Farnsfield has grown from a traditional Nottinghamshire village into one of the area’s most desirable places to live. As a result, the housing across Farnsfield is incredibly varied, with properties of all ages. Around the village centre and main street, you’ll find pretty period cottages, Victorian terraces and homes built from traditional Nottinghamshire red brick, many of which have been carefully modernised while retaining their original features.
Moving towards roads such as Quaker Lane, Station Lane, Southwell Road and Tippings Lane, the style of housing begins to change. Here you’ll find larger detached family homes, executive properties on large plots, modern housing developments and bungalows that have become very popular with both growing families and retirees. Many of these properties benefit from private driveways, garages and off road parking, making them ideal homes for EV charger installations.
Because homes in Farnsfield have been built during very different periods, their electrical installations vary just as much. Some older properties have undergone several electrical upgrades over the years, while the newer homes have been designed with higher electrical demands in mind. We also regularly work in properties that have been extended with open plan kitchens, converted garages, home offices and garden rooms, all of which increase the demand on the electrical system. As a local electrician in Farnsfield, we understand every property requires a different approach, whether we’re installing additional circuits, upgrading consumer units or fitting a dedicated EV charger.
With excellent access to Newark, Mansfield and Southwell, Farnsfield is a popular choice for commuters and it's no surprise that more households are making the switch to electric vehicles. For many homeowners, installing a home EV charger is now one of the most practical improvements they can make, providing the convenience of charging at home while adding value to their property.
Back to topAs electric vehicles become more common, having a dedicated charging point at home offers both convenience and long-term savings. A professionally installed EV charger allows you to charge your vehicle safely and much faster than using a standard three-pin plug socket. Charging overnight also means your vehicle is ready to go every morning, while many smart chargers allow you to take advantage of cheaper off-peak electricity tariffs.
Every EV charger installation starts with a survey of your property. We inspect your existing electrical installation, assess your consumer unit and incoming electrical supply and recommend the most suitable charger for your home and vehicle. We also consider the best installation point, ensuring the charger is practical to use while keeping cable runs neat and unobtrusive. Once installed, we carry out full testing and certification to confirm everything complies with the latest UK Wiring Regulations.
We recently completed an EV charger installation for a family living on Station Lane in Farnsfield. They had recently upgraded to an electric car and wanted to avoid relying on public charging stations during the working week. Their detached property already had a driveway and integral garage, making it an ideal location for a home charger. After completing our initial survey, we recommended installing the charger beside the garage door to provide easy access from the driveway while keeping the installation as discreet as possible. Once fitted, we carried out all the necessary testing, demonstrated how to use the smart charging features and ensured the system was operating safely before leaving. The homeowners were delighted with the finished result and appreciated being able to charge their vehicle at home whenever it suited them.
A professionally installed EV charger is not only more convenient but also much safer than relying on a domestic plug socket for regular charging. Whether you've already purchased an electric vehicle or you're planning to make the switch in the near future, installing a dedicated charging point will help future-proof your home while making charging quicker, easier and more efficient.
