Oven and cooktop electrical installation in Canberra

Swapping an oven or moving to induction looks simple until the new appliance needs more current than the old circuit was built for. We check the circuit and switchboard, then connect the appliance properly.

Common reasons people call

  • Replacing a failed oven or cooktop
  • Changing from gas or ceramic to induction
  • New appliance with a higher rating than the old one
  • Separate oven and cooktop going in during a kitchen change

What the job covers

  • Checking circuit rating and cable size against the new appliance
  • Connecting ovens, cooktops and induction units
  • New dedicated circuits where required
  • Isolation switches where required

What affects the price

Every job is quoted on what's actually involved. The main things that change it:

  • Whether the existing circuit is suitable
  • Switchboard capacity for a new circuit
  • Distance from the switchboard to the kitchen

What to expect

  1. 1You call or send a quote request with a short description and, ideally, a photo.
  2. 2Mick tells you what's likely involved and whether it needs a look on site first.
  3. 3We book a time, the work is done and tested, and you're shown what was done.
