Single-phase installation (3.7 to 7.4 kW)
A single-phase system will recharge your vehicle in around 7 to 10 hours. However, the choice of charging power depends on your home's electrical system. In Belgium, a single-phase installation is common, with a voltage of 2 x 230V.
-
Three-phase system (11 to 22 kW)
Suitable for homes with a three-phase network (3 x 230V), this configuration enables faster recharging, in around 2 to 5 hours. If your home is equipped with a tetraphase network (3 x 400V + N), recharging will be even faster. Note that the charging station will automatically adapt to the available power of your installation, whether single-phase, three-phase or tetraphase.

How do I install a charging station at home?
Installing a home charging station is simple, but it must be carried out by a professional to ensure safety and compliance. Here are the main steps we follow at Vectura to ensure optimal installation:
Diagnosis of your electrical installation
Our experts carry out a diagnostic of your electrical panel to check its capacity to support a charging station. If necessary, we propose solutions to adapt your installation, such as adding a dedicated circuit breaker.
Choice of location
The ideal location for your bollard depends on accessibility and proximity to your car. We usually install bollards in the garage, along a driveway or close to an outside wall. Our bollards are weather-resistant, so outdoor installation is entirely possible.
Secure installation
Once the diagnosis has been carried out and the location validated, our technicians proceed with the installation, ensuring that everything complies with safety standards. Each installation is inspected by an approved independent body to guarantee risk-free recharging.
How much does it cost to install a home charging station?
The cost of installing a charging station depends on a number of factors, including the power of the station and the technical specifications of your home. At Vectura, we offer complete, tailor-made installations. Here’s a cost estimate:
Standard terminal (3.7 to 7.4 kW): between €900 and €1,500 (installation included, to be verified according to the complexity of your installation).
Three-phase terminal (11 to 22 kW): between €1,500 and €3,500, depending on the complexity of your installation.
