Any necessary third-party permissions (such as from a freeholder or managing agent of a block of flats) must be obtained by the customer before an installation occurs. This will be needed for rented or leasehold properties where it’s the renter or the leaseholder applying.
Where an installation requires cabling or other parts of the installation to be placed in or on another person’s property, or public land, access rights and permissions must be agreed by all parties using legally binding arrangements, such as legal covenants, before an installation begins.
The customer’s property (meaning, the installation address) must have designated, private off-street parking. This may be co-located with the property or separate from it. Where the parking is separate the customer must be able to demonstrate that they have a legal entitlement to the parking space through the provision of land registry title deeds.
The parking must be suitable for a chargepoint installation (a survey before installation will be conducted by the installer). The parking must be able to permit an eligible vehicle to be charged safely. The customer must be able to access the parking space at all times.
