The relationship
An Established Electrical Relationship That Led to Workplace Charging
WB Electrical has supported Procladd at its Hamilton premises since 2018. The relationship began with practical electrical requirements such as lighting repairs, socket installations, additional spurs, fault finding, EICR inspections, PAT testing and reactive maintenance.
In 2025, that established relationship developed into a larger project: the installation of 10 black Easee commercial EV charger units for staff and business use at Bothwell Bridge Business Park. WB Electrical delivered the associated electrical installation, setup, testing and handover.
Project setting and requirements
- Existing commercial premises
- Staff and business vehicle use
- Multiple authorised users
- On-site parking and charger locations
- Ongoing electrical support requirements
The challenge
Adding Multiple Chargepoints to an Existing Workplace
Installing multiple workplace chargepoints is more involved than mounting equipment beside parking spaces. The electrical supply, distribution, protection, cable routes, charger locations, user access and commissioning requirements all need to work as one installation.
Working business premises
The installation had to be planned for an occupied business premises, with access and work areas coordinated around normal site activity.
Electrical capacity and distribution
Ten charger units create a different electrical design question from one isolated chargepoint. Available capacity, circuit arrangement and the intended pattern of use all matter.
Parking and cable routes
Charger positions and containment routes need to suit the parking layout, physical environment, electrical source and the way users approach the spaces.
User access and operation
Procladd needed a practical way to control who could use the chargers. Easee Keys were supplied for access by authorised users.
The charger is only one part of the project: a useful workplace system also depends on the electrical infrastructure, parking arrangement, user access, testing, certification and a clear handover.
The work delivered
From Site Review to Tested Workplace Charging
The recorded project combines the physical charger installation with the supporting electrical work, commissioning and access arrangements needed to bring 10 workplace charging points into use.
01
Site and Infrastructure Review
- Charging requirement and proposed parking arrangement
- Existing electrical supply and distribution context
- Proposed cable routes and charger locations
- Access and sequencing within a working premises
- Grant and evidence position at the time of the project
02
Electrical Installation
- 10 black Easee commercial EV charger units
- Associated circuits, protection and containment
- Suitable isolation, labelling and identification
- Installation coordinated around the premises and parking area
- Equipment setup ready for commissioning
03
Commissioning and User Setup
- Electrical inspection and testing
- Charger setup and functional checks
- Easee Keys for controlled user access
- Operational handover for the agreed users
- Certification and completion information
04
Wider Electrical Relationship
- Lighting repairs and replacements
- Socket installations and additional spurs
- EICR inspections and associated remedial works
- PAT testing and electrical records
- Fault finding, small works and reactive maintenance
Relationship evidence: The EV installation was not a one-off visit. It developed from a client relationship in place since 2018 and sits alongside continuing electrical maintenance, testing and small works.
Project evidence
Ten Chargepoints Installed at the Hamilton Premises
The project photographs show the installed bank of workplace chargers and the site work behind the finished system. Together they provide direct visual evidence of the 10-point installation described on this page.
The delivery approach
A Practical Sequence for an Existing Workplace
01
Define the Charging Requirement
Confirm the intended users, number of charging spaces, vehicle patterns, parking arrangement and the information already available for the site.
02
Review Supply and Routes
Review the electrical context, proposed charger positions, cable routes, access requirements and any isolation or sequencing needed for the premises.
03
Install and Commission
Install the agreed charger units and associated electrical infrastructure, then complete the inspection, testing and setup relevant to the installation.
04
Handover and Support
Provide the agreed access tools, certification and completion information, explain the system handover and identify any separate follow-on recommendation.
Grant and project context
The Grant Terms Were Specific to the 2025 Project
The Procladd installation was planned under the Workplace Charging Scheme terms available in 2025. At that time, eligible projects could receive support of up to 75% of costs, capped at £350 per socket.
That historical figure belongs to this project record. Grant values, eligibility rules, installer requirements and completion deadlines can change, so they should be checked afresh for every new enquiry.
Current details are published on the official Workplace Charging Scheme page. A grant should not be assumed until the applicant, site, equipment, installer and timing have been checked against the live rules.
Information that supports a better EV review
- Site address and parking layout
- Number and type of users or vehicles
- Typical dwell times and charging priorities
- Available supply and known electrical records
- Current and future number of chargepoints
Testing and handover
A Working System With a Defined Handover
The end of the installation should leave the client with a working system, defined user access and clear evidence of what was installed, tested and handed over.
- Electrical inspection and testing appropriate to the installation
- Charger setup, functional checks and commissioning
- Easee Keys and the agreed user access arrangement
- Certification and completion records relevant to the work
- Practical handover and any separate follow-on recommendation
Project evidence
What This Case Study Demonstrates
10-Point Installation
Ten commercial charger units installed at one workplace as a coordinated electrical project.
Existing Site Knowledge
A client relationship since 2018 gave the project a practical foundation in the existing premises and electrical requirements.
Controlled User Access
Easee Keys provided a defined access method for authorised workplace users.
Wider Electrical Support
The charger project sits alongside lighting, small power, testing and reactive maintenance support.

Project questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What did WB Electrical install for Procladd?
WB Electrical installed 10 black Easee commercial EV charger units at Procladd’s Hamilton premises. The recorded scope includes the associated electrical installation, setup, testing, certification, user access arrangements and handover.
Does a 22 kW charger always deliver 22 kW?
No. The figure describes the charger unit’s maximum rated capability under suitable conditions. Actual charging power depends on the vehicle, electrical connection, available site capacity, installation design and any load-management arrangement.
How was access to the workplace chargers managed?
Easee Keys were supplied to support controlled use by authorised users. The appropriate access and billing arrangement for another workplace would depend on its users, operating model and chosen charging platform.
Did grant support apply to the Procladd installation?
Yes. The 2025 installation used the Workplace Charging Scheme terms available at that time, when support was capped at £350 per socket. Current values, eligibility, equipment, installer and deadline requirements must be checked against the live official scheme before a new project is costed.
Can workplace EV charging sit alongside wider electrical support?
Yes. Procladd’s charger installation developed from an existing relationship covering lighting, sockets, EICR, PAT testing, fault finding and reactive maintenance. For another site, WB would first review the charging requirement, premises, electrical context, parking, users and programme.
