Charge Overnight in Your Strata Car Space
Without a charger in your car space, charging an EV in an apartment usually means planning around public chargers or relying on a 10-amp wall outlet that adds around 16km of range per hour. That changes when you have a dedicated charger in your car park.
A 7kW single-phase charger in your Maitland car space adds around 47km of range per hour. Plug in when you get home, wake up with a full battery. No public chargers, no slow overnight trickle from a wall outlet.
Every install is carried out by licensed, Clean Energy Council accredited electricians and comes with a compliance certificate and workmanship warranty.
We install EV chargers in apartment and strata buildings across Maitland and surrounding suburbs. See all the areas we cover.
Strata Installs Done Right
Strata installations that skip body corporate approval or get the metering wrong are costly to fix and sometimes impossible to keep in place. The process matters more here than on any other type of install.
Our process works through every strata requirement before any installation begins. Body corporate approval, individual metering, cabling path, and compliance sign-off are all confirmed and in place before a single cable is run.

0400 167 468Assessing Your Car Space and Building
The assessment covers your car space, the building’s shared electrical infrastructure, and the cabling path to a suitable power source.
Designing Your Setup and Getting Approval
We design the charger install for your car space and prepare the technical documentation your body corporate or strata manager needs to assess and approve it.
Fitted, Tested and Signed Off
We install your charger in your car space, fit sub-metering and load management as required, and sign off with a compliance certificate for your records and the building’s.
On Call After Every Job
Our workmanship is warranted, and we take callouts for servicing and repairs from the same team that installed your charger and knows the building setup.

What Maitland Homeowners Say

We had an old 10A outlet and worried about whether it would handle constant EV charging.
Ryan came out, tested our switchboard, explained that we could safely go to 15A, and installed a proper weatherproof outlet with the cable run neatly.
The charging time improved dramatically and we’re not mucking about with adapters anymore.

Wasn’t sure if our home’s wiring would need a complete redo just for an outlet upgrade.
Jacob checked everything, said it was fine, and got the new outlet installed in under an hour without any drama.
Now we’ve got a dedicated charging outlet that works great and looks professional.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need body corporate approval to install an EV charger in my apartment?
In most cases, yes. Installing an EV charger in a strata car space involves work on shared electrical infrastructure, which typically requires body corporate approval. The process varies by building, but generally involves a technical submission to the body corporate committee for review. We prepare the documentation as part of the job, so you are not left to manage that separately. Get in touch to arrange the assessment.
What affects the cost of an EV charger installation in a strata building?
The main cost variables are the cable run from the nearest suitable power source to your car space, whether sub-metering is required, any shared switchboard work needed, and the charger model. Buildings with car spaces close to the main electrical room tend to cost less. The assessment is what gives us the information to price the job accurately. Older Hunter Valley homes sometimes need switchboard upgrades before a dedicated EV charger circuit can be safely added. Newer Maitland estate homes are typically straightforward installations with short cable runs and modern boards. Call us for a quote.
My building says sub-metering is required. What does that involve?
Sub-metering means fitting an individual meter to your car space charger circuit so your usage is separately recorded and billed. It is a standard requirement in many strata buildings and is something we install routinely as part of the job. We will confirm the exact sub-metering specification required by your body corporate and include it in the fixed-price quote. Let us know if your building has specific requirements.
How long does the process take from first contact to a working charger in my car space?
From initial site assessment through to a working charger in your car space, the process typically takes between four and twelve weeks, with the largest variable being body corporate approval time. Buildings with active strata managers and regular committee meetings tend to move faster. We prepare the approval documentation as part of our service to minimise the risk of delays from incomplete submissions. Once approval is in place, the installation itself is straightforward and typically completed in a day. Contact us to discuss your timeline.
Will I get a compliance certificate for my apartment EV charger installation?
Yes. A compliance certificate is issued on completion, covering the charger installation and all associated electrical work in the building, including any sub-metering or load management fitted as part of the job. This is a legal requirement for electrical work in Australia and confirms the installation was completed correctly and to Australian wiring standards. You can provide this to your strata manager alongside the original approval documentation. Get in touch if you have questions about the compliance process.
