Charger installation fees explained

We can only install a charger if you have private off-street parking like a driveway or garage. If you choose this offer, we’ll send you a link to an online application form so you can tell us more about your home set up.

Standard installation: Included

No extra cost. Charger is mounted to a wall, and we’ll use up to 10m of cable.

Standard Plus Installation: £99

Covers mounting your charger to a wall, and up to 20m of cable.

Enhanced Installation: £189

Covers mounting your charger to a wall, and up to 30m of cable.

Bespoke Installation

Covers things like more than 30m of cable, and fitting cables underneath floorboards.

Charger installation wait times can range from 4 to 10 weeks, depending on where you live.

Every home is different, and every customer has their own preferred setup, so it makes sense that every charger installation is unique.

There are a number of questions to consider when installing your EV charger, from where you want the chargepoint to be, how you want it to look, and where your fuse box is situated. So what kind of things do we take into account when giving you a quote?

Does your charger of choice have a tethered lead (attached to the chargepoint) or do you want an untethered charger?
How long does the cable that runs from the fuse box to the chargepoint need to be?
Where do you want the charger to be installed?
Aesthetically, do you want the cable hidden where it runs along the wall inside your house,
Do you want your cable to run underground outside your house?

We'll be able to work out some of this information such as whether the electricity supply coming into the house is suitable for a car charger, or whether the fuse box might need an additional fuse to accommodate the EV charger.

At Octopus we can be pretty flexible when it comes to meeting your needs, but as a rule of thumb the longer the installation takes us the higher the overall install cost will be.

Your cable will need to be long enough to comfortably reach your EV from your chargepoint. Depending on the brand you chose, the cables of our tethered EV chargers are between 5 and 8 metres long. Generally, this is enough for most houses where the box is on the outside of the house and the car is parked on a driveway.

Usually, you don’t. If you have access to private parking, such as a driveway on your property, you can install a chargepoint without a permit. But it’s worth checking with your local authorities if you’re looking to install your charger in a shared space or if cables need to be trailed across pavements. They’ll also be able to advise on additional steps you’d need to take (e.g. using rubber cable covers).
