Setting up EV charging involves a surprising number of moving parts: power supply, civil work, regulations, the chargers themselves and long-term upkeep. When each is handled by a different vendor, delays and finger-pointing follow. A turn-key project puts all of it under one accountable partner.
Step 1: Site evaluation and planning
Good projects start with a site visit, not a quotation. The team studies your location before any wire is laid so that the charging setup fits your site and your vehicles. This stage covers:
- Identifying the best locations for chargers, considering vehicle flow, visibility and cable distance from the panel.
- Assessing power availability: sanctioned load, transformer capacity and the cost of any upgrade.
- Regulatory compliance: understanding which approvals and standards apply to your site.
- Right-sizing the chargers: AC for long-parking sites, DC for quick turnaround.
Step 2: Installation and engineering
This is the physical build: mounting the chargers, laying cable, installing panels and protection, and building the foundations or pedestals. C1 installs AC and DC fast chargers for residential, workplace and public charging hubs, from a 3.3 kW home charger to ultra-fast DC chargers of up to 240 kW. Neat routing and clear labelling here make later maintenance faster.
Step 3: Grid integration and safety
Connecting to the grid is where safety is won or lost. It includes transformer setup, trenching and proper earthing, so that the installation stays safe for people, vehicles and property. You can read more in our article on why certified EVSE technicians matter.
Step 4: Commissioning and handover
Before handover, every charger goes through final testing: protection checks, a live charging session, and network setup. Chargers are made network-ready with OCPP 1.6, with RFID and mobile app access, so you can manage users and sessions from day one. The owner gets a clear handover on operation and support.
Step 5: Maintenance and 24/7 remote monitoring
A charger that is down earns nothing and frustrates drivers. That is why the work does not stop at handover. C1 provides:
- 24/7 remote monitoring that spots faults and offline chargers early.
- Proactive maintenance to fix small issues before they become failures.
- Focus on maximum uptime, so your chargers are available when drivers arrive.
Why one accountable partner saves time and cost
One point of contact
No chasing separate vendors for civil, electrical and charger issues.
Fewer delays
Survey, supply, installation and commissioning are planned together.
Clear responsibility
The same team that installed the charger supports it afterwards.
Who it is for
- Residential societies and homes: shared and individual charging from 3.3 kW up.
- Workplaces and commercial properties: charging as an amenity that raises property value and brand value.
- Fleet operators: customised charging for commercial fleets, e-rickshaws and scooters.
- Public and infrastructure projects: highway hubs and municipal projects with DC fast chargers.
