Commercial EV Chargers

Commercial EV Chargers for Workplaces, Fleets and Business Sites

Shop commercial EV chargers for workplace charging, fleet charging, customer parking, depots, apartment blocks, hotels, leisure sites and other business locations. LAMPS supplies a range of commercial EV charging products for electricians, installers, facilities teams and businesses that need reliable charging hardware for everyday use.

Whether you need a simple wall-mounted 7.4kW charger for staff parking, a 22kW three-phase EV charger for faster turnaround, pedestal-mounted units for car parks, or a more advanced charging setup with OCPP, RFID access control and payment support, this category brings together commercial EV charging options designed for different site requirements.

Choosing the Right Commercial EV Charger

The best commercial EV charger depends on how the site will be used. A small office may only need one or two 7.4kW chargers for staff vehicles, while a fleet depot, public car park or commercial landlord may need multiple 22kW charge points with load management, access control and back-office compatibility.

7.4kW Commercial EV Chargers

7.4kW commercial EV chargers are commonly used where vehicles are parked for several hours, such as offices, workshops, residential developments and small business sites. They usually run from a single-phase supply and are a practical option when charging speed is less critical than cost, simplicity and reliability.

22kW Commercial EV Chargers

22kW EV chargers are suited to three-phase sites where faster AC charging is required. They are often used for workplace charging, fleet parking, car parks, hotels, commercial units and locations where vehicles may need to recover more range during the working day.

DC Rapid Charger Projects

For higher-speed charging environments, such as forecourts, transport hubs, larger fleets or public charging sites, DC rapid chargers may be more suitable than standard AC units. These projects usually need more detailed planning around electrical capacity, groundworks, protection, payment systems and installation requirements, so speak to LAMPS if you need product support for a commercial rapid charging project.

Key Commercial EV Charger Features

Commercial EV chargers can vary significantly in the features they offer. Before choosing a unit, consider how users will access the charger, whether payment is required, how many vehicles may charge at once and whether the site needs future expansion.

• OCPP support: useful where chargers need to connect to a charge point management platform or back-office system.
• RFID access control: helps restrict charging to approved users, staff, tenants or fleet drivers.
• Payment support: important for public-facing, customer or paid charging environments.
• Load management: helps balance available electrical capacity across one or more chargers.
• Pedestal mounting: ideal for car parks, bays and open areas where wall mounting is not suitable.
• Socketed or tethered options: choose between flexible socketed charging or the convenience of an attached charging cable.
• Weather resistance: check the IP rating and installation location before selecting a charger.

Workplace and Fleet Charging

Workplace EV charging can help businesses support staff, visitors and company vehicles while preparing for a wider move towards electric transport. For fleet operators, charger choice is especially important because downtime, charging speed, cable management and access control can all affect daily operations.

For smaller fleets, a group of 7.4kW chargers may be enough if vehicles return to base overnight. For higher-use vehicles or sites with shorter dwell times, 22kW AC charging or DC rapid charging may be more appropriate. The right answer depends on the vehicles, site power, parking layout and how quickly each vehicle needs to be turned around.

Wall-Mounted and Pedestal EV Chargers

Commercial EV chargers can often be installed on a wall, post or pedestal depending on the layout of the site. Wall-mounted chargers are a good option for buildings, workshops and perimeter parking. Pedestal-mounted chargers are better suited to open car parks, central bays and locations where the charger needs to serve multiple parking spaces.

If you are planning a car park or multi-bay charging setup, it is worth considering cable routes, bay layout, future expansion, protection, signage and whether users will need RFID cards, app access or payment functionality.

Commercial EV Charger FAQs

What is the difference between a 7.4kW and 22kW commercial EV charger?

A 7.4kW charger is usually single-phase and suited to longer parking periods, while a 22kW charger usually requires a three-phase supply and can charge compatible vehicles faster. The right choice depends on the site supply, vehicle compatibility and how long vehicles are parked.

Do commercial EV chargers need OCPP?

OCPP is useful when chargers need to connect to a back-office platform for monitoring, billing, access control or network management. Not every site needs OCPP, but it is often important for workplaces, fleets, landlords and public-facing charging.

What does RFID do on a commercial EV charger?

RFID allows approved users to start a charging session using a card or fob. This is useful where charging needs to be limited to staff, tenants, fleet drivers or authorised visitors.

Can commercial EV chargers take payment?

Some commercial EV chargers can support payment systems, usually through a compatible platform or charging network. If payment support is required, check charger compatibility before ordering.

Can EV chargers be installed on pedestals?

Yes, many commercial EV chargers can be pedestal-mounted when wall mounting is not suitable. Pedestals are commonly used in car parks, depots and open parking areas.

Can LAMPS help with a commercial EV charging project?

Yes. LAMPS can help with product selection, availability and supporting electrical components for commercial EV charging projects. For site-specific design or installation, always use a suitably qualified installer.
