Can You Take an EV Charger When You Move?


It's a common query we receive from our customers: Can you take your EV charger with you when you relocate? The answer is yes, you can indeed take your EV charger with you. However, there are important considerations to keep in mind to ensure a smooth and cost-effective transition.

Relocating Your EV Charger


Professional Reinstallation

Relocating and reinstalling your EV charger at your new property should always be carried out by a qualified electrician. This ensures that the installation is safe and compliant with all relevant electrical standards. While this may involve some expense, it guarantees that your charger functions correctly and safely in its new location.


Cost Assessment

Before deciding to move your existing charger, it’s wise to assess the costs involved. Compare the expenses of relocating the charger versus installing a new one at your new residence. Sometimes, installing a new charger may be more economical, especially if advancements in technology offer more efficient options.


Residual Cabling

When you move, there may be residual cabling left at your previous property. This existing infrastructure can be beneficial for the new occupants, as they can use it for their own charger installation. It's a good idea to discuss this with your electrician to ensure the cabling is safely terminated and ready for future use.
