    Ev Charger: Tesla charger by installing a commando socket

    Yes guys just a quick one. A friend of mine wants me to connect up an old Tesla charger by installing a commando socket and then a commando plug from the Tesla charger to the socket. Now do I need a pen fault system as it’s not a tt system ? Cheers guys

    EV Charger reporting PEN Fault

    This is a baffling fault I've been fighting with for a couple of weeks now, so I wondered if another set of eyes will help. I installed an EV Charger a few weeks back, and all went well for a while, then the client called me to say it wasn't charging randomly. Resetting it brought it back to...

    should i choose a 40 amp portable EV charger or and 40 amp EV wall charger?

    Hey everyone, I'm in the market for a 40-amp EV charger, but I'm stuck on whether to go with a portable one or a wall-mounted one. Does anyone have experience with both? What are the true pros and cons of each? Thanks! Here are the two models I’m considering.

    UK Meter box too congested!

    Hi, I’m just looking for some advice on what can be done. I wouldn’t be touching any of it myself! We are trying to be unlooped and have a fuse upgrade as we have two electric car chargers but northern power grid is now unwilling to do the work due to our meter box being congested! Would we just...

    EV charger install

    Can the wiring go from the fuse box to a certain distance in the roof space, then exit the roof space via the eaves, then travel in conduit along the outside wall, to an EV charger? Or does the wiring need to go from roof space to wall cavity? It's an odd arrangement, and traveling outside will...

    UK 32A or 40A breaker for 7kW EV Charger

    I note that in answer to another EV Charger question a member suggested a 40A breaker would be preferred to a 32A because of many hours at continuous full 7kW load. I am not an electrician but understand the reasoning. I have a 7kW charger (which generally runs full load for a continuous 5 hours...

    EV charger cable in wall cavity

    I would like to hide the cable to an EV charger. The consumer unit, meter cabinet and charger would all be on the same wall. About 5 metres from the charger to the meter box or 6m to the CU. It's an external wall without insulation. Would 6mm NYYJ in the wall cavity be acceptable? It would be...

    EV charger issue - Garo PME trips

    Hi. Not sure if it's the right place to ask, so won't be upset if it gets removed. Apologies if the terminology (PEN/PME/etc) is used inaccurately. I had an EV charger installed in December on my detached garage by a local electrician. The charger is one that doesn't have a PEN fault detection...
