Can I install a 22kW charger at home in Scotland?

Check the car and the electricity supply before choosing the charger. A 22kW AC installation needs a suitable three-phase supply, and the vehicle must support that rate. Its advertised rapid DC charging speed is a different specification.

For a single-phase property, a 7kW-class charger is the usual starting point. Tell us how far you drive and how long the car is normally parked. That is more useful than assuming every battery will charge fully in one cheap overnight window.

Where three-phase supply is available, we can assess the charger, cable and other loads together. If a supply upgrade is needed, the network operator must establish the work and cost. We would not recommend an upgrade from a generic price on a website.

Bring the exact vehicle model and any plans for a second EV to the enquiry. We can explain what the installation would support now and what would need reassessing later.
