Common questions about ev charger installation in Brighton East
What type of EV charger should I get in Brighton East?
For most homes, a 7kW single-phase charger is ideal — it fully charges most EVs overnight. We assess your electrical capacity and recommend the best option for your situation.

A straightforward EV charger installation typically takes 3-4 hours. If switchboard upgrades are needed, it may take a full day.
Can I charge my EV from a regular power point?
