Electrician Plympton

Licensed electricians for Plympton, 5038 – house rewiring, switchboard upgrades and LED lighting. 24/7 emergency callouts.

Local Electricians for Plympton's Post-War Homes

Plympton straddles Anzac Highway, Marion Road and Cross Road, with the Glenelg tram line running along its edge. Much of the suburb was built in the post-war years, and those solid brick homes are now being renovated, extended or replaced with pairs of townhouses.

Post-war wiring was never designed for today's electrical load. When Plympton owners renovate a kitchen or add a large air conditioner, the original circuits and switchboard are often what hold the job up. We look at the whole house, not just the new room, so the renovation doesn't overload what's already there.

Switchboard Upgrades in Plympton

We replace old fuse boards and early circuit breaker boards across Plympton with modern switchboards with RCBO protection, and make sure there’s room to add solar, a battery or an EV charger later on.

LED Lighting in Plympton

Swapping old halogen downlights and fluorescent fittings for LEDs cuts running costs and heat. We supply and install quality LED fittings throughout Plympton homes and can add outdoor and security lighting at the same visit.

Renovating a Post-War Home? Check the Wiring Before the Kitchen

A new kitchen in a Plympton post-war home can add an induction cooktop, oven, dishwasher and several new power points, all on a switchboard that was installed decades ago. We check circuit capacity and the condition of the existing cabling before the cabinets go in, so the new kitchen doesn’t keep tripping power and nothing has to be pulled out later.

He spent time getting the 3 lights level and advising on the distance from the ceiling. I’m really pleased with the result. Kane cleared up any mess and was really helpful. Thanks

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  I was confused and amused when the Sharkey the Sparky van pulled up, because I was expecting a different contractor.  Mason and Ocean explained that they were there to instal the circuit for the next contractor and quickly got to work.  They were friendly and efficient and gave me a lot of trust in their work.  I'm happy to recommend them.
