Install Oven

Professional oven installation

Installing a wall oven involves connecting it to your electrical supply safely, and because many ovens draw a lot of power, this is licensed electrical work that should be done by a licensed electrician, not a delivery driver or handyman. A proper installation ensures the oven is connected to a suitable circuit of the correct rating, wired safely, and tested, which keeps it working reliably and safely and protects your warranty. We install and connect built-in wall ovens, disconnect and remove old ones, and check your circuit and switchboard can supply the appliance. We install ovens across Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide, to the AS/NZS 3000 standard, with an upfront fixed price.

Hardwired vs plug-in ovens

Ovens connect to the power in one of two ways, depending on their power draw. Larger wall ovens, and most ovens combined with a cooktop on one circuit, are usually hardwired directly to a dedicated circuit, because they draw too much current for a standard plug. Smaller ovens may be plug-in, connecting to a dedicated outlet. Using the right connection for the appliance is important for safety, a high-draw oven on an inadequate circuit or a standard outlet is a fire risk. We determine the correct connection for your oven, check the circuit is suitable, and connect it properly, so it runs safely within the capacity of its supply.

Does my oven need its own circuit?

Many ovens, particularly larger wall ovens and oven-plus-cooktop combinations, require a dedicated circuit of the correct rating to run safely, because they draw a lot of current, more than a shared circuit or a standard power point can handle. Running a high-draw oven on an inadequate circuit causes nuisance tripping and overheating and is a fire risk. We check whether your oven needs a dedicated circuit and whether a suitable one already exists; if not, we install one of the correct rating from your switchboard. Getting the circuit right is essential for the oven to work reliably and safely, and it is a key part of a proper installation.

Replacing an old oven

Replacing an old oven with a new one is a common job, and usually straightforward because the circuit and connection are already there, though we always check they suit the new appliance. We disconnect and safely remove the old oven, connect the new one, and test it. If the new oven draws more power than the old one, or the existing circuit or connection is not up to standard, we will let you know and upgrade it as needed. We can also take away the old oven. Whether you are upgrading to a better model or replacing a failed oven, we handle the electrical connection so your new oven is ready to use safely.

Ovens, cooktops and range hoods

A kitchen often has an oven, a cooktop and a range hood that all need connecting, and we can install and connect all three. Electric cooktops, like ovens, often draw significant power and may need their own dedicated circuit, while range hoods are lighter loads. We ensure each appliance has the correct circuit and connection, and that the switchboard can handle the combined load. Installing them together as one job is efficient and ensures everything is correctly supplied. Note that gas cooktops and stoves require a licensed gas fitter for the gas connection, which we can also arrange. We make sure your whole kitchen cooking setup is connected safely and correctly.

Checking your circuit and switchboard

Before connecting a new oven, we check that your circuit and switchboard can safely supply it, which is an important step that a non-electrician would skip. A modern oven may draw more power than the one it replaces, and an older switchboard or an undersized circuit may not cope, leading to tripping or, worse, overheating. We verify the circuit rating and the switchboard capacity, and if an upgrade or a new dedicated circuit is needed, we will let you know and quote it. This ensures your new oven runs safely within its supply, rather than overloading a circuit that was never designed for it, which protects your home and the appliance.

Safe, compliant connection

Connecting an oven correctly is about more than making it work, it is about doing it safely and to the wiring standard. We ensure the oven is connected with the correct cable and connection method for its rating, that the circuit and protection are suitable, and that everything is secure and tested. An incorrectly connected oven, loose connections, an undersized cable, or the wrong circuit, is a fire and safety risk, which is exactly why this is licensed work. We complete every oven installation to the AS/NZS 3000 standard, so your appliance is connected safely and compliantly, and you can use it with confidence.

Oven not working? We can help

If your oven has stopped working, the cause may be electrical rather than the appliance itself, a tripped circuit, a failed connection, a faulty isolation switch, or a circuit fault. Before assuming the oven is dead, it is worth having the electrical supply and connection checked. We can diagnose whether the problem is in the wiring, the circuit or the connection, and repair it, restoring power to your oven. If the fault is within the appliance itself, we will let you know so you can arrange an appliance repair or replacement. Often an oven that seems broken simply has an electrical supply fault that we can fix.

Installing ovens in a renovation

A kitchen renovation or upgrade is a common time to install a new oven, and often the ideal moment to get the electrical side right, since the kitchen may be opened up and accessible. We can install the oven, cooktop and range hood, run any new dedicated circuits needed, and ensure the switchboard can handle the new kitchen loads, all coordinated with the renovation. Planning the electrical work at the right stage avoids rework and ensures your new appliances are properly supplied. If you are renovating your kitchen, talk to us about the oven and appliance connections early, so the circuits and connections are ready when the appliances go in.

Choosing where the oven goes

If you are installing an oven in a new position, rather than replacing one, the location needs a suitable electrical supply nearby, and the isolation switch must be accessible as required. We can advise on the electrical requirements for the oven’s position, run the circuit to it, and install the isolation switch correctly. Built-in wall ovens are typically installed in a cabinet at a convenient height, and the connection must be accessible for isolation. We make sure the electrical supply suits the chosen location and meets the requirements, so your oven is both well-placed for use and correctly and safely connected.

How much does oven installation cost?

The cost of installing an oven depends mainly on whether a suitable circuit already exists or a new dedicated circuit needs to be run, and the type of connection. A straightforward replacement using an existing suitable circuit is quicker and cheaper than installing a new circuit from the switchboard, which involves more work. Installing an oven, cooktop and range hood together is efficient when done in one visit. We assess your situation, including the circuit and switchboard, and give you an upfront fixed price before we start, so you know the cost, with no surprises if additional electrical work turns out to be needed.

Connor was very helpful, prompt & great advice.
Matt was very friendly & approachable & his workmanship is top shelf. I would recommend Matt to anyone needing any plumbing work done around their home or business. Yours sincerely, Philip Munro.
Yesterday we had a blow out on our electric meter box and we contacted Same Day Trades for assistance as we had lost all power to the house. They were on sites within 4 hours and Jess gave us the bad news. We would need a complete rebuild on the meter box. He gave us a quote that nearly blue us away, however when he explained that all components were top quality and as it was late in the afternoon he would get us temporarily back on line that evening and tomorrow the boys would install a brand new switch board. Cameron and Jordan were on the job at 7.30am and laboured most of the day with the installation. They overcame a few obstacles successfully and completed the job to our satisfaction. Overall a job well done.
Had Cameron here for a RCD issue. He was great, explained everuthing got the whole job done that day! Thanks Cam. Great job thank you.
Coda I can’t thank him enough for everything he did with my power today! Can’t rate him high enough. Changing a power board to new. Smart, reliable, caring
Jordan was quick, efficient and communicated really effectively about our plumbing issues today. Not only that, but he bonded with our elderly dog. 🥰 Unfortunately, we do have to have further work because of the age of the pipes, but the quotes were very reasonable. Same Day Trades did come out on the same day and Jordan did a great job.
