# EV charger installation in Townsville Fitted by licensed electricians.

Barra Solar Power installs home EV chargers in Townsville and across North Queensland.
A home charger for your electric vehicle or electric car is an electrical job, and
it should be done by a licensed electrician. We install home EV charging units on
their own, or alongside solar and a battery, so you can charge from your own power
supply and the sun.

Chargers we install

## Six brands, matched to your system.

We install chargers from the brands below. Some work best alongside their own maker’s
inverter or battery, so we look at what you already have, or are planning, before
we recommend one.

Before we quote

## We start at the switchboard.

 * **The switchboard.** Is there room and capacity for a charger circuit?
 * **The cable run.** How far is it from the switchboard to where you park?
 * **Your supply.** Single-phase or three-phase, and what else the home runs.
 * **Your solar or battery.** If you have them, or want them, we plan the charger
   around them.

Send us a photo of your switchboard and where you park, and we will tell you what
the job looks like.

Charging from the sun

## Use your own power to charge.

If the car is home during the day, solar can cover much of the charging. If you 
charge at night, a home battery can store the day’s solar for later.

If you are weighing up a system as well, see our [solar and battery packages](https://www.barrasolarpower.com.au/services/solar-and-battery-packages/).

[Ask us a question](https://www.barrasolarpower.com.au/contact-us/)

01Do you install EV chargers in Townsville?

Yes. Our own licensed electricians install home chargers for electric vehicles in
Townsville and across North Queensland, on their own or alongside solar and a battery.
Call [07 4401 5122](https://www.barrasolarpower.com.au/services/ev-charger-installation-townsville/0744015122)
or [request a quote online](https://www.barrasolarpower.com.au/contact-us/).

02Which EV chargers do you install?

We install chargers from Sigenergy, Sungrow, SolaX, Fronius (the Wattpilot), Tesla
and BYD.

03Do I need solar to have a charger installed?

No. We install EV chargers on their own, without solar. A home charger is an electrical
job in its own right, and solar just lets you charge from the sun.

04What do you need to quote a charger?

A photo of your switchboard, a photo of where you park, and the make and model of
your car. If you have solar or a battery, tell us what you have.

05Will the charger work with my car?

Tell us the make and model and we will check it suits before we quote.

## Ready to charge at home? Here’s how it works.

 1. Send us a photo of your switchboard and where you park.
 2. Tell us your car, and any solar or battery you have.
 3. We send a written proposal, then our own licensed team installs it.
