I am looking to install an EV home charger for one vehicle, but possibly two in the future.
I have a second unused (but still active) mains supply cable from a time when we had electric heaters. Unfortunately the separate meter on this supply was removed a few years back. It would seem to be...
If you can install in a detached garage, then you can use the house earthing system (PME). Wishful thinking ! Can you install it inside the garage and run charging cable through the wall or can you install it on the outside wall of the garage?
Evening everybody.
A Landlord who's pub I do a bit of work in called me today to discuss putting an EV Charger in for customer use.
His idea was to charge £x for 60mins. I vaguely remember that Rolec had a token operated EV Charger but I'm not sure if they still make it. A fair bit of Google...
Hi there, new to the forum and in final stages of completing C&G level 3; need to complete design project to complete. Am struggling to get my head around how to draw up correct circuit diagram showing EF Loop path for EV charger where initial supply is described as 'three phase TNCS' feeding to...
Hi, I Bought a 32A EV Charger, it comes with a CEE wall plug. I need to use it with a 60A range recepticle which I use to plug in my welder. So obviously I need to change the CEE plug into a Range plug. There is no paperwork, no schematic. As the CEE has 3 wires Red, Black and Yellow/green...
Hi!
I’d like to install a pedestal-mounted (230 V, 30 A max - programmable) EV charger close to my driveway, which ends about 12 feet away from the house, on the other side of a landscaped rock wall of sorts. While I am at it, I would like to oversize the circuit to allow a second EV charger to...
A bit of an embarrassing question.
I have a regular customer who I enjoy working for. He has asked me to install an EV rapid charger for his avant loader (electric tractor type thing). I always turn down 3 phase jobs as I don't feel I understand it fully, but I'd like to do this job.
I believe...

I'm looking at installing a plastic distribution board to feed a 3 phase vehicle charger. I've never been clear on whether flats being present in a building automatically make the rest of that building count as domestic or not. My understanding of 421.1.201 is that it does.
The install...
I want to install a wall mounted toothbrush charger alongside a washbasin in a bedroom. Depending on what turns out to be the easiest option for routing the cable I intend to either wire this into the lighting circuit, which is protected in the CU by a 6A circuit breaker or take a spur off the...
Hi all,
Will have to apologise for asking basic questions but would rather be sure.
I have got an EV charger circuit to be fit in an upgrade consumer unit. The wall connector features built-in RCD Type A + DC 6mA so it is not required to install RCD type B. The board will be 100A main...
Has anyone experienced any issues with getting a good enough signal for the customer to be able to use the smart features on a Rolec Wallpod Homesmart charger? Installed recently, it is fitted just inside someone's garage but for some reason the signal strength isn't strong enough for the...
Hi
Thanks for providing the forum...
Wonder if anyone here knows the regs on the installation of a 7Kw car charger, in so far as where it can be placed.
My indoor consumer unit, has a 7K shower in it, upgrated by housing assosiation they fitted rcd on lights...
Im thinking its too far away...
Hi all. Will have to forgive me for enquiring about basic question but would rather be sure of all considerations than not. Went to view property for potential EV install yesterday. On viewing intake of property I realised supply had been converted from PME to a TT supply. I'm unsure why they...
Has anyone installed a Walbox EV Charger with a Power Meter to enable the Power Boost option? It's installed but there doesn't seem to be any way of confirming that the Wallbox is talking to the Power Meter. I spoke to Wallbox and they couldn't help.
I am very confused by this charger. The yellow LED in on, Battery Conditioning.
What does that mean?
Battery is fully charged, I think after 30 minutes. The yellow LED is still on.
Makita needs to provide better documentation.
Their lead blower runs out of juice on high after about 15...
I have just installed the ohme 7.4kW home pro EV charger.
I plug the car in and it starts charging at 7.4kW, then slowly the charge drops. Perhaps over the space of 45 minutes it has gradually decreased down to around 2.5kW.
There is no CT clamp attached so no load balancing. It is also not...
Hi All,

The unit has a light that should light up when plugged into the power socket however this doesn's light up and no power goes to the battery. I have...
