What We Do
We make home EV charging simple.
Current Electrical Innovations supplies and installs home EV chargers across Canberra and surrounds. One local team looks after everything, from choosing the right charger to the final safety check.
1. Free quote and site assessment
Tell us what you drive and where you’d like to charge. We assess your switchboard, power supply and cable route, then give you a clear written quote with no surprise costs.
2. Charger supply
We recommend a charger that suits your vehicle, your home and your budget. Already bought one? We’re happy to install it.
3. Licensed installation
Our licensed electricians install your charger safely and to Australian standards, and tidy up when they’re done. Most standard installs take just a few hours.
4. Smart setup
We can set your charger up for scheduled charging and, if you have rooftop solar, to make the most of your own power.
5. Handover and paperwork
We show you how everything works and provide the compliance documentation, so you’re ready to plug in from day one.

Frequently Asked Questions.
-
A standard power point charges slowly, often adding only 10 to 15 km of range per hour, and it isn’t designed to run at full load for hours at a time. A dedicated home charger is faster, safer, and lets you wake up to a full battery every morning.
-
Yes. We supply and install, so you get one point of contact from start to finish. We’ll recommend a charger that suits your vehicle, your home and your budget. If you’ve already bought a charger, we’re happy to install that too.
-
Most EVs sold in Australia use a Type 2 connector, and we’ll confirm yours before we recommend anything. The main choice is between a single-phase charger (typically up to 7 kW) and a three-phase charger (up to 22kW), depending on your home’s power supply and how quickly you want to charge.
-
It depends on your car’s battery size and the charger’s power. As a guide, a 7 kW charger can add around 40 km of range per hour, so most drivers get a full charge overnight. We’ll give you a realistic estimate for your car.
-
Often, yes, but we check first. We assess your switchboard, available capacity and wiring, and if an upgrade is needed we’ll explain why and quote it clearly before any work starts.
-
Yes. All work is carried out by licensed electricians and complies with Australian wiring standards. You’ll receive the required compliance paperwork when the job is done.
-
Most standard installations take a few hours. Jobs involving longer cable runs, switchboard upgrades or three-phase supply can take longer. We’ll confirm the timeframe when we quote.
-
In many cases, yes. Strata installations usually need approval from the body corporate, and we can help with the technical details and documentation to support your request.
-
Not necessarily, but smart chargers offer useful features like scheduling, usage tracking, and charging from rooftop solar. If you have solar panels, we can set your charger up to use your excess solar and cut your running costs.
-
A properly installed charger by a licensed electrician is a practical upgrade that many buyers and renters now look for. We recommend checking with your insurer if you have any specific concerns.
-
Yes. Our installation work is backed by our lifetime workmanship guarantee, and the charger itself comes with the manufacturer’s warranty.
-
Pricing depends on the charger you choose, the distance from your switchboard to the charging location, and whether any upgrades are needed. We provide a clear, written quote with no surprise costs. Contact us for a free, no-obligation estimation.
