EV Charger Installation In Harrow
We install EV chargers across Harrow, including HA1, HA2 and HA3 and surrounding areas. Whether you’re in a 1930s Metroland semi, a Rayners Lane terrace, a Northwick Park flat or a newer development near Harrow-on-the-Hill, we assess the property and your requirements before specifying the right equipment for the job. Every installation is designed in line with current regulations, with cables and circuit protection selected to suit the property.
EV charger installation across Harrow
Although much of Harrow is known for its 1930s Metroland housing, continued development over the decades has created a mix of traditional semis, terraces, converted garages and modern apartment blocks. A common issue we encounter in older homes is where the original garage has been converted into living space, leaving the main supply position in the middle of the property with no direct access to an external wall.
In these situations, installation isn’t just about mounting a charger near the driveway. We assess internal routes, use inspection cameras to rod beneath suspended floors where possible, and plan discreet containment runs where required — including routing behind fitted furniture or across internal spaces where necessary. The goal is to deliver a clean installation without compromising the aesthetic of the property.

The installation process in Harrow
Every job starts with a survey. We assess the existing consumer unit, earthing arrangement, load capacity and cable routing. In older HA2 and HA3 properties, this often includes checking PME suitability and containment routes along external walls or shared driveways.
Once eligibility and permissions are confirmed, the charger is installed, tested and commissioned in line with current regulations. Where a grant applies, we submit the evidence through the OZEV route so the deduction is handled automatically. You do not reclaim funds yourself.

Permissions
