EV chargers & electricians in Alnwick

Charging in Alnwick homes

Alnwick mixes stone-built houses and terraces around the historic town centre with newer estates on the edges of town, and there are plenty of farms and rural homes in the countryside around it. The right charger, and where it goes, depends on how you park.

• Driveway or garage: usually the simplest install, with a short cable run from the consumer unit.
• Parking away from the house: common on farms and rural properties. The cable has to be sized and protected for the distance.
• Flats and shared parking: you'll need permission from the freeholder or management company, and you may be eligible for a grant.
• On-street only: a standard wall charger usually isn't suitable. Ask us about the options.

Older properties and the town centre

Parts of Alnwick's centre are in a conservation area, and some buildings are listed. A charger on a street-facing wall, or work on a listed building, may need permission, so check with Northumberland County Council's planning team first. We can suggest less visible positions.

Is your consumer unit ready?

An older fuse board may not have the space or protection for a new EV circuit. We check this at the survey, and a consumer unit upgrade can be done as part of the same job.
