根据陆路运输管理局的规定, EVs accounted for 12% of total car sales in Singapore last year, 从2021年起增长4%. While transitioning to EVs seem straightforward, the charging infrastructure poses a challenge. 大约是3,到2023年,新加坡将有600个公共充电桩, 电动汽车充电器与电动汽车的比例为1:16.
鉴于此, installing your own EV charging system (EVCS) can offer convenience and cost savings. If you reside in a private landed propert or Management Corporation Strata Title (MCST) property, 在这里 are the essential steps to ensure safe installation of your EVCS.
Installing an EV charging point on home grounds can be complex, involving factors like engaging a Licensed Electrical Worker (LEW), 电缆的考虑, 符合技术参考标准. However, with the right knowledge and guidance, you can navigate through the process smoothly.
Electric Vehicle Charging Systems in Singapore must first and foremost comply with the nationwide EV charging standard, 技术参考资料25 (TR 25), which specifies mandatory safety technical requirements for the charging system. The latest version of the technical reference is TR 25:2022, which supersedes the TR 25: 2016.
Chargers that have received a Letter of No Objection (LNO) need not be re-certified to TR 25:2022 as the LTA EV Charging System Verification Panel (EVP) will continue to accept applications for LNOs based on TR 25: 2016 for a period of two years after the TR 25: 2022 is published. The exact cut-off date will be announced closer to 2024.

AC(交流电) 充电器是更具成本效益的选择, 尽管它们的收费速度较慢, requiring around eight hours for a full battery charge. 另一方面,商业 直流电) chargers can charge an empty battery up to 80% in under half an hour. 而交流充电器可能会更慢, they are well-suited for overnight charging when EV owners typically have more time. 另外, 一次充满电至少可以行驶300公里, which is four to six times the average distance Singaporeans typically drive. This makes AC chargers the most economical choice for many EV owners.
The charging speed of an EV charger is determined by its Kilowatt (kW) rating. Owners of full-electric vehicles should consider higher voltage chargers (11 to 22 kW and above) for faster charging, as opposed to lower voltage EV home chargers with a charging rate of 7.4kW及以下.
Most EV owners prefer wall-mounted charging stations in their car porches of garages to save floor space, 而不是独立的选择. It's recommended to consult with a licensed installer to determine the optimal solution based on the individual power supply and car positioning.
A LEW and equipment specialist play essential roles throughout the entire installation process of an Electric Vehicle Charging System (EVCS). 这些专家经过严格的训练, 获得认证, and possess comprehensive knowledge of applicable standards and requirements, 从而确保符合TR 25法规. The LEW is responsible for overseeing the safety and certification of crucial components such as the EV charging station, 配电板, 和连接. 此外, obtaining building NEW approval is necessary for MCST (Management Corporation Strata Title) homes.
All EVCs owners must remember to periodically engage a LEW and equipment specialist to maintain the charging system. The maintenance of the EVCS varies according to the manufacturer's recommendation, 检查和测试的频率也是如此.
