Evnex certified installer

Accredited installer

Accredited by Evnex, not just stocking them

Evnex only issue their certified installer badge to electricians they have trained on the hardware and the commissioning software. It means we sit on their installer register, we reach their technical line rather than the public one, and a warranty claim on our work goes through without an argument about who fitted it.

It matters more than it sounds. Most Evnex faults we get called to on other people's work are not faulty chargers. They are a current transformer clamped on the wrong conductor, or load management never configured, so the charger either trips the house or quietly never ramps up.

  • Trained and registered on the Evnex installer program
  • Direct line to Evnex technical support, not the public queue
  • Commissioning done properly, so the warranty holds
  • Certificate of electrical safety issued for every install

How we do it

What we actually do on the day

  1. Check the switchboard first

    We look at your main switch rating, spare capacity and RCD arrangement before quoting. This is what stops a cheap quote turning into an expensive surprise halfway through.

  2. Quote the whole job, fixed

    Charger, cable run, circuit, mounting, commissioning and certificate in one number - not an hourly rate that grows once we open the wall.

  3. Run a dedicated circuit

    A charger needs its own protected circuit with the correct RCD type. We run it, terminate it and test it to AS/NZS 3000.

  4. Fit and configure overload protection

    The current transformer goes on the main supply and is configured against your actual load. Clamped wrong or skipped, the protection does nothing - this is the step most commonly missed.

  5. Set up solar diversion

    If you have solar we configure the charger to use surplus generation and stay until we have watched it divert, rather than leaving you to work out the app.

  6. Commission and hand over

    Pair it to your account, run a live charge session, walk you through scheduling and issue your certificate of electrical safety. It works the first night, not the third.

The range

Which Evnex suits your home

Four models sharing the same app, solar smarts and overload protection. What changes is speed, cable reach, connectivity and whether you have three-phase - and each of those changes what the install involves.

  • E2 Flex

    E2 Flex

    Smart charging with a future solar upgrade

    Power
    7.4kW
    Range
    Up to 50km per hour
    Cable
    5m

    Everyday EV drivers who want a simple, fast charger now and the option to add solar smarts later.

    What it means for the install: Same install as the Core. If you are planning solar later, tell us now and we will leave the CT and cabling ready so the upgrade is a visit, not a rewire.

  • E2 Core

    E2 Core

    Everyday smart charging with solar smarts

    Power
    7.4kW
    Range
    Up to 50km per hour
    Cable
    5m

    Homes with solar or a battery that want smarter scheduling to charge on cheaper, cleaner energy.

    What it means for the install: The common one. Single-phase, 32A circuit, CT on the main. Most Melbourne homes take it without a supply upgrade.

  • E2 Plus

    E2 Plus

    Longer cable and 4G connectivity

    Power
    7.4kW
    Range
    Up to 50km per hour
    Cable
    8m

    Larger or multi-EV homes needing more cable reach and a connection that does not depend on Wi-Fi coverage.

    What it means for the install: The 8m cable changes where we can mount it, which often saves running a longer circuit. The 4G means we are not depending on your Wi-Fi reaching the garage.

  • X22

    X22

    Three-phase charging at full speed

    Power
    22kW (three-phase)
    Range
    Up to 120km per hour
    Cable
    5m, or socketed

    Homes with three-phase supply, multi-EV households, workplaces and fleets needing high-speed charging and controlled access.

    What it means for the install: Needs three-phase at the board. We check that before quoting - if you are single-phase, the honest answer is a 7.4kW model rather than a supply upgrade you will not get value from.

The range

Why we fit Evnex over the cheap imports

We do not stock one brand and tell everyone it suits them. Evnex earns its place on the van for reasons that show up years after the invoice.

  • Built for our grid

    Designed and built in New Zealand for Australasian supply and conditions. No workarounds for local voltage quirks, no firmware written around a European tariff.

  • Overload protection as standard

    Every model measures whole-of-home draw and backs off before the main breaker trips. On most Melbourne homes that is the difference between adding a charger and upgrading your supply.

  • Solar diversion that gets used

    Charge on surplus solar only, or a blend of solar and grid. Set it once and the free kilometres arrive without you thinking about it.

  • Support that answers

    Local support seven days, and a hardware line for accredited installers. When something needs escalating, we can actually escalate it.

Evnex questions we get asked

How much does an Evnex installation cost?

It depends on your switchboard and the cable run, which is why we quote per job rather than publishing a number. The three things that move the price most are the distance from the board to the charger, whether the board has spare capacity, and whether the run is through an accessible roof space or has to be surface mounted. We check all three before giving you a fixed price.

What is home overload protection and do I need it?

Your home has a fixed supply capacity. Adding a 32-amp charger to a house already running an oven, air conditioning and hot water can push past it and trip the main breaker. Overload protection measures the whole-of-home draw and automatically reduces the charging current when the house is busy, then puts it back when things quieten down. It means most homes can add a charger without upgrading their supply.

How fast will an Evnex charger charge my car?

A 7.4kW model adds up to 50km of range per hour, so a typical battery fills overnight in around ten hours. The three-phase X22 adds up to 120km per hour where you have three-phase supply. For comparison, a standard three-pin wall plug adds roughly 10km an hour.

Can I add solar charging to the E2 Flex later?

Yes. The Flex ships as a grid charger and solar diversion is available as an upgrade afterwards, so you are not locked out of it by choosing the entry model. If you already have solar on the roof, the E2 Core includes it from the start and is usually the better buy.

Will an Evnex charger work with my EV?

Every model uses a Type 2 connector, which covers effectively every EV sold new in Australia. Some older imports use Type 1, and there is a Type 1 plug option for those. Tell us the make and model when you enquire and we will confirm before quoting.

What is the difference between the E2 Flex and the E2 Core?

The hardware is the same. The Core includes solar diversion out of the box; the Flex charges from the grid and can have solar diversion added later. If you have solar now, choose the Core. If you do not, the Flex costs less today and leaves the door open.

Do I have to buy the charger from you?

No. We are happy to supply and install as one job, or install a unit you have bought yourself. Either way the installation is certified and warranted the same.

Do you install outside Melbourne?

We cover Melbourne and the surrounding suburbs. Check our service areas, or just ask — if we do not cover you we will say so rather than waste your time.
