EV Site Surveys & Capacity Reviews
Practical EV charging site surveys for businesses, landlords, fleets and organisations planning commercial chargepoints.
Electrical capacity checks
Review of existing supply, distribution boards, spare ways, maximum demand and practical capacity for EV charging.
Charger location planning
Assessment of parking bays, charger positions, cable routes, containment, access, visibility and future expansion options.
Load management advice
Guidance on whether smart charging or load management may be needed to control demand and protect the site supply.
Clear next-step report
Practical recommendations for installation, grant support, phased delivery, infrastructure upgrades or further design work.
WB Electrical carries out EV site surveys and capacity reviews
Find out what your site can support before installing EV chargers
Commercial EV charging should not start with choosing a charger. It should start with understanding the site.
A small workplace installation, fleet depot, visitor car park, shared residential development or public sector site will all place different demands on the electrical infrastructure. The number of chargers, vehicle dwell times, user access, charging windows, communications requirements and future expansion plans all affect the design.
An EV site survey helps identify what is practical before work begins.
WB Electrical reviews the key electrical and site conditions so you can understand the likely installation route, possible limitations and next steps. This may include whether the existing supply can support the planned chargers, whether load management is needed, where chargers should be located and what additional infrastructure may be required.

Where EV site surveys and capacity reviews make sense
An EV site survey is useful whenever you need to understand what is realistic before committing to installation.
Workplaces and staff car parks
Assess how many chargers can be installed for staff, visitors and company vehicles, while planning for future EV demand.
Fleet depots and logistics sites
Review capacity, charging windows, vehicle dwell times and future growth before installing fleet charging infrastructure.
Hotels, retail and leisure sites
Plan customer-facing chargepoints around parking layout, visibility, driver access, payment requirements and electrical capacity.
Landlords, factors and shared parking
Review communal car parks, apartment blocks and managed developments before installing shared EV charging infrastructure.
Public sector and education sites
Support early-stage planning for schools, colleges, council sites, healthcare buildings, community facilities and public estates.
Industrial and warehouse sites
Assess three-phase supplies, distribution boards, cable routes, yard layouts and charger positions across larger operational sites.
Existing EV installations
Review existing chargers where a site needs expansion, better load management, improved access control, maintenance or replacement units.
New-build or refurbishment projects
Build EV charging into the wider electrical design early, including ducts, containment, supply capacity and future charger locations.

Understand your site before committing to EV charging
If you are planning workplace chargers, fleet charging, customer chargepoints, shared parking EV infrastructure or public sector charging, a site survey is a practical first step.
