About This Service
Electric vehicles are becoming increasingly common across Melbourne, and home charging is by far the most convenient and cost-effective way to keep your EV topped up. Hands On Electrical Group installs dedicated home EV charging stations (Level 2 AC chargers) for all major EV brands across Metropolitan Melbourne.
We are certified installers for EVNEX and Ohme — two of Australia's most trusted smart home EV charger brands. A dedicated Level 2 charger delivers 7–22kW depending on your vehicle and charger model, compared to just 2.4kW from a standard 10A powerpoint. That means a full charge in 4–8 hours instead of 15+.
We assess your switchboard, run a dedicated 32A circuit, mount the charger unit, configure the app, and issue your Certificate of Electrical Safety — all in a single visit. All work complies with AS/NZS 3000 wiring standards.

Sound Familiar?
STILL CHARGING THE SLOW WAY?
Plugging into a standard wall outlet every night
A standard 10A powerpoint delivers around 2.4kW — that can take 15+ hours for a full charge. You bought an EV to save time, not lose it overnight.
Driving out of your way to find a public charger
Planning your week around public charging stations isn't freedom. It's the opposite. A home charger means you start every day with a full battery.
Waking up to a half-charged car
A slow overnight charge on a standard outlet often isn't enough, especially in winter when battery efficiency drops. A dedicated Level 2 home charger fills your battery while you sleep — every time.
Paying public charging rates when you could charge at home
Home charging costs a fraction of public rates. Smart chargers like EVNEX and Ohme let you schedule charging during off-peak tariff periods to save even more.
Arriving at a public charger and it's taken — or broken
It happens more than it should. Your own dedicated home charger is always available, always working, and always right there in your garage.
A dedicated home EV charger solves all of this. Installed by a licensed Melbourne electrician, done right the first time.
The Hands On Difference
WE KNOW WHEN YOU DON'T NEED A SWITCHBOARD UPGRADE
A lot of EV charger quotes come back with a switchboard upgrade tacked on. Sometimes it's genuinely necessary — but often it isn't. The difference is knowing what to look for. We assess your board, your circuits, and your load profile on-site and give you an honest answer.
Level 2 AC Charging: 7–22kW
A dedicated home EV charger delivers 7–22kW depending on your vehicle's onboard charger and your home's supply. Compare that to just 2.4kW from a standard 10A powerpoint — that's up to 9x faster.
Smart Load Management
Smart chargers like EVNEX and Ohme actively monitor your home's total power draw in real time. When your house is running the aircon, oven, and washing machine, the charger automatically dials back its output to stay within your board's limits — then ramps back up when demand drops.
Solar-Integrated Charging
EVNEX and Ohme chargers can be configured to prioritise your solar generation. When your panels are producing excess power, the charger uses that energy first — so you're filling your EV with free electricity from your roof.
AS/NZS 3000 Compliant
Every installation includes a dedicated 32A circuit, earth leakage protection (RCD), and a Certificate of Electrical Safety. All work is performed to AS/NZS 3000 wiring standards by our A-Grade licensed electricians.
