Home EV charger installation in Manchester
- 01
Choosing the right home charger
Most home chargers are rated at 7kW, which adds around 20 to 30 miles of range per hour on many cars. Tethered chargers have the cable fixed on, while untethered ones use your own cable. We help you pick a model that suits your car and driveway.

Charging on an off-peak tariff
Many energy suppliers offer cheaper electricity overnight for EV drivers. A home charger can be scheduled to start when that cheaper rate begins, so your car is full by morning without you having to remember to plug in late at night.

Protecting your main fuse
A charger running alongside an electric shower, oven and heaters can push a home's supply close to its limit. Chargers with load management watch your total usage and slow down when needed, so the main fuse isn't overloaded and the power stays on.
What to expect from a home EV charger installation
We start by looking at where you park, the route from your consumer unit to the charger position and your main fuse rating. We talk through tethered and untethered options and any extra features you want, then give you a free, no-obligation quote.
On installation day, we fit the charger, run the cable neatly along the house or through the garage and connect it to its own protected circuit. Once tested, we pair the charger with its app, walk you through using it and leave you the certificate.

Home EV charger installation questions
Is a 7kW home charger enough for my car in Manchester?
For most drivers, yes. A 7kW charger can fully charge most electric cars overnight, which covers typical daily driving around Manchester. Faster 22kW chargers need a three-phase supply, which most homes don't have, so 7kW is the usual choice for houses.
Tethered or untethered: which home charger is better in Manchester?
It's down to preference. A tethered charger has the cable attached, so you just plug in. An untethered charger looks neater and works with any car using the right cable. If you change cars often or want a tidy wall, untethered may suit you better.
Can I have a home EV charger on a terraced house in Manchester?
Yes, if you have off-street parking such as a drive or rear yard next to the house. The charger needs to be close to where you park, and the cable must not cross a public pavement. We check the cable route on the survey visit.
Can a home charger use solar panels on my Manchester house?
Some can. Several home chargers have a solar mode that charges your car with spare power from your panels before using electricity from the grid. If you have solar or plan to fit it, tell us and we'll suggest a charger that supports it.
