As more businesses move towards electric vehicles, dependable charging infrastructure is becoming an important part of commercial electrical planning.
MidlandPlus Electrical installs commercial EV charge points and the electrical infrastructure needed to support them.
From a single workplace charger to multiple charging points across a car park or operational site, we focus on safe installation, sensible distribution and equipment that fits the way the site will actually be used.
Our commercial electrical experience means we can assess EV charging alongside the existing supply, distribution equipment, cable routes, solar PV, battery storage and future expansion plans.
Commercial charging requirements vary considerably. An office may need a small number of staff and visitor chargers, while a fleet operator may need multiple vehicles charging in a controlled sequence throughout the day or overnight.
The electrical arrangement should reflect that expected use. We can install charging infrastructure for a range of commercial environments and coordinate the work around operational requirements.
We are an NICEIC Approved Contractor with broad commercial electrical experience.
Our team delivers organised, tidy installations and can support associated distribution, containment and cabling works where the existing infrastructure needs to be adapted for EV charging.
One of the first considerations for commercial EV charging is whether the existing electrical infrastructure can support the proposed load. Installing several chargers without considering the site demand can create unnecessary upgrade costs or capacity problems.
Where suitable equipment is selected, load management can help control the combined demand from multiple chargers.
The site supply, distribution boards, protective devices and future charging requirements should all be considered before the final installation arrangement is agreed.
Businesses investing in solar PV or battery storage may be able to integrate EV charging into the wider energy strategy.
Charging vehicles during periods of strong solar generation can help make better use of electricity generated on site, while batteries and load controls can provide additional flexibility.
Because MidlandPlus works across commercial electrical, solar and EV infrastructure, we can consider these systems together rather than in isolation.
That depends on the site supply, existing electrical demand, charger rating and whether load management is used.
A site assessment is normally required before the number and type of chargers can be confirmed.
Not always. Some charge points operate from single-phase supplies and others use three-phase supplies.
The most appropriate arrangement depends on the required charging speed and the site infrastructure.
Yes. We can install charging points and associated cabling, containment and distribution for workplace and commercial car parks, subject to the site layout and electrical capacity.
