Discuss Still not installed EV yet !! in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

Break it down on quote to 1)Install 2)Commissioning as each charger slightly different. The zappi whilst able to cover the majoirty of installs can require a few settings and configuring ct clamps to get it to work.
Its more expensive but my favourite of late is the Simpson & Partners. I am so busy I tell customer to order the unit then i will fit once here.
In short allow an hour for commissioning and compliance as per smart charger regulations and ENA/DNO compliance which covers you for the notification, app set up amongst other things.
Add a clause on quote if you havent been able to guarantee there is good wifi that you may need to install a wifi extender at additional cost (cost of extender + 20% and say half hour on top)
Thanks Gavin... appreciate your help.

They (Simpson & Parters) do look decent quality and design what's the final set up like simple enough ?
 
Having 2nd thoughts about Zappi already !!
Currently on hold to customer service @ 43mins, what a load of crap 🤯
Tried email and also raised a support ticket but getting no where.

Have completed 'authorised sub-contractor' form online but had few queries.
Anyone else help me out maybe:
  1. Is there a dedicated technical help number for installers (that takes less than 43 mins to get through!) ?
  2. What are main benefits of becoming 'authorise sub-contractor' - longer warranty if so how much longer ?
  3. What are main benefits of becoming 'authorise sub-contractor' - cheaper price on units ?
Cheers Sy

Really easy, despite a metal cover the wifi chip is top notch. settign up is really easy, download app, click installer menu and enter installer pin which S&P provide. then you can test RCM, PEN loss etc and set up ct clamp either wired or wirless similar to harvi/zappi but signal much better.
Customer sets up wifi in the app interface they have and it is really easy to use
