    If you are looking for EV charger installation in Melbourne, you are on the right page.

    Electric vehicles are becoming increasingly popular in Melbourne. Having your own EV charger at home or work means you can enjoy faster, more convenient, and cost-effective charging. Whether you drive a Tesla, BYD, Hyundai, or any other electric car brand, Canny Electrics can help install your charger to ensure your vehicle is always ready when you need it.

    We aim for the home EV charger installations to be completed within 2-5 working days of the charger arriving at your address, ensuring a quick and efficient setup.

    Types of EV Chargers We Install

    Canny Electrics offer expert installation for a variety of EV chargers to suit your lifestyle and budget:

    Type of Charger Power (kW) Approximate Charging Time
    Level 1 Charger 2.3 kW 20 – 30 hours (slow charge)
    Level 2 Charger 7 kW – 11 kW 5 – 8 hours (overnight charge)
    Fast Charger 22 kW – 50 kW 1 – 3 hours

    Please note: Charging times are approximate and can vary based on your EV’s battery size, charger compatibility, home electrical capacity, environmental conditions, and the natural slowing of charging speed as the battery nears full charge.

    So, which EV charging solution should you choose?

    Level 1 Chargers: These basic chargers use a standard power outlet and are ideal if you drive shorter distances. Charging times are slower but affordable to install.

    Level 2 Chargers: Faster than Level 1, these chargers require a dedicated electrical circuit and provide quicker charging at home or work.

    Fast Chargers: Designed for commercial or multi-vehicle use. These chargers deliver rapid charging to keep you moving.

    Installation costs in Melbourne vary depending on factors such as:

    • Any site-specific conditions or obstacles

    The installation cost of EV chargers can range between $600 to $2,000, excluding the cost of the EV charger itself.
