Case Study: Rural Home Installation — Hydra Cubus 7 kW Smart Charger
Client: Private Residential (Rural UK)
Partner: Steve, SC Electricals
Hardware: Hydra Cubus Smart Charger
Power: 7 kW AC
Scope: Design, installation, commissioning, and homeowner handover
Project Overview
Set in a scenic rural UK home, this installation features the Hydra Cubus 7 kW smart charger — blending reliable performance with a discreet, countryside-friendly finish.
Installed by Steve at SC Electricals, the unit was wall-mounted beside the driveway to minimise cable runs and visual impact, while ensuring easy daily access for the homeowner.
Our Approach
-
Installed a dedicated EV circuit with full RCD/RCBO protection to BS 7671 standards
-
Completed containment, wiring, and wall-mounting in a single visit
-
Carried out commissioning and app setup for remote scheduling, monitoring, and control
-
Performed testing and verification before final handover
Results
✅ Quiet, reliable overnight charging with ~30 miles of range added per hour (vehicle-dependent)
✅ Reduced running costs through off-peak scheduling
✅ Neat, low-impact aesthetic that complements the rural setting
✅ Fully compliant, safe, and homeowner-friendly installation
Outcome
This project showcases how Hydra EVC delivers smart, visually discreet, and efficient home charging solutions — combining technical precision with thoughtful design to suit every environment.
