A Zwartkop charger enquiry should identify the vehicle, charger and parking arrangement before assuming the existing supply can support it.
Collect the charging brief
Record vehicle model, proposed charger, desired charging pattern and parking position. Include cable-reach and access needs without selecting an unsafe temporary route.
- Vehicle, charger and charging pattern
- Parking position and cable route options
- Known large loads and board access
Map the existing supply
Identify the main board, meter and known large loads from safe accessible information. Do not infer capacity from breaker size or physical space alone.
Define the installation study
Ask the electrician to assess supply, circuit route, isolation, protection, earthing and metering considerations. Civil work, network approval or equipment commissioning should be named where applicable.
