As electric vehicles (EVs) become more popular across Sydney, having an EV charger installed at home is no longer just a luxury, it’s quickly becoming a necessity!

At Gemelec Electrical Services, we specialise in safe, fast and fully compliant EV charger installations for both homes and businesses across Sydney and beyond.


So, what do you need to know about EV chargers, and why should you trust a licensed professional like Gemelec for the job?


What Is an EV Charger?

An EV charger is a device that supplies electric energy to recharge your electric vehicle’s battery. While you can plug an EV into a standard household outlet, these Level 1 chargers are slow and inefficient for daily use.


Most EV owners choose to install Level 2 chargers, which:

  • Charge your vehicle up to 10x faster

  • Are more energy efficient

  • Can be programmed for off-peak charging to save money


Why Install an EV Charger at Home?

Having your own EV charger gives you:

Convenience – No more waiting at public stations or worrying about availability

Speed – Top up overnight and start every day with a full battery

Safety – Purpose-built charging points reduce electrical risks

Property Value – Adds long-term value and future-readiness to your home


Whether you drive a Tesla, BYD, Hyundai Ioniq, Polestar or any other EV—our chargers are compatible with all major brands.


The Installation Process: What to Expect

At Gemelec, we make the process simple, safe and stress free.


1. Quote

We assess your property, switchboard capacity and recommend the best charging solution for your setup.


2. Charger Selection

If you don't already have one, we’ll help you choose from trusted brands and ensure the charger is suitable for your car, charging habits and electrical supply.


3. Installation

Our licensed electricians handle everything:

  • Switchboard upgrades (if needed)

  • Cable routing and mounting

  • Testing for safety and compliance

  • Optional app setup for smart features


4. Aftercare

We offer maintenance, troubleshooting, and support even after the job is done.


Why You Need a Licensed Electrician

EV chargers draw high amounts of power and a poor installation can be dangerous.

At Gemelec, we’re:

  • Fully licensed & insured

  • Experienced with all major charger brands

  • Compliant with NSW safety regulations

  • Available for 24/7 support if issues arise

This isn’t a DIY job—trust the pros to ensure your investment is safe and long-lasting.

  • Apartment complexes: Shared or individual charging bays
