EV charging provision as part of new build planning permission?

As per subject, I was asked this morning about the practicalities for EV provision by an electrician. Apparently, it has been stipulated as a condition of granting planning permission for some new build dwellings, so I asked for sight of this.


Whilst it is usual for the planning to seek comments from the water authority for sewage disposal, I doubt if the DNO has been consulted.


Has anyone else come across this?

    Nobody is going to run a domestic installation fully loaded all day and night. So when it comes to the main fuse rating it’s not what you’ve got, it’s how you use it.


    Coming home at around six o’clock in the middle of the winter whilst electric heating is running full tilt and whacking a couple of cars onto charge will someone is using an electric shower, while a meal is cooking and both a washing machine and tumble dryer are in use is not going to happen.
