The Challenge
As the Crowne Plaza East Midlands Airport prepared to upgrade its facilities, the EV charger installation required precise delivery and no room for delays. The goal was clear: install a fully compliant, future-proof EV charging solution to the highest standards.
Our Approach
USP delivered the full EV charger installation, fitting Autel Maxi Charger AC Ultra units capable of delivering up to 22kW AC power, complete with smart charging functionality and multiple payment options.
Site Preparation
Notifying the DNO of the new installation, and ensuring all health and safety requirements were met before any work commenced on site.
Civil Works
Excavating an 80m route for cable installation, laying 150mm and 63mm ducting, forming concrete pads for charger pedestals, and reinstating all excavations to their original condition.
Electrical Installation
Pulling 35mm 5-core SWA and CAT 5E cables from the mains room to the feeder pillar and chargers, and installing a 7-way 100A TPN Proteus panel with comms equipment.
Testing and Commissioning
Conducting full testing, labelling, and commissioning of chargers in compliance with BS7671:2019 standards.
The Results
The project was successfully completed in a single visit, achieving the installation of 10 active EV charging bays, all carried out efficiently and to a high standard.
Pre-construction planning coordinated access and traffic management, ensuring a smooth installation with minimal disruption to hotel operations. All units were tested, labelled, and handed over ready for use.
I couldn’t be more delighted with the delivery and installation of our five new 22kW Autel electric vehicle chargers at our Crowne Plaza East Midlands Airport Hotel. From the moment we engaged with Utility Solutions Provider Ltd, we experienced nothing short of an exceptional service.
