Tesla Wall Connector, Zappi, Wallbox and more. Home EV charger installation across the Peninsula — from Frankston to Portsea. Switchboard assessment and upgrade included where needed.
EV adoption on the Mornington Peninsula is accelerating. Teslas in Mount Eliza, BYDs in Mornington, Hyundai Ioniq 5s in Frankston South — more Peninsula households switch every month. A dedicated home Level 2 charger charges your vehicle 5–7× faster than a standard power point, and solar-integrated models like Zappi can charge your car almost entirely on free solar power. Impulse Electrical installs EV chargers weekly across the Peninsula and knows exactly what every property needs.
We install EV chargers throughout the Mornington Peninsula. High-demand suburbs include:

A Level 2 home EV charger (7kW single phase) installed typically costs $800–$1,800 including the charger unit and installation. If your switchboard needs upgrading to accommodate the additional load, add $800–$2,500. Tesla Wall Connectors, Wallbox Pulsar Plus, and Zappi chargers all fall in a similar range. We provide a free quote including switchboard assessment — no surprises on the day.
For most Peninsula homes, a 7kW single-phase Level 2 charger — Tesla Wall Connector, Wallbox Pulsar Plus, or Zappi — adds around 40km of range per hour. If you have solar, the Zappi is ideal: it automatically diverts excess solar power to charge your vehicle before drawing from the grid. For three-phase properties (more common in Mount Eliza, Frankston, and larger homes), 11kW or 22kW chargers are available. We'll recommend the right unit for your home and usage.
Many older Peninsula homes need a switchboard upgrade — particularly if the board is full, still uses ceramic fuses, or doesn't have a safety switch on the EV circuit. A dedicated 32A circuit from the switchboard to the garage is the correct installation. We assess your switchboard as part of every quote and tell you upfront whether an upgrade is needed and what it costs.
Yes. Solar-integrated chargers like the Zappi myenergi monitor your solar output in real time and automatically divert any excess generation to charge your EV — instead of sending it back to the grid at a low feed-in tariff. On a typical Peninsula day with a 6kW+ solar system, you can charge 20–40km of range for free. We configure and commission solar-integrated EV chargers as a standard part of installation.
All electric and plug-in hybrid (PHEV) vehicles sold in Australia use a standard Type 2 (Mennekes) AC charging port for home charging. This includes Tesla Model 3, Model Y, Model S, BYD Atto 3, MG ZS EV, Hyundai Ioniq 5, Kia EV6, Polestar 2, Volvo XC40 Recharge, and all others. Tesla Wall Connectors also use Type 2. There is no compatibility issue with any current Australian-market EV.
For a straightforward installation — charger on an existing dedicated circuit or short cable run — typically 2–3 hours. If a new circuit needs to be run from the switchboard to the garage, allow half a day. If a switchboard upgrade is also needed, allow a full day. We'll give you a realistic timeframe when we quote.
Yes — always. Every new electrical circuit installation (which is what a dedicated EV charger circuit is) requires a Certificate of Electrical Safety under Victorian law. Your electrician is legally required to issue this within 7 days of completing the work. If a tradesperson installs your EV charger and doesn't offer a CES, that's a red flag.
