EV CHARGERS

electric vehicle charging in sheffield

Did you know? Electric Vehicle Chargers can use as much power as Showers and Hobs when first starting? This puts them at high risk, when installed properly, from overloading and burning out or even making the Car bodywork live!!

But that’s not all, when you invest in a Smart type of charger, not only do they remove the risks (when installed properly), but also costs less to run and are more likely to be eligible for OLEV grants too!

We work with the FOUR main leading manufacturers of EV Charger Units to be able to match up the best options for the Car you have and the setup of your home.

You just got home from work and want to charge the car. You plug it in and it goes to around 7.5kW initial load. Then you head for the shower while your partner kindly switches on the hob and start making the dinner. Right now you’ve got the shower, hob and Car Charger working hard! With a Smart charger, it knows that a lot of load if being used elsewhere in the house. So it drops to a lower output to prevent overloading the fuseboard. When you step out of the shower if increases the level to the car a bit more. Then when to hob is switched off it increases the Car even further. ALL AUTOMATICALLY!

Add to this the fact the your energy generation devices can be attached too. Whether it’s solar panels, ground source heat pumps, Wind turbines or Storage batteries, ECO Mode can be enabled so that the Car Charger only uses the renewable energy sources, rather than drawing from the national grid.
