Local EV charger Installers
Choosing a local electric car charger installer makes sense for many reasons. Firstly, you are likely to be able to find a personal recommendation from someone you trust to give you their honest opinion. Secondly, if the EV charger installer you choose is local, they will be on hand to help should you have any issues further down the line. When a national company is chosen it can be difficult to get them to return after the initial installation, simply because they cover such a large area, and their installers are not based nearby. A local EV charger installer will be in the best position to provide excellent aftercare. Here at PG Electrics Cwmbran, we come highly recommended by our many satisfied customers and are proud to offer a first-class service both during and after your electric charger installation.
Qualified electric charger installer
Any new electrical installation at your Cwmbran home should only be performed by a qualified and registered electrician. This is for your safety and to ensure the work is carried out in compliance with the relevant building regulations. It is also worth noting that many EV charger manufacturers warranties are only valid with an Electric Installation Certificate (EIC) from a competent electrician. Choosing a qualified electric charger installer will give you peace of mind that the job has been performed both expertly and safely. PG Electrics are fully qualified, NICEIC registered electricians in Cwmbran and can issue all the relevant documentation required when installing your electric car charger.
OZEV Approved installers
A great way to find a reputable electric charger installer near you is to look for one who is OZEV approved. OZEV (Office for Zero Emission Vehicles) is the government department in charge of overseeing the transfer to electric cars. The OZEV provides grants to encourage the transition to fully electric vehicles. In order to claim funding, an EV charger installation must be completed by an OZEV approved installer. To achieve OZEV approved status, installers must meet strict criteria and are thoroughly assessed. Even if you are not eligible for a grant, choosing an OZEV approved charger installer gives you added confidence in knowing they have been thoroughly vetted.
To become an OZEV approved installer, a qualified electrician will have provided the OZEV with the following:
- Proof of membership of an electrical registration scheme such as NICEIC
- Public liability insurance documentation
- Approval from EV charger manufacturer to install their equipment
- Evidence of EV charger installation training
