What affects the price
— Cable run distance. Every extra metre between switchboard and charger adds cable, conduit and labour.
— Switchboard capacity. Old boards without spare capacity or safety switches need an upgrade first, often $800–$2,000.
— Charger choice. Basic 7 kW units cost less than smart chargers with solar integration and load management.
— Single vs three-phase. Three-phase chargers charge faster but cost more in hardware and wiring.
— Mounting & penetrations. Brick walls, underground runs to carports and tight ceiling spaces slow the install.
Tips before you post
— EV charger installation is electrical work — use a licensed electrician and get the certificate of compliance.
— If you have solar, consider a charger that can divert excess solar into the car — it pays back over time.
— Some states and energy retailers offer EV charger rebates — check before you book the install.
