Botany blends original workers' cottages with light industry and a wave of new apartment development near the port and airport. It's gentrifying fast, EV interest is high, but parking and wiring shape every job: cottages often have no off-street parking or century-old wiring, while the new buildings need strata-coordinated charging.
EV Charger Installation in Botany
A standard 7kW single-phase EV charger install in a Botany house typically runs $1,400–$2,500 fitted where there's off-street parking. Older cottage wiring or a board upgrade combines at $3,200–$5,200. Apartment and strata car-space installs are quoted after a building assessment.

App Setup & Handover
Before you order a charger online or sign with a national fixed-price installer, there are six things every Botany EV owner should check.
- Your cottage has no off-street parking: Common in Botany. A cable across a public footpath isn't compliant — we'll talk through the realistic options.
- Your wiring is original to an old cottage: Century-old wiring and an old board usually need attention before adding a 7kW load.
- You're in a new apartment near the port: Charging needs owners-corporation approval and correct metering — we handle the assessment.
- Your parking is a rear-lane garage: Common here. We route and mechanically protect the run to the lane.
- Your car space is in a basement: Cable routing and load-sharing across spaces need planning — we design it properly.
- You want compliance for insurance: A CCEW and Level 2 install protects your claim — important with older Botany wiring.


Real overnight charging
A proper 7kW dedicated charger adds ~280 km of range overnight — versus ~50 km from a regular 10A wall socket. Big difference for daily commuters.
Switchboard upgraded properly
Where it's needed, we upgrade the board to AS/NZS 3000 — so the EV charger isn't the weakest link sitting on a century-old cottage board.
Tesla app integration
Tesla Wall Connector pairs with your car, your home Wi-Fi and the Tesla app — scheduled charging, off-peak rates, household load monitoring.
Solar-friendly
Where there's roof space, Zappi, Wallbox Pulsar Plus and Schneider EVlink Pro can prioritise solar so the car charges from your panels — though many Botany cottages are best suited to scheduled off-peak charging.
Future-proof for the next car
We size cable and sub-circuit for the bigger charger so when you upgrade to a 22kW dual-phase, the cable doesn't need to be ripped out and redone.
Insurance-grade compliance
CCEW + Level 2 install means your home insurer doesn't have grounds to refuse a claim if there's ever an electrical incident around the charger.
