What do sockets and switches installation services include?

Trained and certified electricians work on socket and light switch installation tasks so you won't have to compromise you and your home's overall safety. They can assemble wirings and cable, connect them to power sources, and inspect if the electricity is flowing adequately right after. Thinking of booking our switch installation service? Here's what you can expect:

Powerpoint installation

Before installing your appliances, it's crucial to secure enough power points to support the electricity flow. Electricians can help you plan, install, and replace or add powerpoints to maximise your area. They start by inspecting your place to identify specific spots where you'll likely need power sockets. The installation process typically involves:

  • unscrewing the cover plates
  • retesting the power source
  • connecting extra cables to existing electrical outlets and stretching them to different locations
  • rewiring cables to the new electrical socket or powerpoint
  • Light switch installation

Light switches are responsible for connecting your electrical lights to the power source. If you need to replace an existing light switch, your electrician can disconnect them for you. Keep in mind, however, that the replacement switch needs to have the same functionality as the old one.

We can help install new light switches if you're in the process of building a new home or renovating your bathroom or kitchen. The process mostly involves rewiring and connecting new cables to the power source and mounting new faceplates. In case you want multi-purpose electrical lights, you can also request for dimmer switch installation.

Outdoor electrical socket installation

Professional electricians can also install outdoor sockets on your balcony, patio, or turf. This way, it's easier and safer to connect your appliances, especially if you're planning to have an outdoor kitchen or barbeque area. 

It's also essential to consider the size of the landscape area, the structure conditions, and all the equipment you're planning to utilise. Electricians can handle the drill, connect cables from indoor to outdoor wall, and rewire your new outdoor electrical outlets accordingly.

Dandenong South VIC 3175, Australia

3rd Sep 2025

Looking for a licensed electrician to install 5 separate wall switches for our warehouse highbay lights in Dandenong South. Switches to be mounted right next to the switchboard. Each breaker needs its own dedicated switch (not a 5/6-gang), so we can swap to smart switches in the future. If you need to turn the whole board off, then it needs to be done after 4:30pm. Otherwise anytime if you don't. Ideally today (Thurs) if possible.

Please can you help?

Breaker trips when turned ON. central heating & switches not working.

$150

Cranbourne VIC, Australia

30th Jul 2025

One of the breakers is switched off. When I flip it back to the ON position, it immediately trips again. As a result, the central heating system and the plug switches for the rooms connected to that circuit are not working. I have tried removing all the devices connected to outlets in that area to rule out a faulty appliance, but the breaker still trips as soon as I turn it on. The only thing I haven’t been able to check or isolate is the central heating unit itself, as I’m unsure how it’s connected or whether it can be unplugged for testing. Can you please assist with diagnosing or inspecting the circuit? It may be a fault in the heating system or wiring that needs professional attention.

Reliable and efficient. got the job done quickly. Highly recommended for any electrical work.
