EV charger installation in Figtree NSW

What we see in Figtree homes

Figtree is largely 1960s-1990s brick. Switchboard capacity varies a lot street to street, and an older board is the most common reason a quote changes on site. VERIFY.

Endeavour Energy is the distributor for the Illawarra - not Ausgrid, which covers Sydney and the Hunter. Most single-phase 7 kW chargers need notification only; three-phase needs a formal connection application.

Worth knowing locally. The escarpment side of Figtree has some long driveways. Cable run length is the variable that moves the price here.

Permits and inspection in Figtree

Electrical network notifications for Figtree are issued by Endeavour Energy, and power is supplied by Endeavour Energy. We pull the network notification in our name, book the inspection and meet the inspector on site. You do not need to file anything or take a day off work for it.

Neighbourhoods we work in

We install regularly across Mount Keira, Mangerton and Unanderra, along with the rest of Figtree — around 7,000 people and growing.

Common questions in Figtree

Do I need a network notification for an EV charger in Figtree?
Yes. Electrical network notifications in Figtree go through Endeavour Energy, and the install has to pass inspection. We pull the network notification and meet the inspector — it is part of the job, not an extra.
How long does an install take in Figtree?
Three to five hours for a standard install, usually finished in one visit. We are 8 minutes from the Wollongong CBD, so scheduling is rarely the bottleneck.
Will my Figtree home need a switchboard upgrade?
Figtree is largely 1960s-1990s brick. Switchboard capacity varies a lot street to street, and an older board is the most common reason a quote changes on site. VERIFY.
Can you install a charger I bought myself?
Yes — Tesla, ChargePoint, Wallbox, Emporia, Grizzl-E and most others. Our install price is the same whether you supply the unit or we do.
