📞 0419 014 146From single-phase home chargers to three-phase commercial stations, we handle every type of EV charger installation across Capalaba and Brisbane Bayside.
The most popular option for Capalaba homeowners. We install a dedicated 32A circuit from your switchboard to a wall-mounted EV charger — typically in your garage, carport or driveway.
Most Capalaba homes run on single phase power, which supports a 7.4kW charger — enough to fully charge a typical EV in 6–8 hours overnight.
For faster charging, a three phase installation delivers up to 22kW — charging your EV in just 2–4 hours. Ideal for homes with existing three phase power.
Not all Capalaba homes have three phase power. Aaron will check your supply during the initial assessment and advise on the best option.
EV charging for businesses, workplaces, apartment complexes and shopping centres across Capalaba and Brisbane Bayside.
Commercial installations often require electrical design, load management systems and coordination with body corporates or building managers. We handle the full process.
Many older Capalaba homes need a switchboard upgrade before an EV charger can be safely installed.
1970s–80s ceramic fuse boards in Capalaba and Alexandra Hills homes can't handle the additional 30A–40A load of an EV charger. Upgrading your switchboard improves safety and unlocks capacity for EV charging, air conditioning and more.

Practical considerations for EV charger installation in Capalaba and Brisbane Bayside homes.
Most Capalaba homes built before the 2000s run on single phase power, which supports a 7.4kW EV charger — delivering a full charge overnight. Newer homes or properties with air conditioning and pool equipment may already have three phase, supporting chargers up to 22kW.
Aaron checks your power supply type during the site assessment. If you're unsure whether you have single or three phase, look at your meter — three phase meters have three rows of digits or three current transformer (CT) clamps.
Homes in Capalaba, Alexandra Hills and Birkdale built in the 1970s and 1980s typically have 60A switchboards with ceramic fuses — not enough to safely add a 32A EV charger circuit. Adding an EV charger to an undersized switchboard can cause nuisance tripping and creates a fire risk.
We upgrade these to modern 80A or 100A switchboards with safety switches and circuit breakers as part of the switchboard + EV charger package. One visit, one electrician, fully compliant. Learn more about our electrical services across Capalaba and Brisbane Bayside.
Capalaba averages over 280 days of sunshine per year — ideal for solar-integrated EV charging. Smart chargers like the Fronius Wattpilot can be configured to charge only when excess solar power is available, meaning you drive on virtually free electricity.
Even without a battery, a 6.6kW solar system in Capalaba typically exports 15–25kWh per day during peak hours — more than enough to charge a standard EV. We configure the charger to maximise solar self-consumption so you pay as little as possible.
EV chargers are weather-rated (IP65 or higher) and can be installed indoors or outdoors. The most common locations in Capalaba homes are inside the garage, under a carport, or on an exterior wall near the driveway. Cable routing from the switchboard determines the best position.
For longer cable runs (switchboard at the front, charging point at the rear), we use UV-rated conduit and heavy-duty cable to maintain safety and performance. The site assessment covers all routing options and costs upfront.

Common questions about EV charger installation for Capalaba and Brisbane Bayside homeowners.
A typical home EV charger installation in Capalaba costs between $1,200 and $3,000 depending on charger type, switchboard condition, and distance from the switchboard to the charging location. This includes charger supply, dedicated circuit installation, and compliance testing. If your switchboard needs an upgrade, that may add $500 to $1,500. We provide a clear, upfront quote before any work begins.
It depends on your current switchboard capacity. Many older Capalaba homes built in the 1970s to 1990s have switchboards that can't safely support the additional 7kW to 22kW load. Aaron will assess your switchboard during the initial site visit and let you know if an upgrade is needed. If your switchboard already has adequate capacity and safety switches, no upgrade is required.
Technically yes, but it's extremely slow and not recommended. A standard 10A power point delivers only about 2.3kW — charging a typical EV takes 20 to 40 hours. A dedicated EV charger on a 32A circuit delivers 7.4kW (single phase) or up to 22kW (three phase), reducing charge time to 4 to 8 hours. A dedicated circuit is also much safer for long-duration charging.
We install all major EV charger brands including Tesla Wall Connector, Fronius Wattpilot, ABB Terra, Ocular, Wallbox Pulsar Plus, and other AS/NZS certified units. We can also install chargers you've purchased yourself, provided they meet Australian safety standards.
Yes. Under Queensland law, all electrical work including EV charger installation must be performed by a licensed electrician. This includes running the dedicated circuit, connecting the charger, and ensuring compliance with AS/NZS 3000 wiring rules. DIY installation is illegal and dangerous. Amplus Electrical & Air holds Queensland Electrical Licence No. 1500996.
Yes. We install commercial EV charging stations for businesses, apartment complexes, shopping centres, and workplaces across Capalaba and the wider Brisbane Bayside area. Commercial installations may require three phase power, load management systems, and network connectivity. We handle the full process from design to commissioning.
Yes. Smart EV chargers like the Fronius Wattpilot can be configured to charge using excess solar power, meaning you drive on virtually free electricity. Capalaba averages over 280 sunny days per year, and a typical 6.6kW solar system exports more than enough power to charge a standard EV during daylight hours. We install and configure solar-compatible chargers to maximise solar self-consumption.
A standard home EV charger installation typically takes 3 to 5 hours, including running the dedicated circuit, mounting the charger, and compliance testing. If a switchboard upgrade is also required, the total job may take a full day. Aaron completes most residential installations in a single visit — so you can start charging the same evening.
