The scale of the shift: why industrial sites, depots and fleets are electrifying, and what “at scale” means for site load
How EV charging works electrically: AC versus DC, connectors and standards, and the vehicle-to-charger handshake
The core challenge: power on a constrained site, from load profiles and diversity to the incoming supply as the binding constraint
Smart, dynamic load management: deferring costly grid-connection upgrades through EVBox software and power-management hardware
Doing it safely and to standard: protection, earthing and power quality, with BS 7671 Section 722, IEC 61851 and OCPP
A real-world case study: a depot or fleet deployment, what was designed, what surprised the team, and what they would change
