DUKE EV is part of DUKE Electrical Group, a Melbourne electrical, automation and security business with premises in South Yarra, Brighton, Beaumaris, Portsea and the CBD.
That depth matters with EV charging. Most of the work is not the charger itself but the switchboard, the cable route and the supply behind it, and that is everyday work for our team.
Victorian installs are carried out by our A-grade electricians under REC 35838 and certified on completion.
We look at your switchboard, supply and cable route before we quote, so install day goes to plan.

A straightforward single-phase install with a short cable run is usually a one-day job. Work that needs a switchboard upgrade, trenching or a supply upgrade through your electricity distributor takes longer, and we set out the timing in your quote.
Usually not. CitiPower and Powercor describe a single-phase 7 kW wall charger as adding roughly 30 to 40 km of range for every hour of charging, which covers a typical day of driving overnight. Three-phase only helps if your car can accept more AC power than single-phase delivers, or if you run two EVs or drive long distances every day. Our page on three-phase upgrades for EV charging goes through it.
Yes. We install chargers supplied by car dealers and retailers, as long as the unit is compliant for use in Australia and suits your supply. We check the model before we book the job.
Older boards with ceramic fuses, no space for another circuit or no RCD protection often need work before a charger can go in. We check yours when we quote and explain what is needed and why. See switchboard upgrades for EV chargers.
Yes. We work with owners corporations and individual residents on shared and private charging, including load management so the building supply is not overloaded. Start with our guide to apartment and strata EV charging.
