Powerpoints and circuits
Not enough powerpoints is one of the most common jobs we do. We also run dedicated circuits for ovens, induction cooktops, air conditioners and workshops.

Signs it's time.
Any one of these is a good reason to have an electrician take a look.
- Power boards plugged into power boards
- Powerpoints in the wrong place after a renovation
- A new oven, induction cooktop or air conditioner that needs its own circuit
- No powerpoint where the TV or desk needs to go
- Outdoor power wanted for a deck, pond or shed
- Loose, cracked or scorched powerpoints
Always included.
Whatever the size of the job.
- Double powerpoints as standard, USB-C if you like
- Points set at the height you want
- Dedicated circuits sized to the appliance
- Weatherproof outlets outside
- Every new circuit on a safety switch
- Testing, and a certificate where the work needs one

Tested
Every point and circuit tested, and the switchboard labels updated.
A fixed price. Here's what sets it.
Every house is different, so we price the job in front of us. These are the things that move it.
- How far the new point is from existing wiring
- Wall type: plaster, brick or tiles
- Whether a new circuit is needed
- Room left in your switchboard
- Access under the floor or in the roof
You get a fixed, written price before any work starts, with anything optional listed separately. If we find something unexpected once we start, we stop and talk to you before doing anything extra.
All work is done to AS/NZS 3000, the Australian wiring rules.

Questions about powerpoints and circuits. Answered.
Can't see yours? Call 0491 570 157, or ask when you book.
Can you add powerpoints without cutting into walls?
Often, yes. In plaster walls we can usually feed cables from the roof or under the floor. Brick takes more work, and we'll explain the options.
Does an induction cooktop need a new circuit?
Most do, and some need switchboard work too. We can check your setup before you buy one.
Can I have USB powerpoints?
Yes, including USB-C. They are a popular swap in kitchens, bedrooms and studies.
Often booked together.
We do powerpoints and circuits in Preston and Reservoir and Northcote and Thornbury, and across the rest of Melbourne's north.
