WHAT THIS JOB COVERS

We assess the household load, switchboard capacity, parking position, cable route, solar and whether load management is required before recommending a charger. The quote covers the dedicated protected circuit, installation, testing and app setup. For charger types, charging speeds, solar-aware charging and installation details, see the full detail on EV charging.

LOCAL CONDITIONS

EV charging in Canterbury, in practice

Canterbury runs near 2600 people per square kilometre. Detached homes here generally have the spare board capacity for a dedicated charger circuit, or room to make some. At about 70 metres, Canterbury is low and level, with few site constraints on charger position.

Canterbury is around 10 kilometres out in Boroondara. Shorter average trips here mean a slower charger is often perfectly adequate, and cheaper. Canterbury sits inside Boroondara, and nothing about a home charger requires local approval.

A job in Canterbury usually sits alongside something we already have booked in Balwyn or Camberwell that week. In Boroondara, Canterbury occupies about 3 square kilometres. The 2021 census counted 7800 residents, and the postcode is 3126.

Worth knowing before we quote: In 1900 Snowden's estate was subdivided and sold off to form what is now Monomeath Avenue and residents such as notable architect Percey Kernot and prominent citizen George Coghill moved in. Housing age drives board capacity, which drives what charger you can run. Canterbury sits inside a block we cover properly rather than occasionally. The neighbouring suburbs on that run are Balwyn, Camberwell, Hawthorn East and Kew East.

The run from Boronia to Canterbury is about 18.7 kilometres west. That is a normal day for us, not a special trip. For context on the older parts of the suburb: == History == The railway station is in many ways responsible for the suburb's existence: before the opening of the railway to the City in 1882, the area was a semi-rural area.

On the older parts of the area: The first subdivision in the area came in 1885, when Michael Logan created the 'Claremont Park Estate' within the area of Canterbury Road, Bryson Street, Prospect Hill Road and Logan Street.

Ryan and Jack did a great job doing the electrical work on my new 4 head split system. They got the job done in no time, and my split systems were up and running. Once connected, Ryan made sure all 4 heads were working. Thanks guys, great job!
