Power Point Installation Perth
Perth's Power Point Installation Experts
Running out of outlets is more than an annoyance. Overloaded double adapters and daisy-chained power boards are a real fire risk, and a scorched or warm outlet means something is wrong behind the wall. Our team fixes both, from adding a single point to wiring outlets through a full renovation.
Every job is done to Australian wiring standards by fully licensed and insured electricians. We turn up on time, quote before we start, and leave your walls tidy. Whether it is one extra point or a dozen, the work is safe, neat and tested.
Safe, Convenient Power Points
Most homes were wired for a fraction of the devices we plug in today. If you are stretching cords across the room, running double adapters off double adapters, or leaving power boards buried behind the lounge, you have outgrown your outlets. Worse, an outlet that feels warm to the touch, shows scorch marks or crackles when you plug something in is telling you it needs attention now.
Adding properly wired points removes the overload and the risk. We assess where you actually use power, then install outlets in the right spots so cords and adapters can go in the bin.
Our Power Point Services
We install, add and repair power points across Perth:
Installing New and Extra Power Points
Building, renovating or just tired of fighting for outlets, we install new and extra power points wherever the room needs them. We run the cabling, cut in the outlets and connect everything back to the switchboard. During renovations we move existing points, add banks of outlets for kitchens and living areas, and set them at bench height, floor level or wherever suits the layout.
Most rooms are short on outlets. We suggest at least two double points per bedroom, and more around kitchen benches, desks and entertainment units, so furniture sits flush and cords stay hidden. Every new outlet meets Australian wiring standards, gets tested on the spot, and is left with a tidy faceplate and clean walls.
USB and Smart Outlets
Phones, tablets, watches and headphones all need charging, and a standard outlet ties up sockets with bulky plug packs. We fit combination points with built in USB-A and USB-C ports so devices charge directly and both power sockets stay free. Bedsides, kitchen benches, home offices and studies are the usual spots, and we can upgrade an existing point to a USB model in the same position.
We also install smart outlets that switch from a phone or voice assistant, handy for lamps, heaters and appliances you want to schedule. All of it is hardwired by licensed Perth electricians rather than plugged into an adapter, so it charges fast and runs reliably.
Weatherproof Outdoor Power Points
Outdoor areas need outlets rated for the weather, not an indoor point behind a flimsy cover. We install weatherproof power points with sealed, IP-rated enclosures that keep out rain, dust and insects, so you can run the barbecue, spa pump, patio lights or power tools safely outside. Alfresco zones, sheds, garages, patios and spa areas are all common jobs.
We position each point out of direct spray where possible, weather-seal the cabling entry, and connect it to a protected circuit with a safety switch. That means no more running leads out through a window, and no unrated indoor outlet left exposed to the elements. Points near water follow the WA clearance rules exactly.
Repairing Faulty or Scorched Outlets
A power point that is warm, buzzing, blackened or dead is a warning sign, not something to ignore. Scorch marks and heat usually point to loose connections or arcing behind the faceplate, which can start a fire if left alone. We find the fault, replace damaged outlets and repair the wiring behind them so the point is safe again.
Cracked or discoloured faceplates, sockets that no longer grip a plug, and points that trip the safety switch all get sorted the same way. We test every repaired outlet under load before we leave, so you know it is holding power correctly and drawing safely.

Signs a Power Point Needs Attention
Power points give plenty of warning before they fail. Scorch marks or black staining around the socket, a faceplate that feels warm or hot, and a burning smell all point to loose or arcing connections that need looking at straight away. A buzzing or crackling sound when you plug something in is another red flag.
Other signs are easier to miss. Plugs that fall out or sit loosely, sockets that spark on connection, cracked or discoloured faceplates, and a point that suddenly has no power or keeps tripping the safety switch all mean the outlet or the wiring behind it needs a licensed electrician. Catching these early keeps a small repair from becoming a rewire.
Power Points in Perth's Double-Brick Homes
Most Perth homes built through to the mid-1980s are double-brick, with brick used for both the outer and inner walls. That leaves no timber cavity to drop a cable down, so adding a point takes more than cutting a hole and fishing a wire. It is the main reason a straightforward outlet takes longer here than in a timber-framed house interstate.
We pick the neatest route for each wall. Where there is an accessible roof space we run the cable down from above; otherwise we core-drill through the brick or run a slim surface conduit painted to match. We talk through the options before starting, so you know how the finish will look and where the point will sit.
Safety Switches and WA Compliance
Every new power point has to sit on a circuit protected by a safety switch, or RCD. If your switchboard is short on RCD protection, we add it as part of the job so the new outlet is compliant. WA law also requires rental homes to have safety switches covering all power and lighting circuits, which we can bring up to standard for landlords.
When the work is done, we test every outlet and hand you a certificate of electrical compliance for the installation. That paperwork confirms the job meets Australian wiring standards, and it matters at sale or lease time. Because power point work is prescribed electrical work, it must be carried out by a licensed Perth electrician, not a handyman.
Dedicated Circuits for Air Conditioning, Appliances and Home Offices
Big appliances draw serious current, and sharing an undersized outlet is asking for trouble. Split system air conditioners, ovens, cooktops, dishwashers, dryers and hot water units often need their own dedicated point on a correctly rated circuit, so they run without tripping the switchboard or overheating an outlet. We check the load, run the right cabling and match the point to what the appliance actually pulls.
Home offices are the other big driver. A desk with a computer, monitors, printer, dock and chargers overwhelms a single outlet fast. We add banks of points and USB outlets at desk height so everything plugs in cleanly. Before adding any high-draw circuit we check the switchboard has spare capacity, and upgrade it first if it does not.
