EV Charger
An electric car charging station refers to a device that links an electric vehicle (EV) to a power source for the purpose of recharging electric cars, plug-in hybrids, and neighbourhood electric vehicles. One of the key factors in having an electric car is the convenient availability of a charging facility. Electric charging stations can be set up for individual or communal use, with a variety of options to choose from depending on your needs.

Types of Electric Vehicle Chargers
Level 1 EV Charger
It is typically included with electric cars and does not require installation. It can be plugged into any standard home outlet, but charging is slow and can take up to 20 hours to fully charge. It is best to use it overnight.
Level 2 EV Charger
Many electric car owners upgrade to a Level 2 EV Charger because it is more efficient and charges faster. However, you will need an electrician to install it as it requires a 240-volt circuit for a strong and steady current. A Level 2 charger can provide up to 70 miles of range or more per hour of charging.
Level 3 EV Charger
A significant number of property owners are unable to set up level 3 electric vehicle chargers due to their need for an industrial-grade power supply, which is not readily available in most residential settings. These chargers are exceptionally effective and can replenish up to 80% of an EV’s battery in just a few minutes, providing roughly 160 miles of additional driving distance per charge.

Frequently asked questions
What are the government grants for EV charger owners in London?
Starting from 1st April 2022, the Electric Vehicle Chargepoint Grant has taken over the Electric Vehicle Homecharge Scheme (EVHS). The primary distinction between these two grants is that the latest grant is exclusively accessible to individuals who reside in flats or those who are renting. The grant provides coverage for about 75% of the cost needed to set up an electric vehicle charging point, or it can go up to a maximum of £350 offered by the government.
Can I install my EV charger myself?
If you’re not a qualified electrician, it’s not recommended to install your own EV charger in the UK. In accordance with Building Regulations, a separate circuit is required for charging points, which only an electrician can install safely.
How long does it take to install a home-charging EV?
The installation of an electric car charger in your home requires 3-5 hours of work. If you require multiple charging points to be installed at your business location, it will inevitably take a longer period of time.
What are the legal requirements to install an EV charger at home?
To set up a charging unit for an electric vehicle in the UK, certain conditions must be met. These entail the presence of off-street parking facilities such as a drive, carport, or garage, being the legal owner of the property, or obtaining written permission from the owner. Additionally, one must ensure that the installation is executed by an accredited electrician.
