Why Every Sydney Home Needs a Personalised EV Charging Solution
If you’re still relying on public EV charging stations, chances are you’ve faced long waits, unreliable uptime, or peak-hour congestion. Sydney’s public charging network is growing, but it still can’t compete with the convenience of charging your EV at home. That’s where we come in.
We help homeowners eliminate the guesswork. Whether you're driving a Tesla Model, Mercedes-Benz EQ, or another popular EV brand, we install the right charger for your car, property, and power supply—be it single-phase EV or 3-phase.
Unlike a standard PowerPoint presentation or a basic portable charger, a dedicated EV charger offers faster charging, built-in safety features, and energy-efficient use of AC power or DC charging technology. You’ll also reduce overall electricity usage by leveraging off-peak hours, load balancing, and even excess solar from your home solar system.
Want to save money over time? Investing in a home charging station for electric vehicles is the ideal solution. With the ability to charge overnight and optimise time of use tariffs, you’ll significantly cut costs compared to petrol or public charging.
Eliminate charging queues by opting for a personalized EV solution at home today.
How Our EV Charger Installation Process Works—Safe, Smooth, Certified
We make electric car charger installation seamless, secure, and compliant with Australian standards—because your EV deserves the best from the very first charge.
Free On-Site Assessment
The first step in installing your electric car charger is a free on-site assessment. Our licensed Sydney electricians thoroughly inspect your consumer mains, fuse box, and existing electrical systems to evaluate the current capacity of your home’s power supply. Whether you have single-phase power or need to upgrade to three-phase, we ensure the electric vehicle charging infrastructure is ready to support a safe and future-ready EV charger setup.
Customised Recommendation Report
Not all EVs are the same. From a Tesla Model 3 to a Mercedes-Benz EQC, each vehicle has unique charging specs, plug types, and charging modes. We don't provide generic solutions. Our team will create a tailored plan that takes into account your electric car model, daily usage, home solar system, and energy habits. Whether you want to make the most of off-peak hours, integrate with excess solar, or enable load balancing, we’ll help you choose the best charger from top-rated EV charger brands.
Transparent Quote
Do you have any questions about the cost of installing an electric vehicle supply equipment unit at your home? We believe in full transparency. After the site visit and report, you’ll receive an upfront, obligation-free quote outlining the installation cost, any potential upgrades (such as moving from a standard power point to a dedicated EV charger), and accessories, including an LCD screen, charging cable, or home EV charging station enhancements. We factor in real-world variables—no guesswork, no inflated rates.
Professional Installation
Once approved, we will proceed with the charger installation on your chosen installation date. Our team mounts the home EV charger in the ideal location—whether that’s your garage, carport, or outdoor wall. We handle all the electrical wiring, integrate safety switches, and test the connection with your electricity network. We then calibrate the charger to ensure faster charging speeds for your phase power system (either single-phase EV or 3-phase). We complete every job in accordance with Australian consumer law and the latest compliance standards.
Post-Install Support
Once the power is on, our work doesn't end there. After a successful electric car charger installation, you’ll receive a full compliance certificate for insurance and warranty purposes. Our team will walk you through how to charge an EV, manage peak demand, adjust charging speeds, and track energy usage. We also provide advice on optimising for solar power, syncing with your electricity retailer, and reducing costs using time-of-use tariffs. You’ll also get ongoing access to tech support, in case you ever need troubleshooting help.

Choosing the Right EV Charger—What Sydney Drivers Need to Know
Choosing the ideal EV charger for your home isn’t just about plugging in and powering up—it’s about finding a smart, efficient, and future-ready solution tailored to your vehicle, lifestyle, and energy goals. With the rise of electric vehicles across Sydney, more homeowners are realising the value of a professionally installed home EV charger that matches both current use and future plans.
Wall-Mounted vs Pedestal Chargers
Most home EV charging installations are wall-mounted, saving space while offering convenient access in garages and carports. However, for homes with open driveways or limited wall access, pedestal chargers can be an elegant and weather-resistant alternative. We help you weigh up the pros and cons, considering everything from aesthetics to ease of daily use.
Tethered vs Untethered Chargers
A tethered charger includes a fixed charging cable, making daily top-ups as easy as grabbing and plugging in. On the other hand, untethered EV chargers allow you to swap plug types or replace a damaged cable without hassle. It also makes your setup neater and compatible with multiple EV models—ideal for homes with more than one electric car.
Single Phase vs 3 Phase EV Chargers
The charging speeds of your EV at home depend heavily on your property’s phase power. A standard single-phase power setup typically provides 7 kW, which is sufficient for overnight charging. However, if you require faster charging, especially for high-performance vehicles like Tesla, or you need to charge multiple EVs, 3-phase chargers can deliver up to 22kW.
Smart Features
Today’s home EV charging stations do more than supply electricity. They monitor energy usage, enable load balancing, and even work with solar power to utilise excess solar during the day. Many also offer smart scheduling, allowing you to charge during off-peak hours and save on your energy bills. We install chargers with LCD screens, Wi-Fi control, and mobile apps for ultimate convenience.
Compatibility and Safety
Not all chargers work with all electric vehicle supply equipment, so it’s crucial to select a unit that aligns with Australian consumer law and your vehicle’s charging modes. We ensure every installation is compliant with national standards and fully compatible with all Tesla wall connectors, Jet Charge systems, and most modern EVs, including Mercedes-Benz, Hyundai, BMW, and more.

