EV chargers advice

Tethered vs untethered EV chargers

Simple comparison of tethered and untethered EV charger choices.

This is general customer guidance only. Electrical work, testing, certification and pricing must be reviewed by VLV Electrical Ltd.

Tethered chargers

A tethered charger has a fixed charging lead, which can be convenient but leaves the cable visible.

Untethered chargers

An untethered charger uses a separate lead, which can look tidier but needs the lead to be handled and stored.
