Modernise TV/Power Outlet & Consolidate Light Switches (Licensed Elec)

$250

Potts Point NSW 2011, Australia

20th Jul 2026

Title: Modernise TV/Power Outlet & Consolidate Light Switches (Licensed Electrician) Description: I’m renovating my living room and preparing for the installation of a walnut timber feature wall. I’m looking for a licensed electrician to complete the following work and provide a clean, contemporary finish. 1. Replace Existing TV/Power/Data Outlet I’d like the existing bulky combination wall plate replaced with a modern, slimline or recessed solution. The new installation should retain: * Power outlets (4 GPOs or as recommended) * NBN FTTB DSL (RJ11) outlet for my modem * One TV coaxial outlet (for future use) The second coaxial outlet is no longer used and can be removed if appropriate. I’m happy for you to recommend the best solution (e.g. Clipsal Iconic or similar). 2. Consolidate Light Switches There are two switch plates approximately 400 mm apart. I’d like all existing switches and dimmers relocated and consolidated into a single multi-gang switch plate in the location of the current single switch. Please: * Remove the existing larger switch plate. * Extend wiring as required. * Patch and make good the redundant wall opening so it is ready for timber panelling. * Reuse existing dimmers where practical or supply compatible replacements if required. The aim is to minimise the number of visible wall plates before the timber feature wall is installed. Please provide a quote including labour and materials. Photos are attached. Happy to discuss the best solution before work commences.

Electrician to fix protected power switch shorting after 4pm today

$200

Newtown NSW, Australia

26th May 2026

One of the protected power switches was triggered yesterday. I have unplugged all devices from the wall sockets and even switched each socket off manually in the affected rooms but I cannot switch the protected power switch back on. For context there may be a socket that has been affected in the wall by all the rain recently as this impacted a light switch in our wall about 2 years ago.. Need someone who can come out to Newtown to fix this afternoon. 4pm or later. Thanks.

Great guy, and he quickly figured out the issue and fixed it.
