EV Charging at a Fraction of the Installation Cost
Most home EV charger installations start at several thousand dollars because they involve switchboard upgrades and dedicated circuits. Upgrading your standard 10-amp outlet to 15-amp costs a fraction of that and delivers 3.6kW of charging power, enough for most daily commutes.
We assess your existing 10-amp outlet, upgrade it to 15-amp for EV charging, and complete the work for Maitland homes in a single visit at a fixed price. No major electrical infrastructure changes.
Our electricians are licenced and Clean Energy Council accredited. The upgraded outlet is certified and backed by a workmanship warranty.

We had just ordered a new EV and wanted home charging before it arrived.
They came out, checked the outlet, and explained exactly what a 15-amp upgrade would deliver before quoting. The work took about two hours and we were charging that same day.
Would not hesitate to use them again if we add a second car.

The GPO 15A upgrade was much cheaper than a full 7kW install but gives us usable charging at home.
Straightforward, professional, and it works perfectly for our needs.

We needed charging at home but were not sure our switchboard could handle a full installation.
They assessed the outlet, explained that a 15-amp upgrade was the right fit for our commute, and had everything done and certified in a single visit.
The whole job was done in a couple of hours, we were charging the same day, and the compliance certificate was issued before they left.
Absolutely worth doing if you drive under 100km daily.

Our second car needed charging, and we did not want the cost of a full 7kW install.
They upgraded the outlet to 15-amp at a fixed price upfront, no surprises, no hidden fees. It is not the fastest charger, but for our second car and occasional use, it works perfectly.

They quoted a fixed price upfront and there were no surprises when the bill came.
The assessment was thorough, the installation was quick, and the compliance paperwork was handled on the day.
Exactly what we needed without the fuss or cost of a bigger installation.

We were sceptical about whether a 15-amp outlet would be enough for our new EV.
The electrician explained that 3.6kW would charge a small EV overnight, and that matched our actual driving. Everything was installed to Australian standards and certified on the day.
We expected more disruption than there was, it was straightforward and professional.
Happy to recommend them to other Maitland homeowners.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a GPO 15A upgrade for EV charging cost in Maitland?
A 15A outlet upgrade typically costs between $1,000 and $1,800 depending on wiring requirements and outlet condition. That is roughly one-third to one-half the cost of a full 7kW charger installation. For homeowners driving under 100km daily, the upgrade delivers full charging benefit at a fraction of the cost. Call us for a free assessment to get a fixed price for your property.
How do I know if a 15A outlet is right for me?
You are a good candidate for a 15A upgrade if you drive under 100km daily, you have access to overnight charging, you do not use your EV for highway road trips regularly, and you want affordable home charging without major infrastructure work. A 15A outlet delivers 3.6kW and adds roughly 23km of range per hour, enough to fully recover a small EV battery overnight. If any of those conditions do not apply, a 7kW charger may be the better choice. Get in touch and we will assess your situation.
Will upgrading my outlet cause power outages?
Some brief power isolation may be needed during the upgrade work, but it is typically just minutes. We will confirm the expected downtime when you book. In most cases, the disruption is minimal compared to a full charger installation. Most 15A outlet upgrades are completed in a single visit of 1 to 2 hours, depending on wiring complexity. Contact us to arrange a time that suits your household.
What does a GPO 15A outlet upgrade involve?
The process covers an assessment of your current outlet and commute, a quote and specification, the upgrade installation (wiring, protection devices, outlet replacement if needed), testing, and a compliance certificate. Most upgrades are single-visit jobs with no hidden scope or surprises. Assessment is a separate visit beforehand, or we can combine it with the quote in a single trip. Call to arrange your assessment today.
Do I get a compliance certificate for a 15A outlet upgrade?
Yes. A compliance certificate is issued on completion, covering the outlet upgrade and all wiring work. This is a legal requirement for electrical work in Australia and confirms the upgrade meets Australian wiring standards. The certificate protects your insurance claim and is a positive record for property resale. It confirms the electrical work is safe and correctly completed. Get in touch to book your free assessment.
