Rapid EV charging installation — EV charging-point installer

Describe which vehicles will charge and how quickly they need to return to service. A rapid charger is a site-infrastructure project rather than just a faster domestic wallbox, so provide dwell times, expected utilisation and available power information before asking for a fixed equipment-and-installation price.

Service scope

Assessment and installation of higher-rate charging infrastructure where justified by vehicle capability and the site's operating requirements. The catalogue does not define a universal power threshold or AC/DC technology, so the intended charger type, supply and operational duty must be specified rather than inferred from rapid.

What is normally included

  • Higher-rate charging feasibility review
  • Vehicle and infrastructure matching
  • Defined equipment installation and commissioning

What is not included

  • Universal rapid-charging compatibility
  • Unspecified high-voltage or network work

Typical tasks

  • Define target vehicles and charging duty
  • Review available site power
  • Compare compatible charger architectures
  • Coordinate infrastructure and civil requirements
  • Test the commissioned charging arrangement

What to include in your brief

  • Vehicle and connector requirements
  • Target dwell time
  • Expected daily sessions
  • Site supply information
  • Space and access constraints

Choosing the right professional

Ask the provider to state the proposed technology and its compatibility with the vehicles, not simply a headline power rating. Verify what supply reinforcement, communications, maintenance and operator arrangements are needed for the intended use.

Important considerations

  • Vehicle acceptance limits can prevent advertised equipment power being achieved
  • Network and civil-work dependencies can dominate the programme
