Frequently Asked Questions

How much does EV charger installation cost on the Mornington Peninsula?

Every installation is different — the cost depends on your switchboard, the distance from the board to the garage, whether a new circuit is needed, and which charger you choose. We provide a free quote including switchboard assessment so you know exactly what's involved before we start. Call 0418 383 232 for a no-obligation quote.

Which EV charger is best for a Mornington Peninsula home?

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.

Do I need a switchboard upgrade before installing an EV charger?

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.

Can I charge my EV using solar power?

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.

What vehicles are compatible with a home Level 2 charger?

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.

How long does EV charger installation take?

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.

Is a Certificate of Electrical Safety issued for EV charger installation?

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.
