Smart Choice Sparks installs home EV charging points across Hampshire and Berkshire, bringing faster, dedicated charging to your driveway or garage. A dedicated 7kW smart charger is far more efficient than a standard three-pin socket, and many models include smart scheduling so you can charge overnight on cheaper off-peak tariffs. Matthew carries out a full survey before installation to confirm your consumer unit and supply can support the charger.
Matthew visits to assess your consumer unit, supply capacity, and the best location for the charger and cable run.
You confirm the charger model and mounting point — typically on a garage wall or the external wall of the house.
The charger and its dedicated circuit are installed, with cabling run neatly and all weatherproofing in place.
The installation is tested, and Matthew walks you through the charger controls and any app setup.
Smart Choice Sparks can advise on suitable models based on your vehicle, your daily mileage, and your preferences for smart features. The right charger for most home installations is a 7kW single-phase unit with Type 2 connector and smart scheduling capability.
Most modern consumer units can support an EV charger, though older boards may need upgrading first. Matthew checks this as part of the pre-installation survey — if an upgrade is needed, this is quoted separately and transparently.
Yes. Home EV chargers use the standard Type 2 connector, which works with all major EV brands sold in the UK. If you have a Tesla, the cable supplied with the charger or an adaptor connects to the Type 2 outlet.
Smart Choice Sparks provides ev charger installation across 38 towns and villages in Hampshire and Berkshire.
