1. Clarify parking rights and common property
Gather the condominium rules, parking-space rights and proposed cable route. Ask the property manager which approvals and decision process this project requires. Tenants should make a written request to the landlord; a policy proposal supporting EV charging does not replace the approval required for your building.
2. Assess electrical capacity
Ask an appropriately authorised electrical contractor to assess the connection, protective devices and simultaneous demand. Compare an individual charger with infrastructure that can serve additional parking spaces. Load control must respect available capacity; the wiring design depends on the building and has no single universal solution.
3. Check parking-garage safety
Have the cable routes, protective devices and applicable fire-safety requirements assessed for the garage. Confirm any additional requirements with the responsible specialists and authority. The charger’s stated power alone does not establish that every parking garage has the same requirements.
4. Allocate costs and plan expansion
Separate shared infrastructure, the private charger, electricity, metering, subscriptions and maintenance. State who pays each item and how another user joins the system. Check provider changes, charger replacement and occupant departure terms before accepting a price.
5. Document the decision and handover
Present the assembly with a plan, an itemised quotation, cost allocation and operating responsibilities. Keep the decision and agreed conditions. At handover, request test records, safety documentation, management access and the service contact; address disagreements through the specific issues in the proposal.
