EV charger upgrades and rectifications with my friend Durman Electrical 🤙
Sometimes a “simple replacement” uncovers a much bigger issue ⚡️
While working at this commercial building, we were asked to replace a faulty EV charger. On inspection, we found all three chargers had been poorly installed. Incorrect circuit protection, no surge protection, no load monitoring, and incorrectly terminated cables. The setup didn’t comply with wiring regulations or the manufacturer’s instructions.
We flagged this with the client and provided a solution:
✔️ New wiring
✔️ Individual consumer units for each charger
✔️ RCD protection
✔️ Surge protection
✔️ Load monitoring
The result? A much safer installation that now fully complies with current wiring regulations and gives the client proper peace of mind.
If you’ve got EV chargers on site, it’s worth making sure they’ve been installed correctly - safety and compliance really do matter.
