Frequently Asked Questions
Question 1: How much does EV charger installation cost in Tarneit?
Installation costs vary depending on your setup, charger choice, and whether switchboard upgrades are needed. Most installations range between $1,500 and $3,500. We provide free quotes after assessing your property.
Question 2: How long does installation take?
Most EV charger installations are completed in one day, typically 3-6 hours depending on the complexity of the job.
Question 3: Do I need 3-phase power?
Not necessarily. Single-phase power is sufficient for most home charging needs, providing 7kW charging speeds. 3-phase power allows faster charging (up to 22kW) but isn't essential for overnight charging.
Question 4: Will my charger work with any EV?
Most chargers work with all EVs using the Type 2 connector (the Australian standard). Tesla vehicles can use Tesla Wall Connectors or universal Type 2 chargers with an adapter.
Question 5: Can I charge from my solar panels?
Absolutely. Smart chargers like the Zappi can prioritize solar charging, helping you maximize your solar investment and reduce charging costs.
Question 6: Do you handle council permits?
We manage all electrical compliance and certification. For most standard installations, council permits aren't required, but we'll advise you if your property needs one.
Question 7: Do Tarneit homes usually need switchboard upgrades for EV chargers?
Most Tarneit homes in new estates have enough capacity for a dedicated circuit. Some older pockets may require load management or minor switchboard upgrades — we confirm everything from your switchboard photos.
Question 8: How fast will my EV charge at home in Tarneit?
Most single-phase homes support up to 7.4 kW charging (around 35–45 km of range per hour). Some newer estates offer three-phase availability for up to 22 kW charging if your EV supports it.
