EV Charger Installation Kent
Home and workplace EV charger installation across Kent, London and the South East. OZEV grant advice, fully certified installers.
With more drivers switching to electric vehicles, having a reliable home or workplace charger is essential. DCC Electrics installs EV charge points for homes and businesses across Kent, London and the South East.
We are fully certified to install all major brands including Pod Point, Ohme, Wallbox, Zappi and more. We also advise on OZEV grants and tariff optimisation.
Our installations begin with a thorough site assessment. We evaluate your existing consumer unit, supply capacity, cable routing, and the best mounting location for your charger. Every installation is carried out by NICEIC-registered engineers and comes with full certification.
For homeowners, a dedicated EV charger is significantly faster and safer than using a standard three-pin socket. Most domestic units deliver 7kW, which can fully charge a typical EV overnight. For businesses, we design multi-bay systems with load balancing to ensure your supply can handle multiple vehicles charging simultaneously.
We take care of everything from initial consultation and DNO notification to final commissioning and handover. Our team stays up to date with the latest EV charging standards, smart charging regulations, and available government support schemes.
What We Offer
Home EV charger installation (7kW–22kW)
Workplace and fleet charger installations
OZEV grant application guidance
Load assessment and supply upgrade advice

Expert Knowledge
Types of EV Charger Installation
Tethered Chargers
A tethered charger has a built-in cable that plugs directly into your vehicle. These are the most convenient option for daily use, eliminating the need to fetch a cable from the car.
Universal Socket Chargers
Universal chargers use a Type 2 socket and require you to supply your own cable. They offer flexibility if you have multiple EVs with different connectors or prefer to keep your cable in the car.
7kW Single-Phase Home Chargers
The standard for most UK homes, a 7kW charger can add approximately 25–30 miles of range per hour. Perfect for overnight charging of most family EVs and hybrids.
22kW Three-Phase Chargers
Delivering up to 22kW, these chargers are ideal for properties with three-phase supplies, commercial premises, or households with multiple EVs needing faster turnaround.
Smart Chargers
Smart chargers connect to WiFi and allow you to schedule charging during off-peak hours, track energy usage, and integrate with solar panels or home battery storage systems.
Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) Ready
V2G-ready chargers allow your EV to feed stored energy back into your home or the grid during peak times. We install future-proof systems ready for this emerging technology.
