Electrical and EV charging, Melbourne

Commercial electrical and EV charging

Link 2 Solutions installs EV chargers for workplaces, fleet depots, car parks and commercial buildings across Melbourne and Victoria. Every job starts at the switchboard, so the chargers get the capacity they need, with load management where supply is tight. On the same sites we deliver the commercial electrical work around the chargers: fit-outs, lighting, data, security and AV, from the team that is already on site.

01Who it is for

Charging that the building can actually supply.

Business owners
Charging for staff, visitors or fleet vehicles, set up for the way the site is used.
Facility managers
Chargers in an existing car park without overloading the building's supply.
Developers
New buildings made charge-ready, with cable routes and board capacity for the chargers that come later.
Builders
EV infrastructure delivered inside the electrical package and documented for handover.
02What we deliver

Chargers, capacity and the wiring between them.

There is no one-size-fits-all, so we start with how the site will use its chargers. The charger on the wall is the smallest part of the job; supply, switchboard capacity and cable routes decide how many bays a site can run.

  • Site supply and switchboard capacity assessment
  • AC chargers for workplaces and car parks
  • DC fast chargers for fleets and high-turnover sites
  • Load management across multiple chargers
  • Switchboard and submain upgrades
  • Cable containment for future bays
  • Network connection for access and usage reporting
  • Pairing with solar and battery storage
03How a job runs

How an EV charging job runs.

  1. Check supply

    We measure what the site's supply and switchboard can spare before recommending a charger count.

  2. Plan the bays

    Charger types, positions, cable routes and future bays planned together, so expanding later does not mean digging up the car park again.

  3. Upgrade where needed

    Boards, submains or load management added where capacity is short.

  4. Install and connect

    Chargers mounted, wired, tested and connected to their network and management software.

  5. Hand over

    Your team shown how access and reporting work, with certificates and documentation for the building.

05Questions

Common questions about EV charging and electrical work.

How many EV chargers can our site support?

It depends on the site's supply and the spare capacity at the switchboard. Load management lets several chargers share the same capacity, so the number is often higher than a simple calculation suggests.

What is the difference between AC and DC charging?

AC chargers are slower and cost less, and suit cars parked for hours at a workplace or depot. DC fast chargers deliver much more power and suit fleets and sites where vehicles need a quick turnaround.

Do EV chargers need a switchboard upgrade?

Not always. If the board has spare capacity, chargers can connect directly; if not, load management or an upgrade is needed. The site assessment answers this before quoting.

Can a new building be made ready for EV charging later?

Yes. Allowing switchboard capacity and cable containment during construction costs far less than retrofitting a finished car park.

Can EV chargers run on solar?

Yes. Chargers can be set to favour solar during the day, and a battery can extend that into the evening. See commercial solar and storage.

What does a commercial electrical contractor do?

A commercial electrical contractor installs and maintains the power, lighting and data in workplaces, shops, venues and public buildings. The work is usually three-phase, runs to a builder's program alongside other trades, and finishes with test results and a compliance certificate.

Can you work in an occupied building?

Yes. Work in occupied buildings is planned around the tenants, with shutdowns scheduled out of hours when power has to go off.

Is Link 2 Solutions licensed?

Yes. Link 2 Solutions is a registered electrical contractor in Victoria, licence REC 27599.
