POD POINT EV CHARGER INSTALLATION FAQs

Considering a Pod Point charger for your electric vehicle? Here are answers to some common questions about the Solo 3S, charger options, vehicle compatibility and professional installation by SQ Electrical.

HOW FAST IS A POD POINT SOLO 3S?

The current Solo 3S provides approximately 7kW to 7.4kW charging on a suitable domestic supply. The actual charging speed can be limited by the maximum AC charging rate supported by your electric vehicle and local electrical supply conditions.

SHOULD I CHOOSE A TETHERED OR UNTETHERED POD POINT?

A tethered Solo 3S keeps the Type 2 charging cable attached to the unit, making it quick to plug your vehicle in when you arrive home. The untethered version uses a socket, allowing the cable to be removed when it is not required. The better choice depends on your vehicle, driveway and personal preference.

DOES POD POINT WORK WITH TESLA ELECTRIC CARS?

Compatible Tesla vehicles using the Type 2 AC charging standard can use an appropriate Pod Point home charger. The same applies to suitable electric vehicles from BMW, Volkswagen, Audi, Kia, BYD and many other manufacturers.

CAN POD POINT CHARGE BMW, VOLKSWAGEN AND AUDI EVS?

Yes, compatible Type 2 electric vehicles from BMW, Volkswagen and Audi can use the Solo 3S, alongside vehicles from numerous other manufacturers. SQ Electrical can confirm the appropriate setup for your particular car before installation.

DOES THE POD POINT SOLO 3S HAVE LOAD MANAGEMENT?

Yes. Pod Point specifies automatic power balancing across its current Solo 3S home charger models, helping the charger manage demand in relation to the property's available electrical supply.

DOES A POD POINT CHARGER NEED WI-FI?

The Solo 3S incorporates Wi-Fi connectivity for connected functionality, including software and feature updates. The available Wi-Fi signal at the proposed charger location should therefore be considered when planning the installation.

CAN YOU REPLACE AN EXISTING POD POINT CHARGER?

If you already have an older Pod Point or another EV charger and want to replace it with a current Solo 3S, SQ Electrical can assess the existing installation and determine what work is required for the new charging equipment.
