Wolli Creek and Arncliffe apartment car parks are where we do most local EV charger work, with strata approval.
EV Charger Installation Arncliffe: what we typically find
New apartments in Arncliffe may be EV-ready. Older semis often lack off-street parking.
We assess the options honestly.
How the job works in Arncliffe
Installation in a house garage usually takes half a day to a day.
We'll show you how to use the charger's scheduling features.
Where off-street parking is available, a home charger is installed in the usual way: capacity check, dedicated cable, charger and protection, then commissioning. Arncliffe's older homes may need a switchboard upgrade first.
In newer apartments near the station and Wolli Creek, car parks may already have EV-ready infrastructure. If so, connecting your charger may be relatively simple once strata approval is given. If not, we'll assess the building's supply and propose options.
If you rely on street parking, we'll tell you honestly that a home charger isn't an option, and suggest looking at nearby public charging instead.
Older semis and cottages near Arncliffe station sometimes have a single-phase supply and a small board that's already working hard. A 7 kW charger adds a substantial continuous load, so we check the main cable and supply as well as the board. If capacity is limited, a charger with load management can reduce its charging rate when the house is using more power.

About Arncliffe
In the older cottages and semis, we find original wiring and fuse boards that need replacing, along with too few power points.
