Installation Costs in Kettering

We believe in honest, fair pricing with no hidden charges. Each installation varies, but here are the main factors affecting your home charging investment.

Charger Choice

Basic 7kW units are the most economical option, while smart chargers with WiFi connectivity and advanced features cost more. Your choice depends on whether simple charging is enough or you want smart functions like solar integration and scheduled charging.

Installation Difficulty

Simple installations with short cable runs and sufficient electrical supply are cheapest. If your consumer unit needs upgrading, or cables must run long distances, additional work increases costs. Our site survey identifies these factors upfront.

Extra Requirements

Some properties need earth rod installation, DNO notification, or protective device upgrades. Properties without adequate earthing may require extra work. We’ll identify all requirements during the survey so your quote covers everything completely.

Government Grants & Funding

As OZEV-approved installers, we help you access government funding for your Kettering EV charger installation, significantly reducing your overall cost.

EV Chargepoint Grant

Eligible properties such as flats, rental homes, and multi-unit buildings can receive grants covering part of installation costs. We’ll check your eligibility and handle the full application process for you.

Workplace Charging Scheme

Kettering businesses can receive grants covering up to 75% of workplace charging installation costs. This makes it affordable to provide charging for employees, visitors, and fleet vehicles while demonstrating sustainability leadership.

Frequently Asked Questions About EV Installation

Common questions about EV charger installation in Kettering answered by our expert team.

How long does installation take?

Most home EV charger installations in Kettering complete within 3-4 hours. This includes mounting the charger, running cables, making electrical connections, and full testing. More complex installations requiring consumer unit upgrades or long cable runs may take longer, but we’ll give exact timescales during your site survey.

Can I get a grant for home charger installation?

Certain properties qualify for EV Chargepoint Grant funding, including flats, rental properties, and multi-occupancy dwellings. As OZEV-approved installers, we can check your eligibility and submit grant applications for you. Even without grant eligibility, our competitive rates offer great value for your electric vehicle charging installation.

Do I need off-street parking for an EV charger?

Yes, off-street parking is required for safety and legal reasons. Cables cannot trail across pavements or public footpaths. You’ll need a driveway, garage, or designated parking space on your property. During our Kettering site visit, we’ll confirm your parking arrangement is suitable for EV charger installation.

Will my electrical system support an EV charger?

Most modern Kettering properties have sufficient electrical capacity for 7kW home chargers. However, older consumer units or properties with limited supply may need upgrades. Our certified electricians assess your electrical system during the site survey and identify any necessary improvements, ensuring full safety and compliance.

What's the difference between smart and basic chargers?

Smart chargers offer WiFi connectivity, app control, and scheduling features allowing charging during cheap-rate periods overnight. They can connect with solar panels and provide detailed energy usage data. Basic chargers provide reliable charging without these advanced features. We’ll recommend the best option based on your needs and budget during our consultation.

How much does home electric vehicle charging cost?

Home charging is significantly cheaper than public charging points. On standard rates, charging typically costs 7-9p per kilowatt-hour. With dedicated EV tariffs offering reduced overnight rates as low as 4-5p per kWh, you could fully charge most EVs for just £3-5. Your new Kettering-installed charger will massively cut your motoring costs compared to petrol or diesel.

Can I install a charger at a rented property?

Yes, with landlord permission. We’ve helped many Kettering tenants install EV chargers in rental homes. Landlords often agree as it increases property value and appeal. Rental properties may also qualify for government grants. We can provide documentation to help landlord discussions and ensure professional, removable installation if needed.

How much maintenance do EV chargers require?

EV chargers require very little maintenance. We recommend annual visual checks to ensure cables and connections stay secure. Most manufacturers provide excellent warranties covering any technical faults. We offer ongoing support for all our Kettering installations, and our team is always available to help with any questions or issues that arise.

Are you qualified EV charger installers?

Absolutely. We’re OZEV-approved installers with fully certified electricians holding all necessary qualifications for EV charger installation in Kettering. Every installation meets current BS7671 wiring regulations and Building Regulations Part P. You’ll receive full electrical certificates confirming your charger installation is safe, compliant, and professionally executed.
