Just picked up an electric car? The first thing most people realise is that plugging into a standard powerpoint isn't really a long-term solution. It works, but it's slow. A dedicated home charger changes the whole experience.Â
Your Local Tradesman installs home EV chargers across Adelaide, with same-day service and no surprises on price.
EV charger installation is one of the fastest-growing electrical services we offer. With over 15 years of experience, our licensed electricians assess your home's setup, recommend the right charger for your vehicle, and get it installed properly from day one. And yes, that includes a lifetime labour guarantee.
A standard 10-amp powerpoint will charge your EV, but you're looking at 8 to 12 hours for a full charge, sometimes more. A dedicated Level 2 home charger cuts that down to 3 to 6 hours, depending on your vehicle.Â
Standard powerpoints also aren't built for the sustained load of overnight EV charging. A dedicated charger is weatherproof, purpose-built, and many come with smart features like scheduling, energy monitoring, and app control. It's a better setup in every way, and it adds value to your property too.
We have a safe & solid approach to installing EV charger's to homes - understanding that each house is built differently and taking the safest approach for install, no matter the home.
Our process includes:


Possibly. A Level 2 charger draws significantly more power than a standard outlet, and older switchboards don't always have the capacity. We check this during our initial visit and let you know upfront if a switchboard upgrade is needed.
