Who it suits

Drivers who want Wi-Fi and Bluetooth controls with a choice of attached or removable cable.

What stands out

  • Wi-Fi supports remote app access; Bluetooth connects your phone locally.
  • Choose a 5 m attached cable or a Type 2 socket.
  • The installed power meter supports load management and commissioned Eco or Full Green solar modes.

Worth knowing

Check these practical differences before choosing your charger.

  • Socketed builds need a Type 2 cable — we supply one
  • Solar and home-battery operation depend on the vehicle, meter and commissioned settings
  • The manufacturer warranty depends on the original Wallbox purchase date; we check the supplied unit

Load balancing and solar

Two things people mix up, so worth separating. Load balancing stops the charger overloading your house. Solar diversion is about charging on electricity you have generated yourself. They use similar hardware, but they are not the same feature.

Dynamic load balancing — DLB included

Dynamic load balancing is fitted as standard with the Wallbox power meter, so the charger backs off when the house is drawing heavily.

It works using CT clamps — current sensors that clip around your incoming supply cable and measure what the whole house is drawing. If the shower and the oven come on mid-charge, the charger can reduce or pause charging within the commissioned installation limit, then resume as capacity becomes available. The contractor sets that limit using the agreed supply capacity, household demand, cables and protective devices. A fuse rating alone does not establish the limit.

On this unit that uses the Wallbox power meter, included in the installed price.

With home solarDiverts surplus

With a compatible meter and commissioning, Eco mode combines surplus solar and grid power; Full Green waits for sufficient surplus. Schedules or manual charging may draw grid power, and a home battery may discharge into the car.

The Wallbox power meter, which we fit as standard on every installation.

Either way, exporting surplus earns you the feed-in rate while using it yourself offsets the full unit rate — which is why diversion pays on a sunny afternoon. How solar and load balancing work.

What's included — end to end

Choose your charger. Your confirmed Standard Installation package price covers the charger, installation, SEAI grant paperwork, certification and aftercare. You deal with one team, and we guide you through the final SEAI declaration after installation.

SEAI grant — end to end

We submit your SEAI application, monitor the Letter of Offer, manage the 6-month deadline, and guide you through the final declaration after installation.

Safe Electric installation

A Safe Electric registered electrician installs your charger to current I.S. 10101 wiring rules, with appropriate protection, isolation, earthing, and bonding checks.

Up to code, every time

Photos help identify possible electrical upgrades. The installer checks earthing, required bonding, the fuseboard and supply on site. We explain and agree any additional work before it proceeds; defects affecting the charger must be resolved before connection.

Certification on completion

You receive Safe Electric completion certification after installation. SEAI needs it for the grant claim; keep it for your insurer and if you sell.

One price for your selected package

Your selected charger, Standard Installation, all materials, grant paperwork and certification — from €1,599 all-in (from €1,299 after the approved €300 SEAI grant). Each charger and configuration has its own fixed package price.

Aftercare + warranty cover

2-year workmanship warranty plus a 3- to 5-year manufacturer warranty, depending on the charger — and you only ever deal with one team.

What if my home needs more than Standard?

Some Irish homes need additional work before a charger can go in safely — an older fuseboard, unclear earthing or gas/water bonding, an indoor or prepay meter, or ESB Networks having to confirm capacity. In those cases:

  • A Safe Electric electrician inspects on a pre-approval visit and quotes the extras transparently — before you commit to anything.
  • Pricing for any extras follows the Safe Electric electrician's specification and is quoted before you book.
  • We still handle the SEAI grant end-to-end — eligibility check, application, declaration, refund.
  • The contractor checks the existing installation for the new circuit and provides the required Safe Electric certification on completion.

Additional work is agreed before it proceeds. Photos help us assess the scope and price before booking. The installer still checks and tests on site, where further issues can become apparent. The conditional €300 SEAI grant is separate from the cost of additional work.
