The solution to external EV charging installations

In this video I take a look at the new grey external BG/SYNC EV consumer unit, it has everything that you need, its well made and a stunning little box that looks far better than all the others on the market.

Quality job as always 👍 bg boards are a game changer….Never understood why the hypervolt cardboard mounting template comes in a bag and the cover is just loose in the box have dropped one myself it goes straight in the front of the van now out of the danger zone until it’s fitted 😂

I wish you could do mine in Nottingham to this standard!!

Hi there, the Ohme manual states that type C should be used. I noticed that the EV consumer unit had type B. Can you clarify?

Top quality installation work. Thanks for sharing. What printer are you using for labels?

Hi, great looking job. Is using that box comparable in price to running back to the meter inside and using cable and trunking inside and 5 metres of external clipped cable?? I guess i am asking, was it a standard installation??

Hi SOTA, Great video as always I’m looking to plan my own install for my home charger.. Doncaster EV ultra 4mm is rated at 45A and 6mm at 59A. My question is your using 6mm is there any reason you are oversizing ? for this or it’s just what you have on the van.

I’m due to do my EV course next few weeks and doing some pre reading etc

After I complete my course wanted to install my own charger, was going to run 4mm Swa EV ULTRA as there a little bit of the run that I want hidden under ground.

Appreciate any response and look forward to all your other content

Thanks,

Great, I've just fitted one of these and struggled with 25mm tails, I found your video trying to find out if we could fit 16mm tails.
Do you think an niceic or napit etc inspector would pull it, with it having 100amp fuse?

Just as some constructive feedback to help aid you on your youtube journey.
The audio volume goes low and the high between you talking and you playing music. The mic audio is fine, but the music volume is higher. it means I have to turn the volume up just hear what you're saying and then turn it down so I don't wake the house up with the music audio... (2.12-2.15 is a perfect example of this.)

As i said, constructive feedback, I mean no offence!

Hi dose the ct clamp cable from meter cabinet go down the copex and join with the ev ultra cable inside c.u, is it just 2 cores and dose it matter what colour you use, I don't install ev charges just trying to get my head round it lol

I've seen 10 mm tails on some jobs for EV 😳
