Schneider EVlink installation

Schneider Electric's EVlink chargers come from the same company behind Clipsal, a name most Australian electricians and homeowners already know from switches and switchboards. We install EVlink chargers in homes, apartment car parks and small workplaces across Sydney.

Schneider EVlink EV charger installation.

EVlink is Schneider Electric's family of AC chargers. The range covers simple home units through to commercial chargers built for shared car parks, with features like user authentication and network management so a building manager can control who charges and track usage.

Because Schneider is primarily an electrical equipment maker, EVlink chargers tend to appeal to people who want a conservative, well-supported product, and to commercial sites that already run Schneider or Clipsal gear. That said, any properly specified charger can be installed on any brand of switchboard; you don't need matching brands.

Blue Link Electrical is a licensed electrician based in Hurlstone Park (NSW Contractor Licence 332956C). We're not a Schneider partner; we install the charger you choose and handle the circuit, protection, testing and paperwork.

Know your model

Home and commercial EVlink ranges.

Schneider's lineup has changed over the years and differs between countries, so it's worth checking what's currently sold in Australia. Broadly there are residential models for a single household and professional models, such as the EVlink Pro AC, aimed at businesses and multi-user car parks. Professional models typically support access control and connection to a charging management platform, which matters if residents or staff need to be billed individually.

Single-phase and three-phase versions exist in the range. For a house, single-phase is usually the realistic option. For an apartment building or workplace, the bigger question is how many chargers the building's supply can support at once, and whether load management is needed to share capacity between them.

Before we install

What the installation needs.

!

A circuit per charger

Each charger gets its own circuit and protection, sized to the charger's current and the run length.

!

Building supply capacity

For strata and commercial sites, we assess the main supply before adding chargers so you don't overload it.

!

Correct RCD type

Protection selected to suit the charger's built-in fault detection, per Schneider's manual and AS/NZS 3000. Our RCD vs RCBO guide explains the basics.

!

Network for managed chargers

Commercial models that report to a management platform need reliable network access, by cable or wireless.

!

Approvals for strata

Owners corporation approval is usually needed before work starts in a shared car park.

!

Physical protection

In shared car parks, chargers and cables need protecting from vehicle impact.

How it works

How we install it.

For a house, the process is straightforward: we check the switchboard and supply, confirm the EVlink model, quote the cable route, then install the circuit and mount and wire the charger to Schneider's instructions.

For apartment buildings and workplaces we start further back. We look at the building's main switchboard, the available supply and the car park layout, and talk through how many chargers are planned now and later. Our guide to EV charging in NSW strata covers approvals.

Once installed, we set the charger's current limit, connect it to the network where the model requires it, and run a test charge.

Every circuit is tested to AS/NZS 3000 and certified with a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work.

Common problems

Common Schneider EVlink problems.

!

Users can't start charging

On managed chargers, this is often an access card or platform setting rather than an electrical fault.

!

Tripping at the board

Can be the wrong protective device, a damaged cable in a car park run, or a fault in the charger or car. See EV charger tripping the breaker.

!

Building supply stretched

Adding chargers one by one without a plan can overload a building. Load management or a supply review is the fix.

!

No power after an outage

Check the breakers and RCDs first. See EV charger not working after a power outage.

Questions

Schneider EVlink EV charger: common questions.

Do I need a Clipsal switchboard for an EVlink charger?

No. Schneider owns Clipsal, but EVlink chargers can be installed on any compliant switchboard with suitable protection.

Is EVlink a good choice for a strata building?

Its professional models are designed for multi-user sites with access control. The building's supply and approvals are the bigger factors.

Can you install multiple chargers in one car park?

Yes. We assess the supply first and plan circuits and load sharing so everyone can charge without overloading the building.

Do you supply the charger?

No, you buy the charger and we install it. Product warranty runs through Schneider or your supplier.

Are you licensed?

Yes. NSW Electrical Contractor Licence 332956C and fully insured. Every installation is certified.
