What is the cost of EV charger installation in Perth?
Besides the cost of the charger itself, there are other factors that can affect installation costs, such as any necessary electrical upgrades. You can expect to pay between $1000-$3000 for purchase and installation.
How long does it take to install an EV charger?
The length of time needed to install a new EV charger can vary based on factors such as the type of charger, your electrical system's capacity, and the complexity of the installation. Generally, a basic installation for a Level 2 EV charger can take a few hours, while more complex installations might require a day or more.

What is the difference between Level 1 and Level 2 EV chargers?
Level 1 EV chargers use a standard household outlet and provide a slow charging rate, typically adding about 6-8 kilometres of range per hour of charging. Level 2 EV chargers, on the other hand, require a dedicated 240V circuit and offer a faster charging rate, usually adding around 40 kilometres of range per hour. In essence, Level 2 chargers are more efficient for daily charging needs and are commonly installed at homes and public charging stations.
