This guide provides general information. Confirm the exact vehicle, charger datasheet, site conditions and current local requirements before purchase or installation.
Collect vehicle and route data
Record fleet size, vehicle type, battery capacity, daily kilometres, energy consumption and route variability. This provides a first estimate of the energy the depot needs to supply each day.
Plan around return windows
Vehicles may return at different times and need different amounts of energy. Parking bays, departure deadlines, charging duration and operational buffers all affect the required charger mix.
Assess power before ordering chargers
A high total charger rating does not necessarily mean every charger will operate at full power simultaneously. A qualified engineer should assess available load, distribution, diversity, protection and any phased expansion requirement.
