The process of Commercial EV charger installation in Christchurch involves working with a commercial electrician to calculate load capacity and selecting EV chargers offering the right charging speeds.
The average cost of EV charger installation at commercial premises ranges from £1,500 - £3,500 but this might not include additional charges such as the cost of any groundwork you might need. Carmichael Electrical Services took the lead on a recent project close to Somerford Business Park, Christchurch.

What is involved in commercial EV charger installation Christchurch?
A site survey is the best first step as we can establish exactly where EVchargers can be installed, calculate the premises load capacity and whether the consumer unit or distribution board needs upgrading. We notify the DNO to make sure the new electrical load is accounted for. Carmichael Electrical Services use initial consultations with clients to establish the charger speed you want to offer, typically this ranges between 7kW- 2kW. We help businesses arrange any groundwork to be conducted prior to installation. As with all our projects, strict commissioning of the commercial EV chargers takes place once completed to confirm compliance with regulations. Clients such as the business at Somerford Business Park, Christchurch are issued with an EIC as legal evidence of compliant work.
