How It Works

From your first click to your first charge, we've made home EV charging simple. Here's what to expect at every step.

110-15 minutes

Submit Your Details

Tell us about your property with a quick photo assessment. We'll need photos of your fuseboard, meter, electricity bill, and installation location.

  • Take photos of your fuseboard (consumer unit)
  • Photograph your ESB meter
  • Photograph your electricity bill
  • Show any visible earth rod/earthing details
  • Record a walkthrough showing your gas meter and main water shut-off if present

We Review Your Photos & Confirm Standard Installation

A Safe Electric registered installer reviews your photos within 24 hours and either declares your job a Standard Installation at our fixed price — or flags it for a quick electrician pre-approval visit if your setup needs a closer look.

  • Six checks: fuseboard, meter, earthing/bonding, parking, cable route, bill
  • If everything is clear from your photos, your job is declared Standard
  • If we can't confirm from photos, an electrician visits and quotes any extras transparently
  • Either way, you see the final price before you book
