Changover switch for hot water heater (electrical, not plumbing)

$260

Melbourne VIC 3004, Australia

25th Jun 2026

Current electrical hot water heater only heats at 11 pm and runs out of hot water by evening. Need to install a changeover switch to set the heating to day or night. May need to replace the existing circuit breaker to a RCBO. Hot water heater is in ceiling through crawl space. Apartment building also has mains panel in basement. From the building superintendent: "The 20amp switch is for your hot water. The 63amp switch is for everything else. The 20amp switch is programmed to only work between 11pm and 6am when the electricity is cheap. You need to bypass the 20amp switch so that it goes through the 63amp switch."

Electrician Required – Power Trip Issue

$50

Melbourne VIC 3000, Australia

20th Jun 2026

Issue Description: The circuit breaker keeps tripping in our commercial food court store. We have tested multiple appliances individually, and they appear to be working normally. Based on our testing: * Power trips immediately when equipment is plugged into the P12 wall outlets. * The issue affects multiple sockets in the P12 area. * A chiller/fridge also causes the breaker to trip when connected to P12, but works when plugged into a different power point (P11). * Other appliances, including microwaves and rice cookers, do not appear to be faulty. Suspected Cause: Possible fault with the P12 power circuit, wiring, or wall outlets rather than the appliances themselves.

Highly recommend this electrician. He is reliable, keeps his promises, pays great attention to detail, and communicates clearly throughout the job. Professional, honest, and easy to work with.

Licensed Electrician Needed

$500

Melbourne CBD VIC 3000, Australia

23rd Mar 2026

Need a licensed electrician to inspect my 2-bedroom apartment living area and confirm whether it is possible to create/provide an electrical point for installing a chandelier. If feasible, I would like: • 1 chandelier installed (see attached picture) • 4 wall lights replaced and installed and also install a Kitchen Chimney and remove old ones. Property is on the 24th floor, directly opposite Southern Cross Station. I would prefer an inspection first before proceeding with the full installation. Please quote separately for: • inspection/feasibility check (ideally NO CALL OUT FEE is desirable) • installation work if feasible

Couldn’t be happier with the job. He installed a chandelier, 4 lights, 2 panel heaters, and also changed a few globes and switches for me. The work was done professionally, efficiently, and to a very high standard. Everything was completed neatly and properly, and the overall experience was smooth and stress-free. I would happily give 5 stars and highly recommend him for any electrical work.
