For Strata Managers
EV charging that doesn’t become an admin problem
ReadySteadyPlug is designed to make EV charging workable in strata-managed buildings, without creating ongoing administration, disputes, or technical risk.
The challenge for strata managers
Requests for EV charging are increasing, but most charging systems are not designed for strata environments.
Level 2 chargers often require expensive electrical upgrades, introduce complex billing arrangements, and rely on Wi-Fi or mobile connectivity in basements. Over time, this can lead to complaints, disputes, and extra work for strata managers.
A EV charging system built for strata operations
ReadySteadyPlug uses managed Level 1 (trickle) charging, delivered through standard 15A power outlets and controlled centrally via EV Charging Distribution Boards (EVDBs).
Charging is monitored and managed at a system level, ensuring the building’s electrical limits are respected at all times. No data connection is required at the charge point or in the garage, reducing complexity and failure points.
How ReadySteadyPlug works in practice
Each charging outlet operates as an individual, managed connection:
Individually protected with its own RCD
Individually metered with high accuracy
Individually billed to the resident using it
Electricity costs are charged directly to the resident’s nominated payment method.
The Owners Corporation is reimbursed automatically each month, with no shared billing, manual reconciliation, or ongoing administration required.
Why Strata managers choose ReadySteadyPlug
-
Individual metering and direct billing remove the need to allocate or explain electricity costs.
-
Billing, reimbursements, and monitoring are automated through the system.
-
Each outlet includes individual RCD protection, with building-wide load monitored continuously.
-
No reliance on Wi-Fi or mobile connectivity at car spaces reduces faults and support requests.
-
Modular EVDBs allow charging to expand gradually as demand for EV chargers in the building increases.
