BYD EV & PHEV

BYD EV charger installation in Mildura and the Sunraysia

BYD has gone from unknown to second-largest EV brand in Australia in three years. The Atto 3 is everywhere, the Seal is the sleeper hit, and the Shark 6 plug-in hybrid ute opens up a whole new buyer market. Each model has slightly different onboard charging specs and slightly different ideal chargers — we'll match the right unit to your vehicle.

Install notes for BYD owners

→BYD ships with a granny charger (10A wall outlet) — fine for trickle charging but slow. A dedicated 7kW wall unit charges the Atto 3 fully in around 7 hours, Seal in around 8 hours.
→BYD's BYD App pairs with the car only, not the charger — so universal chargers like Zappi (which has its own app for the charger side) work cleanly.
→Shark 6 PHEV charges to full overnight on 7kW — no benefit going to three phase or 22kW.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a home EV charger cost to install in Mildura?+

A standard 7kW single-phase home EV charger installed at a typical Mildura home runs from around $1,500 to $2,500 all-in (charger + install + certification), depending on the brand of charger you choose and the length of the cable run from your switchboard to the install point. Three-phase 22kW installs and jobs that need a switchboard upgrade cost more. We give you a fixed quote after a site visit so there are no surprises.

Do I need a single phase or three phase EV charger?+

About 90% of Australian homes are single phase, and most current EVs accept a maximum of 7-11kW onboard charging anyway, which a single phase 7kW charger handles fine. Three phase 22kW is worth it only if (a) your home is already on three phase and (b) your EV accepts 11kW or 22kW onboard. If you're not sure what your EV accepts, we'll check the spec for you before we quote — no point paying for capacity you can't use.

How long does it take to install an EV charger?+

Most home EV chargers we install in Mildura take 3-4 hours on site, from arrival to walk-through. If a switchboard upgrade is needed it adds another half day. From the time you call us to the day the charger's on the wall is usually 1-2 weeks.

Can I charge my EV from my solar panels?+

Yes — with a solar-aware EV charger like Zappi, Fronius Wattpilot or myenergi, the charger reads your solar export in real time and adjusts its draw to match. End result: most of your EV's charge can come from sun rather than grid. We install all the major solar-aware brands across the Sunraysia.
