What is car park ev charging stations?
Public and shared car parks — shopping centres, councils, commercial buildings, public lots — increasingly need EV charging to serve drivers and meet expectations. EV Install delivers multi-bay car park charging built for public use: robust hardware that stands up to constant turnover, integrated payment so users are billed correctly, and the signage, line-marking and accessibility provisions that a public installation legally and practically requires.
Public access changes the requirements. Chargers need to accept payment from any driver — typically via app, RFID or contactless — with a back-office that handles tariffs, transactions and reconciliation. We specify networked, OCPP-capable units so the car park operator keeps control of pricing and reporting and isn't locked to one vendor. Reliability matters more here than anywhere: a dead public charger is a visible failure, so we install hardware suited to high-cycle public duty and set up monitoring so faults are seen and fixed quickly.
A compliant car park installation is about far more than the charger. Bays need clear signage and EV-specific line-marking so they're found and used correctly, protective bollards where vehicles could strike equipment, and accessible bays designed so drivers with disability can actually reach the charger and connector. We design the layout to meet AS/NZS 3000 for the electrical work and the relevant accessibility and car-park standards for the bays themselves, coordinating with the operator on placement, traffic flow and future expansion.
Capacity is the engineering core. A bank of public chargers represents a large simultaneous load, so dynamic load management shares the available supply across active bays and protects the site main, while letting the operator add bays over time. Where the site supply or switchboard isn't sufficient for the planned load, that is Level 2 ASP and often network/distributor territory — we don't hold a Level 2 ASP licence; we work with trusted Level 2 ASP electricians and manage that process for you, delivering one coordinated public-charging result.
Who it is for
If you run a workplace, manage a car park, operate a fleet or want to attract EV-driving customers, car park ev charging stations turns your site into a charging destination. We scope every project to the number of vehicles, the available electrical supply and how the bays will be used.
Every install is carried out by licensed electricians and completed to AS/NZS 3000 wiring standards. You can read more about electrical licensing in NSW via NSW Fair Trading.

The installation process
- Site survey. We survey the car park layout, supply, traffic flow and proposed bay locations, and confirm accessibility requirements.
- Design & compliance. We design the bay layout, signage, line-marking and electrical scheme to AS/NZS 3000 and the relevant car-park and accessibility standards.
- Install & infrastructure. We trench and run cabling, install chargers, bollards, signage and line-marking, coordinating any supply upgrade via our Level 2 ASP partner.
- Payment & networking. We set up the payment back-office, tariffs, OCPP networking and fault monitoring for the operator.
- Commission & handover. We test every bay under load management, verify payment and accessibility, and certify the installation to AS/NZS 3000.
Electrical requirements
Car park arrays draw from the site main supply, so each bay needs a dedicated RCBO-protected circuit, OCPP networking for payment and reporting, and dynamic load management to keep total demand within supply. We assess switchboard capacity and three-phase availability, plan cable routes and trenching, and design accessible, compliant bay layouts. Supply upgrades and distributor liaison are handled via our Level 2 ASP partner. All electrical work is tested and certified to AS/NZS 3000.
Switchboard upgrades. If your property needs a switchboard upgrade before installation, we work with trusted, fully licensed Level 2 ASP electricians to coordinate this seamlessly — we manage the process so you don’t have to deal with a separate trade.
Key benefits
- Multi-bay public charging with integrated app/RFID/contactless payment and reporting.
- OCPP-networked hardware so the operator controls pricing and avoids vendor lock-in.
- Robust units suited to high-cycle public duty, with fault monitoring built in.
- Compliant signage, EV line-marking, bollards and accessible bay design.
- Load-managed and expandable so capacity grows with demand.
What does it cost?
Indicative: fully project-scoped after a site survey. Public-access AC charging bays commonly run several thousand dollars per bay installed once payment networking, signage, line-marking, bollards and trenching are included, with per-bay cost falling at volume. Supply upgrades and distributor coordination are quoted separately via our Level 2 ASP partner.