3-Phase vs. Single-Phase EV Charging
—What’s Right for Your Sydney Home?
When planning your electric car charger installation, one of the most crucial decisions is choosing between single-phase and three-phase EV charging. This decision impacts how quickly you can charge an EV, how much power your home EV charger can deliver, and how it integrates with your property’s power supply, electric vehicle supply equipment, and home solar system.
What is Single-Phase EV Charging?
A single-phase EV charger utilizes standard single-phase power, which is already available in most Sydney homes. This setup typically delivers up to 7.4 kW of AC power, providing a full charge overnight—perfect for most electric vehicles. It’s a budget-friendly option that works well if you have one EV at home and don't need rapid top-ups.
When to Choose 3-Phase EV Charging?
Do you own a high-performance electric vehicle, such as a Tesla Model or a Mercedes-Benz EQS? Alternatively, you might own two electric cars, manage a large household, or desire faster charging. A 3-phase EV charger delivers up to 22kW of direct current (DC power) or high-speed AC charging, drastically reducing your wait time. This setup also integrates seamlessly with large home solar systems, enabling you to charge your EV using excess solar energy and save money.
Understanding Energy Usage and Load Balancing
Installing a 3-phase charger or upgrading from a single-phase setup may increase your energy usage, so it’s important to consider peak demand, time-of-use tariffs, and compatibility with your electricity network and electricity retailer. At Makgrid, we assess your full electrical systems, check your consumer mains, and help you avoid surprise extra costs by offering smart load balancing and usage-monitoring solutions.
Compatibility with Most Modern EVs
The good news? Most modern EVs—from Tesla to Hyundai, BYD, Polestar, and beyond—are compatible with both single-phase and 3-phase charging. What changes is how quickly they can top up. For example, a Tesla Wall Connector paired with a 3-phase power supply can add up to 120km of range per hour.
Equipment Safety and Australian Compliance
Regardless of the choice you make, ensuring safety is paramount. Whether you choose a dedicated EV charger, home electric vehicle charger, or a home EV charging station, our team provides everything that meets Australian consumer law and is installed by licensed, insured professionals. We assist you in selecting the most suitable charger, ensuring the correct type of plug, and evaluating your home's charging capabilities to provide you with complete peace of mind.

EV Charger Installation Cost in Sydney—What to Expect and Budget For
When it comes to EV charger installation in Sydney, one of the first questions homeowners ask is, How much does it cost? The answer depends on a range of factors, including your existing switchboard and circuit breakers, as well as the location where the home charger will be mounted. If your current phase power supply isn’t compatible with the EV charger requirements, upgrades like a three-phase connection may be needed, which can affect overall installation costs.
A portable charger installation will naturally cost less than a fixed wall-mounted unit, but it offers slower charging speeds and limited features. In contrast, wall units provide faster charging, smart load management, and durability, making them a more reliable long-term investment. We help you understand which setup suits your electric vehicle usage and lifestyle.
Full installation pricing includes parts, labor, and compliance documentation. We never spring hidden fees. Whether you're upgrading to a home EV charger, adding a dedicated charge point, or integrating with solar power, we calculate everything clearly before the job begins.
There may also be rebates or tax incentives available for electric vehicle charging infrastructure in Sydney, especially for those using a Jet Charge system or integrating with home solar. We recommend checking with your energy provider or state government portal for the latest eligibility and support options.
We ensure complete compliance with
Australian Consumer Law during installation, ensuring no surprises.
EV Charger Safety Matters—Why Compliance Isn’t Optional
Your EV charger isn't just a convenience—it's a high-powered system that integrates with your home's electrical infrastructure. That means safety is critical. At Makgrid, all our installations comply with Australian Consumer Law and the AS/NZS 3000:2018 wiring rules, ensuring your setup is future-proof, legally sound, and covered by official consumer guarantees.
We install industry-grade RCDs (residual current devices), surge protectors, and fully compliant earthing systems with every job. This protects not only your electric vehicle but also your property, electrical appliances, and loved ones. It's not just about ticking boxes—it's about peace of mind.
We also ensure your home EV charging station meets fire safety standards and is designed to withstand local weather conditions if installed outdoors. Every connection, charging cable, and charger is tested rigorously before handover.
DIY installs or unlicensed tradies not only void warranties and insurance, but they can also expose your home to serious risks. Our fully insured, licensed electricians carry out every EV charging job with precision, professionalism, and full accountability.
