What an EV charger installation costs

A 7.4kW home charge point from £750 covers the visit, the cable run from the fuse board, fitting the charger and testing before we leave.

From £750

Included

  • A look at the fuse board and the parking bay before we quote
  • A written price for a 7.4kW home charge point
  • The cable run from the board to the charger position
  • Fitting and testing the home charger
  • Showing you how to start a charge before we leave

Not included

Ways to pay

  • Visa
  • Mastercard
  • American Express
  • Apple Pay

  • £750 is a starting price for a typical 7.4kW home charger, not a fixed figure for every house.
  • A long cable run, a tight garage, or a fuse board that cannot take the extra load can raise the total, and we put that in writing first.
  • Booked charger jobs sit in our working hours.

Who books an EV charger in Basingstoke

People in Basingstoke, Kempshott, Hatch Warren, Chineham, Hook and Fleet book this work when a new car needs a proper wall charger instead of a three pin trickle lead.

  • New electric car on the drivewayYou have taken delivery of a plug in car and want a 7.4kW home charge point on the drive or in the garage so overnight charging is quicker than a household socket.
  • Houses with a fuse board close to the parking baySemi detached homes in Popley, Oakley and Tadley often have the board in the garage or hallway, which keeps the cable run short and keeps the job to a home 7.4kW unit.
  • Replacing a slow three pin leadA trailing lead through a window is slow and awkward. We move charging onto a dedicated wall unit with a tidy cable path from the board.
  • Second cars and company vehicles at homeHouseholds that now park an electric work car overnight need a charger that JD Electricals sizes against the existing board, not a workplace rapid bay.

What happens on the day

JD Electricals carries out the charger job, from arrival at the house to a working unit on the wall.

  • Arrival and board checkWe arrive at the property, confirm the parking bay and inspect the fuse board so the 7.4kW load can sit on the existing installation.
  • Cable run and charger fittingWe run the cable along the path we set from the board to the wall, mount the 7.4kW unit and make the connections.
  • Test and handoverWe test the charger, walk you through a first charge and leave any paperwork the job needs, including a minor works certificate from £95 when the work calls for one.

“Most of my work is domestic: consumer units, full and partial rewires, lighting and EICRs on houses around Basingstoke. I test and certify everything I fit, and anything else I find while I am there gets priced separately rather than added quietly to the bill. The electrician who quotes your job is the one who does it.”

Common questions

Still have a question?

How much does a home EV charger cost?

A 7.4kW home charge point with JD Electricals starts at £750. A long cable run or a fuse board that needs changing sits on top of that figure and goes in the written quote first.

Do I need a new fuse board for an EV charger?

Not always. Many Basingstoke houses can take a 7.4kW unit on the existing board. If the board is full or old, a replacement starts at £650 and we price that as its own line.

Who turns up to fit the charger?

JD Electricals manages the work from the quote through to the final test, with the agreed details kept against the job throughout.

Can you fit a charger in a garage in Kempshott or Hatch Warren?

Yes. Garage walls in those estates are a common place for a 7.4kW unit, as long as the car can sit close enough for the cable to reach.

Is this for a workplace rapid charger?

No. This job is a 7.4kW home charge point. Commercial Starlink work is a different service, and workplace rapid bays are outside this work.
