Extras & when they apply

If your setup needs more than the standard scope, we’ll flag it early and itemise the costs clearly before we book your slot.

Common extras

  • Cable runs beyond 5m or routes via lofts/garages/outbuildings
  • Additional drilling, ducting or minor groundworks to reach parking
  • Consumer unit changes (no spare ways, SPD requirements, specific RCD/RCBO types)
  • 4G connectivity where driveway Wi-Fi is unreliable
  • Pedestals/mounting posts if a wall mount isn’t suitable

Scenarios that usually need a chat first

  • Three-phase supplies or planned upgrades
  • Leasehold/landlord permissions, shared bays or parking courts
  • Long external runs needing SWA or trenching

Smart charging & off-peak tariffs

We’ll set schedules so most charging lands in the cheaper night window, protect your main fuse with load settings, and show you how to keep control from the app.

  • Pairing & account linking (Ohme, Easee, Hypervolt, Zappi)
  • Schedule creation for Intelligent/Go-style tariffs
  • Load management to avoid nuisance trips on busy evenings
  • Connectivity check with 4G options if required (extra)

FAQs — quick answers

What’s covered by the standard install in Bicester?

It includes a tidy surface-run up to 5 metres, one masonry penetration, mounting, protection checks, app pairing and commissioning. Anything beyond that is priced transparently so you only pay for what you need.

How long will the install take on the day?

Straightforward driveways are usually 2–4 hours. Long runs, board works or groundworks can add time — we’ll confirm your plan in advance.

Do you handle load settings and PEN fault protection?

Yes. We configure load management and ensure PEN fault protection in line with the Smart Charging Regulations, with tests documented at handover.

Can you set me up on Octopus Intelligent Go?

We’ll pair the charger, create schedules and show you how to target the cheap window without over-charging.

What if I’m more than 5 metres from the consumer unit?

No problem. We’ll price the extra distance per metre and any containment neatly. Photos help us quote accurately.

Tethered or untethered — what suits Bicester homes best?

Tethered is grab-and-go; untethered keeps things discreet near pavements. We’ll recommend based on your parking and how you use the space.

Can you work with my solar or battery?

Yes — Zappi supports surplus-only modes; Ohme, Easee and Hypervolt work well with time-of-use tariffs and monitoring. We’ll set expectations if you’ve got storage or export in the mix.
