Installation Costs in Northampton
We believe in honest, fair pricing with no hidden charges. Every installation is unique, but here are the main factors that influence your home charging investment.
Charger Type
Basic 7kW units are the most affordable option, while smart chargers with WiFi connectivity and advanced features cost more. Your choice depends on whether simple charging is enough or you want smart features like solar integration and scheduled charging.
Installation Work
Simple installations with short cable runs and sufficient electrical capacity are most economical. If your consumer unit needs upgrading, or cables must run long distances, additional work increases costs. Our site survey identifies these factors upfront.
Additional Requirements
Some properties require earth rod installation, DNO notifications, or protective device upgrades. Properties without adequate earthing may need additional work. We’ll identify all requirements during the survey so your quote covers everything fully.
Government Grants & Funding
As OZEV-certified installers, we help you access government funding for your Northampton EV charger installation, significantly reducing your overall cost.
EV Chargepoint Grant
Eligible properties including flats, rental homes, and multi-unit buildings can access grants covering part of installation costs. We’ll check your eligibility and handle the full application process for you.
Workplace Charging Scheme
Northampton businesses can secure grants funding up to 75% of workplace charging installation costs. This makes it affordable to provide charging for employees, visitors, and fleet vehicles while demonstrating environmental responsibility.

Frequently Asked Questions About EV Installation
Common questions about EV charger installation in Northampton answered by our expert team.
How long does installation take?
Most home EV charger installations in Northampton are completed within 3-4 hours. This includes mounting the charging unit, running cables, making electrical connections, and thorough testing. More complex installations requiring consumer unit upgrades or long cable runs may take longer, but we’ll give you accurate timeframes during your site survey.
Can I get a grant for my home charger?
Certain properties qualify for EV Chargepoint Grant funding, including flats, rental properties, and multi-dwelling buildings. As OZEV-certified installers, we can check your eligibility and submit grant applications for you. Even without grant qualification, our competitive prices offer excellent value for your electric vehicle charging installation.
Do I need off-street parking for an EV charger?
Yes, off-street parking is essential for safety and legal reasons. Cables cannot trail across pavements or public footpaths. You’ll need a driveway, garage, or designated parking space within your property boundary. During our Northampton site visit, we’ll confirm your parking setup is suitable for EV charger installation.
Will my existing electrical system support an EV charger?
Most modern Northampton properties have sufficient electrical capacity for 7kW home chargers. However, older consumer units or properties with limited supply may require upgrades. Our qualified electricians assess your electrical system during the site survey and identify any necessary modifications, ensuring complete safety and compliance.
What's the difference between smart and basic chargers?
Smart chargers offer WiFi connectivity, app control, and scheduling functions allowing charging during cheap rate periods overnight. They can integrate with solar panels and provide detailed energy usage data. Basic chargers provide reliable charging without these advanced features. We’ll recommend the best option based on your needs and budget during our consultation.
How much does home electric car charging cost?
Home charging is significantly cheaper than public charging networks. On standard rates, charging typically costs 7-9p per kilowatt-hour. With specialist EV tariffs offering cheap overnight rates as low as 4-5p per kWh, you could fully charge most EVs for just £3-5. Your new Northampton-installed charger will dramatically reduce your motoring costs compared to petrol or diesel.
Can I install a charger at a rental property?
Yes, with landlord permission. We’ve helped many Northampton tenants install EV chargers in rental properties. Landlords often approve as it adds property value and appeal. Rental properties may also qualify for government grants. We can provide documentation to help landlord discussions and ensure professional, reversible installation if required.
What maintenance do EV chargers require?
EV chargers require minimal maintenance. We recommend annual visual inspection to check cables and connections remain secure. Most manufacturers provide excellent warranties covering any technical faults. We offer ongoing support for all our Northampton installations, and our team is always available to help with any questions or concerns that arise.
Are you qualified EV charger installers?
Absolutely. We’re OZEV-certified installers with fully qualified electricians holding all necessary qualifications for EV charger installation in Northampton. Every installation complies with current BS7671 wiring regulations and Building Regulations Part P. You’ll receive full electrical certificates confirming your charger installation is safe, compliant, and professionally completed.
