Installing a wall or post charger
Most home charging points are wall-mounted in the garage or on the front of the house. Where the car parks away from the wall, a post charger on a small foundation does the job.
The electrician chooses the route of the cable, the position of the charger and its connection, then fits it with its own circuit and protection. Outdoors he checks that the charger and the cable are protected against impacts and weather.
We install chargers of the main makes and advise a model that suits your car, your supply and whether you want to follow consumption on an app.
Adapting the fuse board and managing the power
A charging point draws a lot of current for hours at a time. It needs a dedicated circuit, a suitable breaker and an RCD of the right type, which the electrician fits in your board or in a sub-board next to it.
If your supply is limited, load management adjusts the charging power to what the house is already using, so cooking and heating do not trip the main breaker. With solar panels, the charger can favour the electricity you produce yourself.
When the board is old or full, the electrician tells you frankly whether it needs updating first.
Repairing a charging point
A charger that no longer starts a session, shows an error or makes the RCD trip: the electrician checks the supply, the protection devices, the cable and the communication with the car or the app.
Many faults come from a tripped protection device, a setting changed after an update or a connection that has worked loose. Others need a part or the manufacturer's support.
He tells you the cause and the cost before repairing.
Compliance and documents
A charging point is part of the electrical installation and must comply with the regulations. Diagrams are updated: the circuit appears on the single-line diagram and the layout plan.
The protection devices are matched to the cable and the charger, and the earth is checked. An old board without an RCD, or a poor earth, must be put right first.
Depending on your situation, the installation may have to be checked by an approved inspection body; we prepare the documents for it.
The steps of your installation
You contact us with a photo of the board and of the place where the car parks. We book a visit and you receive a free quote with a fixed price.
On the day, the electrician lays the cable, fits the charger and the protection devices, sets up load management and updates the diagrams.
He then runs a first charge with you, shows you the settings and hands over the job sheet and the invoice.
Why entrust us with your charger
We are electricians by trade, used to Belgian installations and their boards. We look at the whole installation, not only the charger.
The same office handles heating, heat pumps and solar panels, so the charger can be planned with the rest of your projects.
For businesses and blocks of flats, we also install several chargers with shared load management.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to change my fuse board for a charger?
Not always. If there is room and the supply is enough, a circuit is added. An old or full board may need updating first.
Which charger should I choose?
It depends on your car, your supply and whether you want an app or solar charging. We advise a model at the visit.
Can the charger slow down when the house uses a lot?
Yes, with load management the charging power adapts to what the house is using.
Do you install chargers for companies and buildings?
Yes, several chargers with shared load management, for businesses and co-ownerships.
How long does the installation take?
Usually half a day to a day for a home charger, longer if the board must be updated.
Do you repair chargers you did not install?
Yes, we check the supply, the protection, the cable and the settings, then tell you the cost.
