I’m looking to have a charger installed at home and I’m struggling to decide how to proceed and would value the input of some experienced hands.
My (current) requirements are;
In addition to the technical requirements I have one other, I want a tidy install.
I don’t want conduit running everywhere or blown brick faces. The house is only a couple of years old (I know shame they didn’t run the cabling during the build) and is currently very clean with no cables dangling down and I’d like to keep it that way.
I fired off a couple of quote request emails to Zappi installers about a week ago and received fairly similar information requests.
I’ve had one quote back so far at £1800+vat (£2163).
They’ve got a few photos but don’t appear interested in planning the cable route before coming to site.
Does anyone know an electrician in the Cambridge/Essex area who is competent to install these things and is prepared come to site and agree cable routing before starting the job?
I don’t mind waiting.
I don’t mind paying (a reasonable figure relative to the effort required).

My (current) requirements are;
- three phase (may as well as we have 3-phase installed?)
- untethered - gives options for visitors/future additional charging requirements and I prefer the cleaner look when the cable is removed
- integration with solar to charge from existing PV panels during the summer month
- smart (potential to take advantage of octopus agile or similar in future)
