The short answer
Airtasker's EV charger installer page shows $320 to $680, with a median of $500. Distance from the switchboard, whether you buy the charger yourself and the phase of your power all change the price.
The Airtasker page shows these as average prices for installers and was updated on 7 November 2026. It does not say how the average is worked out, so treat it as a rough guide.
Use a licensed electrician
Energy Safe Victoria says to always hire a licensed electrician and that unqualified electrical work is illegal and dangerous. Check your state register before you book.
Questions to ask
- Does the price include the charger, the isolator, the breaker and certification?
- How far is the charger from the switchboard?
- Does my switchboard need an upgrade?
- Is my supply single phase or three phase?
- What warranty do you give on the work?
