Choosing the right EV charger system
The best EV charger is not necessarily the most powerful or expensive model. We’ll help you find a practical, cost-effective option based on your vehicle, driving needs, property and any existing solar or battery system.
Port Power Electrical Services supplies and installs leading brands and models including Tesla (Tesla Gen 3), Ocular brands, Zappi, Evnex, Sigenergy, Fronius, Solar Edge and Sungrow.
We can also install suitable customer-supplied chargers, including units supplied with BMW and Mercedes-Benz vehicles. We’ll first confirm that the charger is compatible with your vehicle, property and electrical supply and meets Australian requirements.
We’ll recommend a charging rate that suits your vehicle and driving needs. If you drive longer distances regularly or need to charge your vehicle faster, we may recommend a higher-capacity installation.
From straightforward charging to fully integrated systems
Not every home needs the most advanced EV charger. You may simply want a reliable charger that lets you plug in overnight, or you may prefer a more advanced system that works closely with your solar panels, home battery and energy-management software.
- Straightforward charging: A simple, reliable option that allows you to plug in and charge your vehicle at home. Plug and play style with minimal tech.
- Smart charging: An app-connected charger that may allow you to schedule charging, monitor energy use and manage the charger remotely.
- Solar-optimised charging: These chargers monitor the surplus solar power your home would otherwise export to the grid and use it to charge your vehicle where possible. This can help you make better use of the energy generated by your solar system.
- Fully integrated energy management: For homes with compatible solar and battery equipment, a charger from the same energy ecosystem can provide greater visibility and control through one app. Depending on the system, you may be able to monitor solar generation, household energy use, battery storage and EV charging together.

Frequently asked questions
What should I consider before arranging an EV charger installation?
Start by thinking about where you usually park your vehicle overnight. This helps us recommend a convenient charger location and determine what cabling and electrical work may be required.
Where can a home EV charger be installed?
Most home chargers are installed in a garage close to where the vehicle is parked overnight. Many models are also rated for outdoor use and can be mounted externally, including near the switchboard. We’ll help you choose a safe and practical location with easy access to your vehicle’s charging port.
What types of EV chargers do you install?
We install single-phase and three-phase EV charging systems from leading brands, including Tesla, Ocular, myenergi zappi, Evnex, Sigenergy, Fronius, Sungrow and SolarEdge. This includes smart and solar-optimised chargers for homes and businesses.
How long does it take to install a home EV charger?
A standard home installation generally takes around two to four hours. The timeframe will depend on your switchboard, the charger location, the cable route and whether any additional electrical work is required.
Can you install an EV charger at a rental property or apartment?
Yes, although you may need approval from the property owner or body corporate before work begins. We can assess the electrical requirements and provide technical information to support the approval process.
Can I control my EV charger through an app?
Many of the smart chargers we install include app-based features for charging schedules, energy-use monitoring and solar integration. Available features vary between models, and we can help you choose one with the functionality you need.
Which EV chargers work best with solar and home batteries?
A compatible solar-optimised charger can use available surplus solar power to charge your vehicle and provide greater visibility and control through an app. This can reduce the amount of electricity drawn from the grid and help you make better use of the solar energy generated by your home. We’ll assess your existing or planned solar and battery system and recommend a charger that works with your equipment.
Are there any costs besides the EV charger?
Your quote will include the electrical work and materials required for your installation. Additional costs may apply if you need a longer cable run, switchboard work, trenching, a mounting post or equipment for solar integration or power management. We’ll identify these requirements before work begins and explain them clearly in your quote.
