Charging your electric car in Schaerbeek
From Josaphat to Helmet, from Plasky to Dailly and Meiser, Schaerbeek is rich in typical Brussels houses, some with a front-facing garage, and in apartment buildings.
In these houses, the fuse box is often in the cellar and the garage on the street side: the cable route is carefully planned for a neat, discreet installation. The 3 × 230 V network, common in Brussels, also comes up regularly here: it determines the choice of charger and its power.
Situations we come across in Schaerbeek

The electricity grid in Schaerbeek
As elsewhere in the Region, many homes in Schaerbeek 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.
