Chargers

Commercial EV chargers

Networked AC chargers for shared parking, built for many users, fair billing and a supply you don't want to overload.

7 to 22 kW per socket

Commercial EV chargers we supply and install

Single and dual-socket AC chargers with OCPP, user access control and load management for workplaces, complexes and destinations.

How to choose a commercial charger

Shared parking needs more than a wallbox. Think about who will use the chargers, how they will be identified and billed, and how much spare capacity the site really has. For most workplaces and complexes, 7 to 11 kW per bay is plenty because cars stay parked for hours; 22 kW suits visitor bays with shorter stays. Use the charger sizing tool to get a feel for the numbers, then let a site assessment confirm them.

Look for OCPP support, RFID or app authorisation, and dynamic load management. These are what keep a multi-user installation fair and safe.

What affects installation cost

Cost depends on the spare capacity at the main board, cable distances across a parkade, whether trenching or core drilling is needed, and how many bays you plan to electrify now versus later. For residential schemes, see EV charging for apartments and complexes; for offices, see workplace charging.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Still unsure? Speak with StrataCharge by phone, WhatsApp or email.

What is OCPP and why does it matter?

OCPP is an open protocol that lets a charger talk to a management platform. It means you are not locked into one software provider and can change platforms later without replacing hardware.

How do we stop the chargers tripping the building's main supply?

Dynamic load management shares the available capacity between chargers and backs them off when the building needs the power. We set the limits during commissioning based on the load assessment.

Can we bill users for the electricity they use?

Yes. With RFID cards or an app, each session is linked to a user, so the body corporate, landlord or employer can recover costs. Where billing-grade metering is required, we specify chargers or sub-meters that support it.

Should we choose single or dual-socket chargers?

Dual-socket units serve two bays from one mounting point, which usually lowers installation cost per bay. Single units suit spread-out bays or sites that are starting small.

Can we start with a few chargers and add more later?

Yes, and we recommend planning for it. We can size the main cable and distribution for future bays now, so adding chargers later is a smaller job.
