Home EV charger installation across Poole, Broadstone, Merley and Canford Cliffs.
Home EV charger installations in Poole usually come down to one question first: where the car actually parks, and how far that is from the consumer unit. Electrical Exchange covers Broadstone, Merley, Canford Cliffs, the harbourside and everywhere between, working out the answer at a free on-site survey rather than guessing from the postcode.
Whether a property has its own driveway or relies on street parking is a property-by-property question, not something to assume from which part of Poole it's in. A driveway or garage close to the consumer unit usually keeps things to a straightforward dedicated circuit with a short cable run, but a longer cable run or street parking doesn't rule the job out either, and a separate OZEV grant exists for cross-pavement charging where off-street parking isn't an option. Which of these applies to your home gets confirmed at the free survey, not guessed beforehand.

Request a FREE Home SurveyPoole is a short drive from our Christchurch base, and we factor realistic travel time into booking your free survey rather than pretend it isn't a drive, so you get an accurate appointment time rather than an optimistic one. While there, we check your parking, existing consumer unit and supply capacity, and confirm your OZEV grant eligibility in the same visit.
We help you choose the right charger for your property, then handle the OZEV chargepoint grant application on your behalf before any work begins.
Our qualified electricians install the charger, wiring and any consumer unit upgrade needed - most home installations are completed in a single visit.
The installation is tested and commissioned, and you receive full handover paperwork including your OZEV grant confirmation - ready to start charging straight away.
A starting point - get in touch if your question isn't answered here.
Yes, the whole town, from Broadstone and Merley through to Canford Cliffs and the harbourside. The same free survey, fixed quote and grant-application process applies wherever in Poole you're based.
Not really. Poole is a short drive from our Christchurch base, which we build into scheduling rather than treat as a delay. Get in touch and we'll find a slot that works, usually within a few days.
Not necessarily. Off-street parking isn't a universal requirement, it's the distance and cable route to your consumer unit that mainly affects cost and complexity, and a longer run is usually still workable. If you don't have a driveway, there's a separate OZEV grant, currently worth up to £500 until 31 March 2027, specifically for an approved cross-pavement charging solution. We'll confirm what applies to your property at the free survey.
Home chargers with off-street parking generally already had permitted development rights before May 2025; the changes that month relaxed those rights further rather than creating them from scratch. Chargers within the curtilage of a listed building are excluded, and a property inside one of Poole's 16 conservation areas should be checked for an Article 4 direction or other local restriction. We confirm your specific property's position at the free survey rather than assume a general rule applies.
The engineers who survey and install your charger are the same ones you'd call afterwards, not a subcontractor who's moved on to the next job. Being based a short drive away in Christchurch means that visit doesn't come with a long wait either.
It depends on your existing electrics, the charger you choose and how far the cable run is from your consumer unit, so we don't quote blind. A free survey gets you a detailed, fixed price, with any OZEV grant you qualify for applied before that figure is finalised.
Eligibility comes down to your circumstances and property, typically renters, flat owners and those needing an on-street charging solution, rather than where in Poole you live. As an OZEV-approved installer we handle the paperwork for you, worth up to £500 towards the cost.
