What makes the whole job feel more straightforward
Proper assessment first
We check your existing supply before any installation starts. That gives you a charger setup that suits your property instead of a rushed guess.
Tested and explained
We do the functional testing before handover. You also get a clear walkthrough, so you're not left staring at buttons and settings.
Domestic and workplace experience
We install charge points for homes and business premises. That means we can scale the job to match how often the charger will actually be used.
A charger installation that starts with the right checks
Home EV charger installation works best when the planning is right from the start. We begin every job with a proper look at your supply, your parking setup, and the spot where Falconers electrical contractor Ltd will install the unit. That helps us work out the safest position for the charger, whether that's your garage, an outside wall, or a driveway location that keeps charging simple day to day. We also plan the cable route carefully, because a neat run matters just as much as a working one when you use the charger every week. Behind the scenes, we install a dedicated circuit and the right protective devices, then check that your existing electrics can support the extra demand. That approach comes from the same practical experience we use for rewiring, electrical inspecting and testing, and wider electrical work in homes and business premises.
What happens on installation day
Once the layout is agreed, we carry out the electrical work needed to connect your charger safely and commission it properly. Falconers electrical contractor Ltd tests the installation, checks that the charger functions as it should, and talks you through the basic controls before we leave. If you're comparing a single home unit with a larger workplace setup, we can explain the difference in power needs, usage patterns, and practical mounting options without burying you in jargon. Our background in domestic and commercial electrical work means we understand both the smaller details and the bigger supply questions that can affect the job. We're based in Elgin and handle EV charger installation enquiries for surrounding areas including Aberdeen, Inverness, Peterhead, Lossiemouth, and Buckie.
Frequently asked questions
How do you decide where to install an EV charger?
We look at where you park, where the electrical supply is, and how the cable can be run safely. The best position is usually the one that keeps charging convenient without creating awkward cable runs or avoidable disruption.
Does an EV charger need its own circuit?
Yes, in most cases an EV charger should be connected on a dedicated circuit with suitable protection. We check your existing installation first to confirm it can support the charger safely and identify any work needed before fitting.
Can you install EV chargers for businesses as well as homes?
Yes, we handle both domestic and commercial charging installations. A home setup is usually focused on one regular user, while a workplace or larger site may need different charger placement, supply planning, and usage considerations.
