EV Charger Installers Newcastle
Home and business EV charger installation across Newcastle, Lake Macquarie and the Hunter. Licensed electricians handle the switchboard, wiring and final commissioning.
EV chargers need a licensed electrician to run a dedicated circuit from your switchboard to the charger location, check your supply capacity, and handle the Ausgrid paperwork for installations over 20A.
We install all common Wallbox, Tesla, ABB, Fronius, EO and OCPP-compatible chargers. Most homes are a half-day job. If you already have solar or a battery, we can wire the charger so it prioritises self-consumption — charging the car off your own panels rather than the grid when possible.
Newcastle-area switchboards in houses built before the early 2000s often need an upgrade or a load-management device before a 7kW+ charger can be added safely. We check that up-front during the free quote rather than discovering it mid-install.

Common questions
How much does an EV charger install cost in Newcastle?
A standard single-phase 7kW home charger installation is typically $1,500–$2,500 including the charger, depending on distance from switchboard and whether any switchboard upgrade is needed. Three-phase 22kW installs sit in the $2,800–$4,500 range. We quote fixed prices after a free site visit.
Do I need a smart charger or a simple socket?
For occasional charging a tethered outdoor socket works, but a proper wall-mounted smart charger pays back quickly — scheduled off-peak charging, solar-sync features, and load management that protects your switchboard from overload.
Can the charger prioritise solar energy?
Yes, if you have compatible solar or a Sigenergy/Tesla-class inverter. We wire the charger so it can see when your solar is exporting and divert that energy into the car instead. Typical setups save 40–70% of charging cost vs grid.
Will my existing switchboard handle a charger?
Most post-2005 switchboards will, with an RCBO added for the new circuit. Older boards, or homes already close to their supply capacity, need either a switchboard upgrade or a load-management device. We check this before quoting.
