Frequently Asked Questionz

Are you allowed to install a charging point yourself?

Yes, you are allowed to install a charging station for an electric car yourself. All work at home behind your meter and main connection may be carried out by yourself. Please note: adjustments in the fuse box may only be done by a certified installer.

Is it safe to install a charging station yourself?

Yes, provided you work safely. If your fuse box is safe and you ensure the power is switched off during your installation work, and you carefully follow the steps in our installation manual and app, it is safe to install a charging station yourself.

Is it difficult to install a charging station yourself?

With some brands, self-installation is unnecessarily complicated. The Bluebird Power charging station is designed for simplicity. With clear instructions in our app and manual, self-installation is very doable, even without a technical background.

How long does it take to install a charging station yourself?

Pulling the power cable usually takes the most time and depends on your home and installation location. Mounting, connecting, and configuring the BlueBird charger itself takes our average user 12 minutes.

What tools do I need to install a charger myself?

To install the charger, you will need the following tools:
1. A drill to fix the mounting plate to the wall
2. A Phillips screwdriver
3. A cable stripper (optional, for shortening or stripping the power cable)
4. Four screws and plugs (depending on the mounting surface)
