Own a Tesla on the Gold Coast? Get your Tesla Wall Connector installed by licensed electricians who know the product inside out.
The Tesla Wall Connector is the gold standard in home EV charging for Tesla owners. Faster, smarter, and more integrated than a standard outlet — but it needs to be installed correctly to get the most out of it. South East Electrical installs Tesla Wall Connectors across the Gold Coast, ensuring your home charging setup is safe, compliant, and optimised for your vehicle.
The Tesla Wall Connector is Tesla’s recommended home charging solution, and for good reason:
While a standard outlet will charge your Tesla, the Wall Connector is in a different class for daily home use.
A South East Electrical Tesla Wall Connector installation includes:
We also assess whether your home’s single-phase or three-phase power supply is best utilised for your Tesla model — see below.
Most Gold Coast homes are connected to single-phase power, which limits the Tesla Wall Connector to a maximum of 7.4 kW (enough to add ~45 km of range per hour). This is perfectly adequate for overnight home charging for the vast majority of Tesla owners.
Homes with three-phase power can access up to 22 kW from the Wall Connector — useful for larger-battery models like the Model S or Model X, or for households with two Teslas sharing one charger. If you’re unsure which supply your home has, your electrician will confirm during the site assessment.
Tesla Wall Connector installation costs on the Gold Coast typically fall between $1,400 and $2,500 all up, including the Wall Connector unit, dedicated circuit installation, and labour.
If a switchboard upgrade is required, this adds $800–$2,500 to the total. For a full breakdown of all costs involved, see our EV charger installation cost guide.
Tesla also sells the Wall Connector directly — if you’ve already purchased yours, we can install a supplied unit at a reduced rate.
