DEWA Green Charger Incentives
The DEWA Green Charger initiative was launched to support electric mobility across Dubai. Residential users registering their electric cars receive access to DEWA's public charging network and can apply for installer subsidies.
Registration Requirements
To register for a DEWA Green Charger card, you need:
- Emirates ID: Valid copy of your resident identity card.
- Vehicle Mulkiya: Dubai registration card for your electric vehicle.
- DEWA Account Number: Active residential account associated with your property.
Strata Sub-Meters and Strata Subsidies
Building managers can apply for sub-meter installation subsidies to track communal charging bay consumption. We install approved sub-meters and connect them to strata billing portals, helping building FMs distribute energy costs fairly.
DEWA Safety Regulations and Electrical Compliance
Any electrical installation drawing from Dubai's main power grid must comply with the Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) regulations and the BS 7671 wiring standards. High-power appliances like electric vehicle chargers draw continuous current for hours, which can cause significant thermal stress on terminal blocks, main breakers, and power cables. If wired incorrectly, it can lead to insulation degradation, short circuits, or grid phase imbalances.
At Fixer Guy, we ensure compliance by installing dedicated Type A or Type B Residual Current Devices (RCDs) and miniature circuit breakers (MCBs) directly on your main distribution board. A Type B RCD is required for three-phase chargers because standard household breakers cannot detect DC leakage currents, which can disable your RCD protection. We also install dedicated copper earthing rods to verify ground fault pathways, ensuring that any short circuit is immediately diverted to the ground.

Safety Compliance & DEWA Regulations
As a professional electrical services provider based in Al Quoz, Fixer Guy strictly adheres to the Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) regulations, BS 7671 wiring standards, and local municipality codes. Installing an electric vehicle charging station requires advanced load assessments to prevent main breaker trips, proper grounding/earthing systems, and matching RCD protection breakers (Type A or B depending on charger leakage). Our certified electricians wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and use calibrated testers to verify loop impedance, insulation integrity, and safety shut-off mechanisms. We only source charging equipment that matches local UAE standards (including Type 2 IEC sockets) and coordinate NOC approvals with developers (such as Emaar, Nakheel, and Dubai Properties) and building managements for hassle-free deployments.
