Install an EV charger in your Kerala flat or villa. EV Shield handles KSEB meter separation, apartment NOCs, dedicated wiring & 7.4kW AC chargers.
As electric vehicles become a household standard across Kerala—from urban apartments in Kochi and Trivandrum to independent villas in Kozhikode and Thrissur—having a reliable, fast, and safe home charging setup is paramount. Charging overnight at home is not only the most convenient way to keep your EV powered, but it is also significantly cheaper than relying entirely on public fast-charging networks.
EV Shield provides end-to-end, KSEB-compliant home EV charger installation services across Kerala starting at just ₹15,000. Whether you live in an independent house, a luxury bungalow, or a multi-storey apartment, EV Shield handles everything from electrical load assessments to KSEB approvals and dedicated wiring.
Upfront and transparent pricing ensures there are zero hidden costs. All EV Shield home charging packages include KSEB-compliant wiring, dedicated earthing (under 5 ohms), 30mA RCD protection, surge protection devices (SPD), and IP54-rated weatherproof enclosures.
Power Rating | Charger Type | Charger Unit Cost | Installation Cost | Charge Time (0–100%) | Recommended Use Case |
3.3 kW | AC Slow Charger | ₹15,000 – ₹25,000 | ₹5,000 – ₹10,000 | 8–12 Hours | Overnight home charging for entry-level EVs / short daily commutes |
7.4 kW (Most Popular) | AC Fast Wallbox | ₹25,000 – ₹45,000 | ₹8,000 – ₹15,000 | 4–6 Hours | Daily charging for apartments, villas, and modern electric SUVs |
22 kW | AC 3-Phase | ₹60,000 – ₹1,20,000 | ₹15,000 – ₹25,000 | 1.5–2.5 Hours | High-capacity bungalows, premium EVs, and shared apartment parking |
Installing an EV charger in a flat or multi-storey apartment complex often comes with unique challenges, such as obtaining management approval and preventing disputes over shared common electricity. EV Shield provides a streamlined 4-step process to solve apartment charging:
1.Obtain Association NOC:We provide formal documentation support.
Draft a formal request to your flat/apartment association. EV Shield provides a template No Objection Certificate (NOC) letter and assists in presenting the technical safety case to the resident welfare association (RWA).
2.Separate Meter or Sub-Meter Application:KSEB compliance and individual billing.
KSEB allows individual EV charging meters. EV Shield handles the application and paperwork so your charging energy consumption is billed separately on your own meter rather than shared common area power.
3.Dedicated Parking Spot Wiring:Engineered for maximum safety.
Our certified electrical engineers run a dedicated armored cable directly from your assigned meter to your private parking bay, featuring proper earthing, MCB protection, and an IP54-rated enclosure.
4.Installation, Testing & Handover:Completed within 2–3 days.
The wallbox or pedestal-mounted charger is fixed, tested, certified, and handed over—typically within 2 to 3 days of electrical readiness.
EV Shield chargers utilize industry-standard CCS2 / AC Type 2 connectors, making them 100% compatible with every electric car sold in India.

Understanding KSEB (Kerala State Electricity Board) guidelines ensures your home installation is safe and legal:
KSEB Approvals: Single-phase home chargers up to 7.4 kW can usually be connected to your existing domestic load, provided your sanctioned contract demand is sufficient. For 22 kW 3-phase chargers, a load enhancement application to KSEB is required, which EV Shield manages end-to-end.
Domestic Tariff Slabs: Home charging utilizes standard domestic slabs (₹2.90 to ₹8.00 per kWh depending on consumption brackets for FY 2025–26). Getting a dedicated KSEB EV sub-meter prevents your general household consumption from jumping into higher price brackets.
Safety & BIS Compliance: Every EV Shield setup conforms strictly to Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS IS 17017) and local electrical inspectorate safety rules.
A 3.3 kW home charger costs ₹15,000–₹25,000 plus ₹5,000–₹10,000 for installation. A 7.4 kW charger (recommended for daily use) costs ₹25,000–₹45,000 plus ₹8,000–₹15,000 for installation. All prices include KSEB-compliant wiring, earthing, and protective safety gear.
Yes. You need a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from your apartment association and a separate KSEB meter or sub-meter. EV Shield provides a template NOC letter and manages the complete KSEB application and technical installation process.
The Tata Nexon EV supports up to 7.4 kW AC charging via a Type 2 connector. We recommend a 7.4 kW AC Fast Charger—it recharges a Nexon EV from 20% to 100% in roughly 4–5 hours overnight.
For chargers up to 7.4 kW, you can typically utilize your existing domestic connection if your sanctioned load allows. For 22 kW chargers, a 3-phase connection and a load enhancement approval from KSEB are required. EV Shield handles all filings.
Home EV charging uses your existing domestic tariff slab (ranging between ₹2.90–₹8.00/kWh based on total usage). Installing a separate meter ensures transparent tracking and prevents common-area electrical billing disputes in flats.
Yes. EV Shield installations feature certified earthing (resistance below 5 ohms), 30mA Residual Current Devices (RCD), surge protection, and IP54-rated weatherproof enclosures complying fully with KSEB and BIS regulations.
