EV Installation and Signposting

At home and in business, everyone uses the knowledge and skills of experts. The challenge is always selecting the right partner. Our national expertise helps deliver the best EV solution for our clients, now and for the future.

OUTCO offers clients an end-to-end solution for EV charging systems, with experience in design, installation, signposting and maintenance, our team can assist every step of the way.

Once a site has been surveyed and a decision has been made on the choice of charge point units, OUTCO’s experienced team can assist with all elements of the installation.

The installation work requires a team effort, all of which will be managed by OUTCO.

The OUTCO team is experienced at all aspects of civil engineering with their renowned expertise in carpark surfacing, civils and line marking.

The work mainly consists of 6 elements:

Excavating a trench to run the ducting from the supply to the units
Running ducting which connects the electrical supply to the EV charging units
Excavating and forming a concrete base for the pedestal unit and kerbside
Connecting and commissioning the charge point, before refilling the trench line
Erecting a protective barrier / space around the unit
Marking and clear signage of the electric bays

(Some elements may not be necessary depending on location and supply)

OUTCO operate 24/7 to ensure that any works are completed outside of site operating hours or during the quieter periods of operation, such as through the night or weekends. Our aim is always minimising disruption during installation or site maintenance. We have the skills, knowledge and capability to deliver a completely scalable and flexible service for the most complex multi-site projects.

Our flexible operating model enables us to match resources to our clients’ requirements. Highly trained OUTCO operatives deliver a consistent approach and continuity of service for our clients across all of their outdoor estates, giving them the peace of mind that their assets are being taken care of to the highest professional standards.

Clearly signposted and line marked bays for efficiency

Once installed we want to ensure your electric vehicle charging points are clearly signposted and marked to ensure they are used only by electric vehicles. Signposts can guide drivers to the relevant bays and clearly marked bays ensure the right vehicles park in the correct place.

To avoid the charging bays being used by non EV drivers, we recommend they are not situated right next to the entrance. A clear signpost to an EV zone will enable your EV drivers to make use of them.

Sometimes, the charging bays require additional space, coloured markings or hashing can ensure sufficient space is left for vehicles maximising the practical use of the units.

Solutions for the future

OUTCO works with EV charging suppliers to deliver a future proof solution to our clients, works today will not necessarily be the solution for the future. We work with designers and engineers to give you aesthetically pleasing plans that can evolve over time.
