Specialist EV charging solutions for apartment buildings, strata and owners corporations
From a single resident charger to a complete building-wide EV-ready system, our Master Electricians design and install scalable apartment charging with load management, individual user billing and room to grow as more residents switch to EVs.
Apartment EV charging needs more than a charger on the wall. The building needs a system that manages available electrical capacity, measures each resident’s usage and can expand as EV ownership grows.
We assess the building, design the shared charging infrastructure and provide a clear pathway for your owners corporation or committee.
Tell us about your building and what you are trying to achieve. We can assess the electrical infrastructure and recommend the right pathway — from one approved charger through to a complete EV-ready system.
Available power is shared intelligently across connected vehicles, helping avoid unnecessary building supply upgrades.
Charging sessions can be measured by user so residents pay for their own electricity rather than the owners corporation.
Install the shared infrastructure once, then add chargers to individual bays as residents need them.
Start with a few chargers and expand as EV ownership grows without redesigning the whole car park.
We use shared, load-balanced charging technology including Zaptec and Wieland systems designed for multi-residential buildings.

Shane and his team were engaged to install a 3 phase Smappee EV One charging unit. I appreciate the professionalism from him and his team. The installation of the charging unit is seamless, and the buried conduit and trench run are well hidden. Received the certificate of compliance upon completion of the work. Thank you again!
Smith & Winters upgraded our switchboard and hooked up our pool electrics. Shane was an absolute professional and a pleasure to deal with. He was conscious of how to save me money while taking the time to go through the pros and cons of various setups. He provided several suggestions I hadn’t considered, including installing a Wi-Fi output to provide coverage in the backyard and pool area, which has been a lifesaver.
Our office recently had an EV Charger installed by Shane at Proelecx Electrical. Absolutely professional and awesome service all round including working within a very old tricky building which has heritage listing restrictions. Always turned up on time with very minimal interference/noise to the office. After sales service was also very responsive and quickly sorted. Thank you for an excellent job well done.
Shane & Dylan make dealing with contractors easy! Attention to detail, prompt and reliable, the delivery if work is on time and budget. Any changes to scope of works are well communicated.
I got a Tesla Charger installed and I am really happy with the result. Shane was a true professional. Great communication prior to appointment. Great service on the job. Cleaned up afterwards and was available for a quick follow up call when I had a question. Highly recommend
Usually yes, but cabling and electrical infrastructure normally cross common property, so building approval is generally required. We can assess the site and provide the technical information your committee needs.
In most apartment buildings, yes. We can provide a clear scope, capacity assessment and proposed charging system so the owners corporation can make an informed decision.
Yes. Shared systems use dynamic load management to distribute available electrical capacity across connected vehicles instead of treating every charger as a separate full-load installation.
A properly configured system can measure charging by individual user or charger so residents pay for the electricity they use rather than passing the cost to all owners.
No. The building can install the shared backbone first and add chargers bay by bay as residents need them.
The backbone is the shared electrical infrastructure that makes the car park EV-ready — cabling, circuit protection, load management and connection points for future chargers.
Not necessarily. Load management is designed to use the building’s available electrical capacity efficiently. We assess the existing supply before recommending whether any upgrade is required.
Yes. The system can be planned for future demand so additional chargers can be added without redesigning the entire installation.
We use purpose-built shared charging technology including Zaptec and Wieland load-balanced systems, selected to suit the building, billing requirements and future expansion plans.
Start with a building assessment. We review the switchboard, available capacity, car-park layout and likely future demand, then recommend a staged solution for the committee to consider.
A properly designed shared system avoids one-off cabling, overloaded supplies and arguments over who pays for the electricity.
