EV charger installation in Manchester
- 01
What the installation involves
We mount the charger on a wall near where you park, run a dedicated cable back to the consumer unit and fit suitable protection for the circuit. The charger is then set up, tested with your car if it's available, and connected to its app where needed.

Checking your supply first
Chargers draw a heavy load for hours, so we check your main fuse, earthing and consumer unit before quoting. Some homes need a small upgrade, such as a new board or extra protection, and your network operator may need to be told about the charger.

How long it takes
Most straightforward home installations are finished in around half a day. Longer cable runs, work through several walls or a consumer unit upgrade can add time. We'll confirm the expected timescale with your quote so you know how long the power will be off.
What to expect from an EV charger installation
Before the visit, we ask about your car, where you park and photos of your fuse board and meter if you can send them. On the survey visit we confirm the charger position, check the supply and give you a free, no-obligation quote.
On the day, the power is switched off while we connect the new circuit. We fit the charger, run and secure the cable, and test the installation. We show you how to use the charger, give you an Electrical Installation Certificate and handle the notification to your network operator.

EV charger installation questions
Do I need permission to install an EV charger at my Manchester home?
Most home chargers on a wall or driveway are permitted development, so planning permission isn't normally needed. Listed buildings, conservation areas and chargers next to a road can be different, so check if any of these apply. The network operator also needs to be told about the charger.
How much does EV charger installation cost in Manchester?
It depends on the charger you choose, the distance from the consumer unit to the parking space and whether the board needs any upgrade. A survey lets us price it properly. You receive a free, no-obligation quote before any work is booked.
Can you install a charger I've already bought in Manchester?
Usually, yes, as long as it's a recognised model that meets the UK smart charging rules. Let us know the make and model when you get in touch. We check it suits your supply and car before fitting, and the installation is tested and certified in the same way.
Will an EV charger trip my power in my Manchester house?
It shouldn't if the installation is designed properly. We check how much spare capacity your supply has, and many chargers can reduce their output when the rest of the house is using a lot of power. This load management stops the main fuse being overloaded.
