WHAT WE DO
Charge overnight at home. We install Tesla, Wallbox, Ocular, Zappi and every major AC wall charger - properly wired from the switchboard with the right protection and load management.
EV CHARGERS · ULTIMO
A home EV charger is the difference between plugging in at night and never thinking about range, versus queuing at a public DC fast charger every week. We install every major AC wall charger — Tesla Wall Connector, Wallbox Pulsar, Ocular, Zappi, Fronius Wattpilot — properly wired from the switchboard on a dedicated RCBO with the right protection, not piggybacked off a general power circuit.
For most Sydney homes a 7kW single-phase install is the sweet spot: it adds around 40km of range per hour, works on standard 240V, and doesn't need a three-phase upgrade. If you have three-phase already, or you drive high daily kilometres, 22kW three-phase gets you a full charge in 3-4 hours. Where a home has solar we can install a diverting charger (Zappi, Fronius Wattpilot) that charges the car only from excess solar — turning free daytime PV into free km.
Every install includes an on-site assessment of your switchboard, the cable run, mounting location and phase capacity. We handle any switchboard upgrade needed, Ausgrid notification for high-demand connections, and load balancing so the charger throttles down instead of tripping the main. Certificate of Compliance is issued on completion — a legal requirement in NSW that DIY installs cannot provide.
HOW THE JOB RUNS
We check your switchboard capacity, measure the cable run, confirm phase availability and pick the best mounting spot. Fixed quote on the spot.
We notify Ausgrid where required, upgrade the board if it's full or lacks a spare RCBO, and pull the dedicated cable to the charger.
Charger mounted, wired, load-limited to your supply, connected to Wi-Fi or app if applicable. Solar diversion configured if you have PV.
Full test to AS/NZS 3000, Certificate of Compliance issued, and we walk you through the app, scheduling and any alerts.

SYMPTOMS & CAUSES
OUR PROCESS
Same repeatable sequence on every job — no shortcuts, no surprises, no invoices you didn't agree to.
We measure the cable run, confirm phase availability and check the switchboard has room for a dedicated 32 A RCBO.
For high-demand connections we lodge the paperwork so your local network operator is on record.
If the board is full we upgrade it or install a sub-board so the EVSE gets its own protection.
We pull the dedicated cable, mount the charger, and seal all penetrations to weatherproof standard.
Charger paired to Wi-Fi or app, load balancing configured against your main supply so it throttles instead of tripping.
Full AS/NZS 3000 test, Certificate of Compliance issued, and we walk you through scheduling and solar-only modes.
Typical on-site duration: about 4 hours, depending on access and switchboard condition.
FIXED PRICING
Every job is fixed-priced on site before we touch anything. No hourly meter, no call-out surprise.

RECENT JOBS
New Tesla owner in Ultimo needed a home charger. We ran a dedicated 32 A RCBO circuit from the switchboard, mounted the Wall Connector in the garage and configured load balancing so the main never trips.
Homeowner in Ultimo with a 6.6 kW rooftop array wanted to charge only from excess solar. We wired a Zappi charger, added the CT clamp on the mains, and configured Eco+ mode so the car sips only spare PV.
Names and identifying details omitted. Every job includes an electrical Certificate of Compliance issued to the property owner.

Called at 11pm with a tripping switchboard. Electrician arrived within the hour, found the fault and had us back on safely. Honest and professional.
Burning smell from a powerpoint - they took it seriously, came straight out, replaced the circuit and explained everything. Fair fixed price, no upsell.
Lost half the house mid-storm. Empire were the only company that actually answered. Quoted upfront, fixed in one visit. Highly recommend.
Safety switch kept tripping for weeks. Other sparkies just reset it. Empire actually found the faulty appliance and the dodgy wiring behind it.
Burst pipe took out our power. Empire arrived super fast, made it safe and stayed until everything was running again. Lifesavers.
Old switchboard was sparking. They replaced it the same day, all licensed and certified. Cleanest install I've seen.
Power out the entire upstairs at 9pm with a newborn at home. Empire answered, dispatched and fixed it within two hours. So grateful.
Got three quotes for a switchboard upgrade. Empire weren't the cheapest but they were the clearest. Best decision - immaculate workmanship.
Storm tripped half the unit block. Empire turned up Sunday morning, no extra weekend gouge. Just sorted it. Strata are using them from now on.
Called five sparkies before Empire actually picked up. They explained the issue in plain English and gave a fixed price before touching anything.
Switchboard faults, urgent callouts, residential and commercial - handled by the same licensed team.
