Can I Set Up My Own Ev Charging Station?
The pandemic will end gradually and everyone will be able to get back on the road and the car and the bicycle will even be preferred after the end of the lockdown and restriction to respect social distancing. And since confinement has been beneficial for the planet, you might as well continue by investing in an electric car, right? And if it's the charging that slows you down, after reading this you will no longer be afraid of it and will even have a mad desire to invest in a zero-emission car.
How to set up your own charging station?
First of all, if you are a tenant, you are going to need the approval of your landlord and you need to explain your part to them in detail. If the owner does not see any interest (in particular financial) in the installation of an electric charging station at home, the installation will be at your expense with his agreement. If you own your home, know that installing a charging station can increase the price of your property if you wish to resell it.
Secondly, you will have to take into account the direction in which you park your car as well as the length of the cable (generally 5 meters) in order to determine the most strategic location for your charging station. In addition, you will also have to take into account that the installation, if it is outdoors, is resistant to all types of weather.
The connection to the electricity meter must also be made with all the safety devices necessary for the chosen means of recharging. If you have opted for a relatively powerful charging station, an increase in the power of your electrical installation may be considered. Discuss your needs with your electricity supplier.
Then you can proceed with the installation. To do this, you will first have to check that your electrical installation has an earth connection, otherwise, you will have to equip your electrical installation with it before the start of the work, because without this earth connection called earthing, the charging station cannot be installed. Contrary to what one might think, installing a charging station does not require major work or a major change in the layout of your home and your electrical installation. Nevertheless, you will have to call, whatever happens, a professional so that he establishes an electrical diagnosis before proceeding with the installation.
In terms of budget, you will need around Rs. 1 Lakh to Rs. 40 Lakhs for a well-equipped charging station in India. It depends on the type of chargers you want to install in your station. Note that you do not need any license for setting up any charging station and I think this is enough to motivate you to install an EV charging station. Many subsidies and policies are running by the Indian and State government to promote E-mobility in India. In addition, professionals such as Kazam for example accompany you throughout your project by providing you with a tailor-made quote and helping you with all the procedures. They provide India's best IOT based charging station.
