Before you book an installer in Peterborough

How the job runs, who your network operator is, and the four checks to make on any installer.

  1. Choose your charger

    Pick the charger before you ask for quotes, so every installer prices the same job. We compare 26 home chargers A to Z; 25 of them have PEN fault protection built in, which usually means no earth rod.

  2. Survey and a written quote

    Most installers start with photos or a visit: where your consumer unit is, the cable route to the parking space, your main fuse and your earthing. Ask for a fixed price in writing that includes VAT and any extra work.

  3. Your network operator: UK Power Networks

    Your installer tells UK Power Networks about a new charger. Most single-phase home chargers can be fitted first and notified afterwards; if your supply needs work, such as a bigger main fuse or splitting a shared (looped) supply, the operator has to approve it first.

  4. Installation day

    A standard installation usually takes two to four hours: a new circuit from your consumer unit, the charger on the wall, safety checks and testing. You should get an electrical installation certificate for the new circuit.

  5. Set it up and charge for less

    Connect the app, set a schedule and switch to an EV tariff. The cheapest overnight rate we compare is 6.5p/kWh, on Intelligent Octopus Go and E.ON Next Drive Smart (November 2026).

Pick the charger first, then the tariff

How we built these listings

  • Every listing fits EV chargers

    For 140 firms we found EV charger work on their own website; for 81, Google lists them as an EV charger installer or specialist. Each card says which.

  • Ratings are Google's

    Stars and review counts come from each firm's Google listing, checked June to July 2026. We never rate installers ourselves.

  • Nobody pays for their place

    Each city lists its local firms first, then the national networks, and each group runs by number of Google reviews. If a firm ever pays to be featured, it sits in its own labelled frame and never changes the list. How we make money
