Charging your electric car in Koekelberg
Koekelberg is one of the smallest municipalities in the Region and one of the most densely built. Around the Basilica, blocks of flats dominate and individual garages are few and far between.
For a co-owner with a parking space or lock-up garage, we look at the connection to the flat's meter and the cable route through the common areas. For the co-ownership as a whole, shared infrastructure with load management avoids repeating the works every time a new electric car arrives.
Situations we come across in Koekelberg
- Space or lock-up garage in a co-owned building
- Scalable shared infrastructure
- Technical file for the property manager (syndic)
- House with a garage
The electricity grid in Koekelberg
As elsewhere in the Region, many homes in Koekelberg are connected to a 3 × 230 V grid rather than 3 × 400 V. On this grid, charging is usually single-phase, up to 7.4 kW, which is enough to charge most cars overnight. Not every charger is compatible: we check your grid connection before advising you. For any change to the connection, your contact is Sibelga, the Brussels distribution system operator.
