We Power Your Car has passed not one, not two, but three audits from the International Organization for Standardization and gained the ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001 accreditations.
Kai Arter, our Executive Chairman and Founder, said: “This demonstrates our commitment to quality, the environment and health and safety within our business, both on domestic and commercial installations, and whether working on our own jobs or projects for one of our partners.“
ISO 14001 is an internationally recognised standard that independently audits every part of a company’s environmental impact and makes sure an operation is fully compliant with best-practice environmental standards. It’s not easy or quick to get, and it takes commitment from the whole team.
Here are a few ways that adopting ISO14001 enhances a business’s environmental performance:
ISO 9001 is an internationally recognised standard for quality management. Implementing ISO 9001 demonstrates a company’s dedication to constantly improving performance and a commitment to quality.
ISO 45001 is an international standard for managing health and safety. It provides a framework for organisations to manage risks and improve their health and safety performance because we’re committed to worker health, safety and wellbeing.
One of the best things about ISO standards, which separates them from other national standards, is that constant improvement and training are built into them. To stay compliant, you can’t rest on your laurels. You have to work together to do better every day and be ready to be reassessed in the future.
That’s another reason we’re so pleased to have been awarded these three accreditations.
We want to thank the team from SQR Group, who supported us through the application process, and the We Power Your Car team for working so hard to show the auditors the pride we all take in our mission to be the most trusted and sustainable name in the UK EV charging market.

Standard Installation
Our instant price is fixed if it falls within our standard installation package plus any additions that you have selected (extra cabling for example). This package covers the majority of homes in the UK. Before we undertake your installation we will carry out a digital survey to check that nothing has been missed. After reviewing the survey results some additional work may be required in order to complete your installation safely and to the required standards. If this is the case, we will contact you well before the installation date and advise the cost of any required work. You can then continue with your installation, or alternatively we will refund you in full if you do not want to proceed.
Included in our standard installation is :
• Fitting of a single phase charge point to a brick or plaster wall or other suitable permanent structure
• Up to 10 metres of cable, run and neatly clipped to the wall between the electricity supply meter / distribution board and the charge point.
• Routing of the cable through a drilled hole in a wall up to 500mm (20 inches) thick if this is needed.
• The fitting and testing of electrical connections and protections required for the charge point.
• An additional three way consumer unit, if required
• Installation of a Type A RCBO in an RCBO enclosure
• Up to 3 metres of plastic trunking to conceal interior wiring.
• An O-pen earth protection device if the charge point requires it. (This is NOT an earth rod)
• Up to 4 hours of labour from your installer to complete the work.
• Electrical testing of the whole installation.
• Handover and setup of the charge point and any app that may be needed.
Not included in our standard installation (additional work) :
• Where the installation requires additional cabling over and above the amount you have told us about.
• Upgrade/replacement of the main incoming supply fuse where the local DNO (eg Northern Powergrid) would need to attend site.
• If the charge point is to be mounted on a post/pedestal rather than an existing wall and where you have not selected a post as an extra cost option in your order.
• Installation of a charge point to a three phase supply.
• Where gas and water mains bonding (earthing) is not in place at your property. If this is not in place, additional work would be required before installation of the charge point.
• Any groundwork that has not been selected during the order process.
A Surge Protection Device is not included in our standard installation.
What else you need to know :
• On the day of installation, please ensure that the area around your consumer unit (fuse box), incoming electricity supply meter and proposed charge point location (including where the cable is expected to be run) is clear and free of obstructions.
• We will need your WiFi password as part of the installation process in order to connect your charge point to the internet. Please have this available for the installer. Details will not be kept.
• The charge point must be on your own designated off road parking.
• The charger will be fixed in line with current guidelines at a height where it cannot be hit by a vehicle.
• Our installers are not able to enter loft spaces; lift floorboards or flooring; take apart any furniture of work above a height of 2m. If you anticipate that any of this may be required, then please contact us and we can discuss in more detail and provide you with a quotation.
• Should there be extreme weather conditions our installers may not be able to continue with you installation if it is not safe to do so (for example flooding). They will always do their best to complete the work where they can.
