADING REGISTER OR BOTH?

    Hi there, I posted on a different forum last week and got no advice, so I thought I'd try here. My electrician nephew is being inundated with EV Charger requests. He's fully qualified and has NICEIC accreditation too. I registered him for Ozev, but if I'm honest I don't understand it. Should...

    EV Charging - Using DC chargers to charge a fleet

    Assuming a large company needed a large EV charging infrastructure for its fleet to be electrified. Would it be best to just go straight for 150kW chargers? And if so, what would be the ideal setup (cable sizes for 150kW, connection to grid, load balancing, other equipment that might be needed)...

    EV chargers and double pole RCD's.

    So regulation 722.531.3.1 says RCD's shall disconnect all live conductors. Is this requirement met if the charger itself contains a DP RCD? As presumably there is no reason that the installed circuit requires a DP RCD? in fact depending on cable type and install methods the cable may not need...

    Any EV chargers that work without internet?

    I am quoting for a EVCP install. The location is too far from the house to get a signal from the router. I realise I could go down the route of installing an outside socket and plugging in an extender but the customer doesn't want to do this. They are quite happy to plug there vehicle in and...

    3-core (rather than 2-core) SWA requirement for EV chargers...?

    Eh up :) A client (also a friend of mine) bought a new electric car, and it came with "free charger install" by Podpoint. As it's not a simple job getting power from the service head/DB (under the stairs, in the middle of the house, with solid floors) to the detached brick garage (approx 50m of...
