Plug Point installs electric vehicle chargers at homes and workplaces. A qualified electrician checks your supply and the cable route before we quote, so the price you agree is the price you pay.

- Driveways and garages
- Workplace car parks
- Qualified electricians only

Three ways to start charging
Prices cover a standard install, where the charger sits within 10 metres of the main panel and the supply has room for it. The survey confirms the price before anything is ordered.
Fitting only
from$690
- For a charger you have already bought
- We confirm it suits your supply first
- The same circuit, protection and testing
- An old charger taken away if there is one
Workplace charge points
per point, from$2,450
- Survey of the site supply and the car park
- Load management across every point
- Posts or wall units, with bay markings
- A yearly inspection plan on request
Longer cable runs, trenching and panel upgrades are priced on the survey. Work starts once you accept the quote, and payment is arranged directly with us when the charger is tested and handed over.
What the survey checks before we quote
A survey takes about forty five minutes. These six things decide whether a home or a site can take a charger as it stands.
| We check | Why it matters | If it falls short |
|---|---|---|
| The main fuse or breaker rating | A charger draws a large current for hours at a time | Load management, or an upgrade requested from the network operator |
| The panel and its spare space | The charger needs its own circuit and protection | A small extra panel fitted beside the main one |
| The earthing arrangement | Local wiring rules set how a charger must be earthed | An earth rod or the protection those rules call for |
| The cable route | Distance and walls set the time and the price | A route through the garage or along the wall, agreed with you |
| Where the car parks | The cable has to reach the charging port without crossing a path | A wall position or a post at the right spot |
| Signal at the parking spot | Smart chargers need a connection for schedules | A signal booster, or a charger that works offline |
Electricians qualified where the charger goes
Every install is carried out by an electrician who holds the qualification required in the place where the work is done, and who follows the local wiring rules. Those rules differ between countries and sometimes between cities, so the survey notes which ones apply to your address.
Where the network operator has to be told about a new charger, or has to approve it first, we prepare and send that paperwork. You receive the test results on the day, and the charger is registered wherever local rules ask for it.
- Qualified, insured electricians on every job
- A dedicated circuit and protection for each charger
- Test results recorded and handed to you
- Network paperwork handled where it is required
From the first message to the first charge
Most homes move from the survey to a working charger within two to three weeks.

An electrician checks the supply, the panel, the earthing and the cable route.
Fixed quote

Install day
The charger is mounted, wired, tested and set up with you.
Handover
Test results, a short demonstration and a number to call with any question later.
Workplaces, car parks and apartment blocks
Shared sites need more planning than a driveway, because several cars draw on one supply. We design the layout with the building manager before the first post goes in.
Staff and visitor bays
Charge points laid out across a car park, with load management so every car gets a fair share of the supply.
Per pointfrom $2,450
Apartment car parks
Chargers for residents in shared garages, wired to each flat's own supply or to a shared meter, as the building agrees.
Per pointfrom $1,850
Load management
A controller that shares the available capacity between chargers, so adding cars does not always mean a bigger supply.
Per sitefrom $780
Charger moves
A charger taken down at the old address and fitted at the new one, after a fresh survey, then tested again.
Movefrom $540
Fault visits
Chargers that trip, stop charging or lose their connection checked by an electrician and repaired where parts allow.
Visitfrom $140
Yearly inspection
A safety test of each charger, its cable and its protection, with a written record for the site's files.
Per pointfrom $95
Shared sites usually need the building owner's agreement first, and the rules on shared parking vary by country.
Recent installs
Each charger goes where the car's charging port meets the parking spot, with the cable kept clear of the path.
From drivers and site managers (example reviews)
The survey found the panel had no spare space, so they fitted a small extra one and explained why on the quote. Charging every night since, and the cable stays tidy on its holder.
Eight bays at the office, done in two phases over two weekends, so nobody lost a parking space during the working week.
A clear quote, an electrician who arrived on time, and the network paperwork sent off without any effort on our side.
Questions before you book a survey
Will a charger suit our car?
Almost certainly. Chargers use the connector standard of your region, and the survey confirms which one your car takes. A tethered cable or a socket outlet are both possible.
Can a car charge from an ordinary socket?
It can for occasional use, but ordinary sockets are not designed for many hours at a high current every night. A charger on its own circuit is the safer choice for daily charging.
Is permission needed for a charger?
It depends on where you live. Some places ask for the network operator to be told or to approve first, and landlords, building owners or residents' associations may need to agree. The survey sets out what applies at your address.
Are there grants for home chargers?
Some countries, regions and utilities offer grants or rebates, and they change often. We point you to any scheme we know of for your area, and you confirm the terms with whoever runs it.
How long does an install take?
Most home installs take about half a day. Long cable runs, trenching or an extra panel can make it a full day. Workplace sites are planned in phases.
How is the work paid for?
For homes, the balance is due when the charger is tested and handed over. Workplace jobs take a deposit of 30 percent when the order is placed. Payment is arranged directly with our office.
