    A brickie told me you should always drill into the brickwork as it will stay solid forever whereas drilling into the mortar bed they crumble over time. That’s why older houses often need repointing. Love the videos and your work ethic btw. 👍

    • @artisanelectrics
      @artisanelectrics  4 года назад +5

      Thanks for the tip! I think I’ve done too much work in old listed buildings where you’re not allowed to drill the bricks 😂

    • @stephenjones9153
      @stephenjones9153 3 года назад +1

      I'm 62 now and have always mounted to the bricks and never the Mortar, you can hang off the charging cable and it will never pull the charger off the wall even if you forget and drive away.
      A couple of good tugs on the charging lead and the charger will fall off Guaranteed.

    So I’m looking at getting an ev ,and home charger my question how do you go on when you don’t have an old style tap stopcock ? I have a Surestop switch stopcock under the sink in the cupboard with no visible bonding or no access behind the cupboard to check for bonding, I spoke to the council who believe the old tap stopcock would have been cut out when the surestop water switch was put in , thanks for any advice.

  • @StuMunro
    @StuMunro 10 месяцев назад

    I'm researching what work I might have to have done to fit an EV charger. I have a 100amp fuse/switch. Doing a load calc 40 + (0.4x(32+32+16+6+6+6)) + 30.49 for the charger = 109A which exceeds the 100A. It looks like you have a greater demand on your CU. Is this only ok as your zappi has load management?

  • @hottodropship9243
    @hottodropship9243 2 года назад

    HI, How did you connect the Zappi to your home network to make it a Smart EV Charger, or did you not want to do this?

  • @mark123655
    @mark123655 4 года назад +1

    Watching from Australia having just bought a 3 SR+.
    In Aus, all Tesla's come with the Gen 2 HPWC so will be installing that (only single phase like you so will be 32A).
    Interestingly in Aus we are required to have an isolater/switch near any EV charger.
    Surprised the UK doesn't have this requirement given you do have switches on far lower powered wall points

  • @eric4709
    @eric4709 4 года назад

    Nice to see how you connected to the existing DB and the use of those wall SWA clips ( really good) which is all common to general ccts , But ...
    ..... What would be good is : To see more about the EV testing itself which is more relevant ( in compliance with BS7671: 2018 section 722 Amd 1 ) and how the ZAPI EV charging unit complies with the requirements in BS761 2018 sect 722 regarding connecting to TN systems
    - you mentioned this right at the end .. but rather glossed over it.

  • @imranmajid1978
    @imranmajid1978 4 года назад +2

    Have you seen JW’s video on EV chargers? Also, could you give us a demo of the charger in use showing us what sort of current it pulls etc, perhaps even if you could turn the electric hob/oven on to demo how it ramps back to stay under the maximum demand. Excellent video otherwise, would it be possible to wire the charger into the outside box (main incomer) with just a small main? I would be more comfortable with that amount of load staying away from my house’s main CU.

  • @davidhongkong5657
    @davidhongkong5657 Год назад

    Very helpful video, but one thing I may have missed is a clear statement of voltage - is it 220 or 240 volts? And, what is the charging rate in Amps or Watts? I live in Hong Kong and our standard supply is 220 volts and a geat many vehicles plug into a domestic standard 13 amp socket for EV charging. A friend's car uses 12.3 Amps for charging. The unknown is the next higher rate of charging. One neighbour with a Tesla uses 25 Amps for charging. The company meter is rated for 10 to 100 Anps AC. Three phase charging for EV's in my estate is a non starter because the local company - China Light and Power - would have to rewire the whole estate and build between 6 and 10 new sub stations to handle the load IF all the houses (5,024) wanted to charge EV's and run a home at the same time. Your comments would be helpful for background knowledge.

  • @eric4709
    @eric4709 4 года назад

    if you moved all the RH rcd ccts by one position to make room for the EV MCB - that would have changed all the existing cct numbers by "+1" ? - and then - presumably you moved all the neutral and CPC connections on the relevant busbars by +1 also to match the new cct numbering ?

I guess having a longer one could be handy, but I am not a professional electrician :)

    What’s to stop someone from having a bog standard 32amp socket installed, and use the cable that comes with the car or buy another charging cable (like the one from Ohme)... surely that wouldn’t need an Earth rod, and would be cheaper than buying a home charger unit. Maybe not a perfect solution...

    60cm deep is a recommendation if likely to be damaged. In that situation it would be fine 👍

      I was going to look that up as was sure it was to do with damage, thinking armoured which you are using anyway as a starter alternative?

      522.8.10 doesn't mention a depth. Just 'sufficient depth'. I love the book of grey areas 🤣

    The Zappi is a very nice bit of kit and if you have a Solar PV installation it can do some very clever things. It’s worth checking out the fully charged channel, Robert Llewellyn’s has a recent video of his home demonstrating the Tesla power wall and Zappi setup.

    Good sales pitch, sound electrics. Thanks. Very informative.
    Have you made one on the 'Harvi' device? Sounds useful.

    2:45 Funny that this house looks same as the last video where do you talk about the charger station and the video before where do you install cables. I know this washing machine some minutes later. Why YT talk me that this Video is 5 hours old?

    Hi Jordan love the videos and quality installations. Just have one comment. I am not a qualified electrician so shoot me down with the regs, but as Joe Bloggs is it wise to have a washing machine waste so close to a main consumer unit? Looking forward to seeing the model 3 . Great choice. Wish I had trained as an sparky I'm stuck with a 24Kw leaf. (Still a great car) Regards Keith.

      Thanks! I would never install a washing machine that close to the consumer unit but it’s not my own house! 👍 glad you like the videos!

    Excellent. My next car will be electric, nothing as expensive as a Tesla. My question is as I don't know what car I will go for ,which unit do I put in ( I am renovating my house top to bottom now seems a good time to put a unit in ) needs to be a unit to cover a broad range of cars. Thank you in advance.

    Hi Jordan
    I am looking to get a Model Y when it comes to UK built in Giga Berlin
    I shall be installing a V2 ZAPPI charger, outside mails box, Solar Panels eventually and Power Wall Eventually too.
    I shall be installing a HARVI with a CT clamp and a HUB in the Sitting room near the modem.
    I am planning for the future and so have worked out where to run the cable from the Consumer unit to the V2 ZAPPI charger on the wall outside. I also want a Mains Wall switch double weather proof box, so two Armoured cables with the Linian clips that you used very neat.
    I may need a separate Consumer unit for the extra future Power Wall and Solar panels ?
    I have watched your video on you installing the V2 ZAPPI charger on your own house and I was very impressed.
    Are you a recognised V2 ZAPPI charger installer for OLEV etc, and secondly I an in Lancing West Sussex. Do you cover this area?
    I am already with OCTOPUS and will change to AGILE when I get the car.
    I am in a semi detached and have seen on RUclips that there is sometimes a problem with properties having shared supply, what do you know of this
    Sorry if this is long. Hope to hear from you soon
    James

    With the 40A MCB what size cable did you use? I am looking at 25m max underground cable for mine.
