Choose the right installer for your EV charge point
Most EV owners would not be able to get out and about without a dedicated home EV charge point, so having your own charging unit will save you time, and money, while increasing the value of your home.
When looking for an EV charge point, it is important to read reviews, research the company in question well and ask plenty of questions. Which? and Trusted trader membership and OZEV- approved installer status also ensure that your suppliers are the real deal and not cowboys.
Some untethered EV chargers do not come with a choice of EV charging cables. As such, you may need to purchase an alternative, be it type 2 to type 2 charging cables or a type 2 to 3 pin charging cable for domestic 3- pin charging.
All cables from EV Cable Shop come with 18-month warranties and free next-day delivery- making shopping for a safe EV charging cable easy and simple.
If you have any questions about which EV cable is right for you, feel free to contact our charging experts here at EV Cable Shop on 01744 886 305 or fill in our enquiry form and we will get back to you as soon as we can.
