Strata EV Charger Installation, Documentation Prepared for You
Body corporate approval for an EV charger installation is a documentation process. Get the technical submission right and approval is straightforward. Get it wrong, and you are waiting for the next committee meeting to try again.
We handle the full process for Cairns apartment owners, including site assessment, body corporate documentation, installation, and compliance sign-off, at a single fixed price with no handoffs to separate documentation providers.
Every install is carried out by licensed, Clean Energy Council accredited electricians and comes with a compliance certificate and workmanship warranty.
We install EV chargers in apartment and strata buildings across Cairns and surrounding suburbs. See all the areas we cover.
Strata Installs Done Right
Strata installations that skip body corporate approval or get the metering wrong are costly to fix and sometimes impossible to keep in place. The process matters more here than on any other type of install.
Our process works through every strata requirement before any installation begins. Body corporate approval, individual metering, cabling path, and compliance sign-off are all confirmed and in place before a single cable is run.

We wanted to make sure the upgrade was done to code before we bought an expensive charger.
They installed everything to current standards, provided proper documentation and certification, and explained what they’d done.
Peace of mind knowing it’s certified properly, and the charging works great with no issues.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need body corporate approval to install an EV charger in my apartment?
In most cases, yes. Installing an EV charger in a strata car space involves work on shared electrical infrastructure, which typically requires body corporate approval. The process varies by building, but generally involves a technical submission to the body corporate committee for review. We prepare the documentation as part of the job, so you are not left to manage that separately. Get in touch to arrange the assessment.
What affects the cost of an EV charger installation in a strata building?
The main cost variables are the cable run from the nearest suitable power source to your car space, whether sub-metering is required, any shared switchboard work needed, and the charger model. Buildings with car spaces close to the main electrical room tend to cost less. The assessment is what gives us the information to price the job accurately. Tropical-rated materials and a smaller local installer pool push Cairns prices above southeast Queensland levels. Properties further from the CBD or in the tablelands face additional travel time that is generally included in the quote. Call us for a quote.
My building says sub-metering is required. What does that involve?
Sub-metering means fitting an individual meter to your car space charger circuit so your usage is separately recorded and billed. It is a standard requirement in many strata buildings and is something we install routinely as part of the job. We will confirm the exact sub-metering specification required by your body corporate and include it in the fixed-price quote. Let us know if your building has specific requirements.
How long does the physical installation take once body corporate approval is in place?
The physical installation (once body corporate approval is in place) is typically completed in a single day. The site assessment is a separate visit beforehand. The part of the timeline outside our control is the body corporate approval process, which varies by building and committee meeting schedule. Contact us to discuss your timeline.
Will I get a compliance certificate for my apartment EV charger installation?
Yes. A compliance certificate is issued on completion, covering the charger installation and all associated electrical work in the building, including any sub-metering or load management fitted as part of the job. This is a legal requirement for electrical work in Australia and confirms the installation was completed correctly and to Australian wiring standards. You can provide this to your strata manager alongside the original approval documentation. Get in touch if you have questions.
