Great job
Good communication from the engineer on the day before installation and on the day itself. A very tidy job done. Explained the App and we’re up and running.
Only negative is that initial emails following payment went to my junk mail so missed the initial request for survey questionnaire.

Great engineer and easy to use charger
Great engineer, pleasant and very helpful. He explained everything and made sure that we were 100% happy with the installation and the charger before he left. Simple to use and simple to understand. Thank you.

Frequently asked questions about EV home charging
How much does an electric car home charging point installation cost?
A Pod Point Solo 3S home charger costs from £999 to install. In some cases, the price may be different due to subsidised pricing agreed with vehicle manufacturers.
A standard installation includes the following in the cost:
Mounting your charger: We'll help you find a convenient location and install the EV charger on a suitable, safe, permanent structure, such as a brick wall or a garage wall.
Cabling: Up to 15 metres of high-quality cabling to connect your charger to your electricity supply.
Cable trunking: Up to 3 metres of trunking can run from your electricity meter to the outside wall, keeping the cabling tidy.
Protection: Install an additional consumer unit with a Type B or C MCB and a Type A RCD (or a similar RCBO) if needed.
What's the difference between a tethered and a socketed charge point?
Tethered chargers have a cable permanently attached so you'll never have to think about where your cable is. You can simply park up and plug in.
A socketed charger has a socket for you to plug a separate cable into. Most new EVs come with a type 2 connector, but if you have a type 1, we recommend a socketed charger.
- Most new EVs come with a Type 2 connector, but it's worth checking before getting a tethered charge point
- A socketed charge point is a charging station with no cable
- Socketed charge points can charge any electric car with a fast charging cable
How long does it take to charge an electric car?
This depends on the size of your car battery and the speed of the charging point. With a 7kW charging point, it takes just under eight hours to fully charge an electric car with a 60kWh battery.
What do 3.6kW, 7kW and 22kW mean, when talking about car home chargers?
Kilowatt (kW) refers to the power rating of a home charge point. It's the maximum amount of power that can be drawn from the socket at any time. A 7kW home charger will charge your car three times faster than a three-pin plug.
What power rating should I use for my home socket?
In the UK, 3-7kW chargers are the most recommended popular choice. Some homes have a single-phase (AC) electricity supply and can support the additional 7kW load. Homes with a three-phase (AC) supply can use a more powerful charger of up to 22kW. You always need to check with the installer that your fuse board has enough spare capacity to support the additional load of a home charging station.
