Our EV Charger Installation Services in Bacchus Marsh
We install all leading EV charger brands to suit different vehicles and budgets. Our most popular installations include the Tesla Wall Connector for Tesla owners, the Zappi smart charger for homes with solar panels, and Wallbox chargers for their contemporary design and smartphone connectivity. Each installation is customized to your property, whether you need the charger in your garage, under your carport, on your driveway, or mounted to an exterior wall.
Unsure which charger is right for your situation? We'll walk you through the options based on your vehicle type, your home's electrical capacity, and whether you have existing solar panels. If your switchboard needs upgrading to handle the additional load from EV charging, we manage that as part of the complete installation. All our work is performed by licensed electricians to the highest Australian safety standards.

The Installation Process
Our EV charger installation process is straightforward and hassle-free. We begin with a free site visit to your Bacchus Marsh property to assess your electrical infrastructure and understand your requirements. During this visit, we'll check your switchboard capacity, measure cable runs, and identify the optimal charger location. Following the assessment, we provide a detailed quote covering the charger unit, installation work, and any necessary electrical upgrades.
Once you're happy to proceed, we schedule the installation at a time that suits your availability. Most installations are completed within a single day. We'll mount your selected charger, run all necessary cabling, upgrade your switchboard if required, thoroughly test the system, and show you how to use your new charger. You'll be charging your EV at home the same day we finish the work.
☀️ Solar & Smart Charging in Bacchus Marsh
With so many homes now running rooftop solar, pairing your EV charger with solar power is the smart move.
Smart chargers like Zappi and GoodWe can:
- Detect surplus solar generation and prioritise EV charging
- Automatically switch between solar-only and grid modes
- Save hundreds of dollars each year on energy costs
We’ll configure your system so it works seamlessly with your inverter — letting you drive on sunshine and make the most of your investment.
🏡 Case Study – Maddingley Installation
When Sophie from Maddingley bought a Hyundai IONIQ 5, she wanted to charge it directly from her 6.6 kW solar array.
We installed a Zappi V2.1 smart charger in her garage, linked it to her Fronius inverter, and set up load management on her switchboard. Now Sophie charges 100% from solar most days and has cut her grid usage by over 60%.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does EV charger installation cost in Bacchus Marsh?
Installation costs vary depending on your setup, charger choice, and whether switchboard upgrades are needed. Most installations range between $1,500 and $3,500. We provide free quotes after assessing your property.
How long does installation take?
Most EV charger installations are completed in one day, typically 3-6 hours depending on the complexity of the job.
Do I need 3-phase power?
Not necessarily. Single-phase power is sufficient for most home charging needs, providing 7kW charging speeds. 3-phase power allows faster charging (up to 22kW) but isn't essential for overnight charging.
Will my charger work with any EV?
Most chargers work with all EVs using the Type 2 connector (the Australian standard). Tesla vehicles can use Tesla Wall Connectors or universal Type 2 chargers with an adapter.
Can I charge from my solar panels?
Absolutely. Smart chargers like the Zappi can prioritize solar charging, helping you maximize your solar investment and reduce charging costs.
Do you handle council permits?
We manage all electrical compliance and certification. For most standard installations, council permits aren't required, but we'll advise you if your property needs one.
