Product FAQs

Q1: What is the VCHRGD Seven Pro?

The VCHRGD Seven Pro is a 7.4 kW smart EV charger for home or workplace installation. It’s a “next-gen” model from VCHRGD: compact, smart, and designed to meet modern charging needs.

Q2: Does it work with all electric vehicles?

Yes — the Seven Pro uses a Type 2 socket or cable, so it’s compatible with essentially all EVs and plug-in hybrids sold in the UK/Europe that use Type 2 charging.

Q3: What’s the difference between tethered and untethered versions?

Tethered version: Comes with a permanently attached Type 2 cable (often ~7.5 m), ready to plug in — convenient if you use the same car regularly.
Untethered version: Provides a Type 2 socket — you use your own cable. This is useful if you have multiple EVs or want flexibility, and also makes cable storage easier.

Q4: Can I control charging remotely / on a schedule?

Yes. The Seven Pro supports app control via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, allowing you to schedule charging sessions, monitor energy usage, lock/unlock the charger, and receive firmware updates. It also supports dynamic load balancing and can integrate with solar panels — useful if you have home generation set-up.

Q5: Is the charger safe and suitable for outdoor installation?

Yes. The unit is built with several safety and durability features: PEN protection, RCD / DC-leakage detection, under- and over-voltage protection, and compliance with relevant safety standards. The casing is weather-resistant (IP54 or IP55 depending on version) and robust (impact-resistant casing), so it’s suitable for outdoor installation.

Q6: What installation and maintenance does the Seven Pro require?

Installation must be done by a qualified electrician. The Seven Pro has a modular “push-fit” design, which simplifies installation and makes future servicing easier — parts like the front panel can be swapped without dismantling the entire unit. Once installed, maintenance is minimal: regular checks and firmware/app-based updates are all that’s generally needed.

Installation FAQs

Q1: Do I need a survey before installation? Yes. Before we can book your EV charger installation, you must complete a home electrical survey. Q2: How long does the survey take? The online Jumptech survey usually takes 5 minutes to complete. Once submitted, our technical team will review your information and confirm whether your installation is standard or non-standard. Q3: What is a standard installation? A standard install typically includes:

Charger installed within ~15 metres of your consumer unit/electricity meter
No upgrades required to your existing electrical supply
Suitable WiFi or mobile signal for smart chargers
No groundworks or extended cable runs

If the survey identifies additional work, your installation may be classified as non-standard, and we’ll provide a tailored quote. Q4: Can I choose my installation date before completing the survey? No. The survey must be completed and approved first. This ensures we understand your setup, bring the correct materials, and send the right engineer for your installation. Q5: How long does installation take? A typical domestic installation takes around 2–4 hours. Non-standard installs may take longer depending on cable length, groundworks, or additional safety upgrades. Q6: Do I need to be at home during the installation? Yes, someone of 18 years or older must be present for:

Granting access
Agreeing the final charger position
Demonstration of the charger once installation is complete

Q7: Will you need to turn off my electricity? Yes. To work safely, the engineer will carry out an isolation at your main fuse, meaning the power wIll be off for a short period — usually 10–20 minutes. Q8: Will my home need any additional electrical work? It depends on the results of your survey. If required, we may need to:

Upgrade your consumer unit
Install new earthing or bonding

Q9: Do I need WiFi for the charger to work? Most smart chargers require either:

A reliable WiFi connection, or
A strong mobile data signal This allows features such as scheduling, load balancing, and usage monitoring to function properly.

Q10: What should I prepare before the installation?

Ensure the engineer has clear access to your consumer unit and intended charger location
Move any cars from the driveway
Make sure pets are kept safely away
Complete the Jumptech survey in advance
Have your charger (if supply-only) ready on site

Q11: Will you notify my DNO about the installation? Yes. We will handle any required notifications to the Distribution Network Operator (DNO) as part of the installation process. Q12: What happens after the installation is complete? Our engineer will:

Test the charger
Demonstrate how to use it
Provide guidance on the app setup
Complete certification and compliance documents These will be emailed to you shortly after the visit.
