Professional, Certified & Fully Compliant Installations
Electric vehicles are no longer “the future”—they’re already here. But here’s the problem: too many installers are cutting corners, skipping key checks, and leaving homeowners with unsafe or non-compliant systems.
If you’re installing an EV charger at your home or business in Stirling or Clackmannanshire, it needs to be done properly—designed, installed, notified, tested, and certified.
Why You Need a Professional EV Charger Installation
An EV charger isn’t just another socket on the wall. It’s a high-load, safety-critical electrical installation that must comply with current UK wiring regulations (BS 7671).
A proper installation includes:
- Load calculations to ensure your supply can handle the charger
- Correct circuit design and protection (RCBOs, SPD where required)
- Safe cable routing and installation
- Earthing considerations
- Compliance with building regulations and DNO requirements
NICEIC Approved Contractor – Why It Matters
Choosing a NICEIC Approved Contractor isn’t just a badge—it’s protection.
With Gault Electrical Solutions Ltd, you get:
- Work carried out to the latest regulations
- Installations inspected and verified
- Certification you can trust
- Accountability and insurance backing
This is critical when it comes to EV chargers, as poor installs are becoming more common with unqualified installers jumping on the trend.
ENA / DNO Notification – The Bit Most People Miss
Here’s where most installs fall down.
Every EV charger installation must be assessed against the local network capacity. This involves notification to the Energy Networks Association (ENA) and your local Distribution Network Operator (DNO).
Two scenarios:
Pre-installation approval required
- If your supply is limited or borderline
- DNO must approve before installation
Post-installation notification
- If your system meets safe criteria
- Installer notifies after completion
We handle all of this for you—because if it’s not done, your installation isn’t compliant.
