Tesla, Zappi, Wallbox, and more — we install home EV chargers across the Mornington Peninsula. Includes switchboard assessment and upgrade where needed.
📞 0418 383 232EV adoption is growing rapidly across the Mornington Peninsula — from Teslas in Mount Eliza to BYDs in Frankston, more Peninsula households are making the switch each month. A home EV charger (Level 2) is the essential companion — it charges your vehicle 5–7x faster than a standard power point and can integrate with your solar system to charge on excess sun power. Impulse Electrical installs EV chargers every week and knows exactly what's needed for a clean, safe, and future-proof installation.
☀️ Charge your EV with solar — and pay almost nothing per km
• Solar-integrated chargers like Zappi automatically use excess solar before drawing from the grid
• Most Peninsula homes with 6kW+ solar can charge during the day at minimal cost
• We can configure your EV charger to maximise solar self-consumption
• Pair with a home battery for even greater independence from grid power
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 price range. We provide a free quote that includes switchboard assessment — no surprises.
For most Peninsula homes, a 7kW single-phase Level 2 charger (like a Tesla Wall Connector, Wallbox Pulsar, or Zappi) adds around 40km of range per hour of charging — plenty for overnight charging. If you have three-phase power (or are upgrading), a 22kW charger is faster but rarely necessary for daily domestic use. Solar-integrated chargers like the Zappi are popular on the Peninsula for maximising solar self-consumption. We can help you pick the right unit.
Many older Peninsula homes need a switchboard upgrade before adding an EV charger — particularly if the board is full, uses ceramic fuses, or doesn't have a safety switch on the dedicated EV circuit. A modern switchboard with a dedicated 32A circuit is the correct installation. We assess your board as part of the quote process and will tell you upfront if an upgrade is needed and what it costs.
