The prices above are for labour and materials only. The charger unit itself is additional. Here's a rough guide to charger costs in New Zealand:
EVnex E2 (NZ-made, 7.4 kW): $600 – $900
Wallbox Pulsar Plus (7.4 kW, smart): $900 – $1,200
myenergi Zappi (7.4 kW, solar-smart): $1,100 – $1,500
Rolec EV (7.4 kW, weatherproof): $800 – $1,100
We can supply any of these units, or we'll install a charger you've already purchased. We'll advise on what's best for your EV and situation.
Most installations fall within the price ranges above. A few things can push costs higher:
Long cable runs — if the switchboard is at the front of the house and the garage is at the back, the cable run may be 30m+. More cable = more cost.
Switchboard upgrade — old fuse boards or full switchboards need upgrading before a new circuit can be added. This adds $800–$1,500 but is money well spent.
Trenching — if the cable needs to go underground to reach a detached garage, trenching is required. We'll quote this separately.
Three-phase charger — if you want a 22 kW three-phase charger, this needs three-phase power at your property and more complex wiring. We can advise.
With a 7.4 kW home charger and standard Canterbury electricity rates (approx. $0.30/kWh):
Nissan Leaf (40 kWh):
~$12 for a full charge
Tesla Model 3 (60 kWh):
~$18 for a full charge
BYD Atto 3 (60 kWh):
~$18 for a full charge
Compare to $80–$100+ to fill a petrol tank. The charger pays for itself fast.
