The ReadySteadyPlug Solution

A reliable EV charging system for strata that fits your building today and scales for tomorrow.

ReadySteadyPlug is a managed EV charging network designed specifically for apartment and strata buildings. It uses standard 10A or 15A outlets, centralised electrical distribution, dynamic load management and automated billing.

How it works

Centralised Design

The ReadySteadyPlug EV Charging Distribution Board (EVDB) can be installed in the main switchboard and can also be distributed throughout the building’s parking areas.

From there, multiple 10A or 15A outlets are supplied to parking bays.

Each outlet is:

  • Individually metered

  • Individually RCD protected

  • Centrally managed

The EVDB is connected to the internet via a central data connection. No Wi-Fi or internet connection is required at individual parking bays or charge points.

Dynamic Load Management

The system continuously monitors:

  • Building supply limits

  • Common property load

  • EV charging load

Charging output adjusts automatically based on available capacity.

If building demand increases, EV charging reduces. When capacity returns, charging resumes.

This protects:

  • Electrical infrastructure

  • Safety margins

  • Maximum demand exposure

Fair Resident Billing

All residents in the building benefit from:

  • Individually metered outlets

  • EV-drivers pay only for the electricity they use

  • Automatic billing to their card, with strata reimbursed monthly

  • Scheduled charging and support for multi-tariffs

  • No manual administration for strata or building managers

  • Non-EV residents are not subsidising EV charging

Scales with demand

EV adoption in strata buildings increases gradually.

ReadySteadyPlug allows staged deployment:

  • Start with limited installation

  • Expand as demand grows

  • Avoid overbuilding early

Infrastructure investment aligns with real uptake.
