Spotswood has a character of its own. Established residential streets sit alongside renovated homes, newer townhouses, apartments and a significant commercial and industrial precinct around Hudsons Road and Melbourne Road. That mix creates very different electrical requirements—from modernising an older home's switchboard to installing additional power points, lighting or an EV charger.

RS Electrical VIC provides practical electrical solutions tailored to the property rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach. Whether you need a single power point installed or are planning a larger electrical upgrade, you can expect clear communication, quality workmanship and compliant electrical work.

We provide a broad range of residential and commercial electrical services, including:

• EV Charger Installation
• Split System Air Conditioner Installation (ARCtick Accredited)
• Switchboard Upgrades
• Safety Switch (RCBO) Installation
• Consumer Mains Upgrades
• Power Point Installation & USB-C Power Points
• Lighting Installation & LED Upgrades
• Pendant & Feature Lighting
• Ceiling Fan Installation
• Smoke Alarm Installation & Compliance
• CCTV Installation
• Data Points & Network Cabling
• Appliance Installation
• Rental Property Electrical Maintenance
• Emergency Electrical Services

From established homes to busy commercial premises, we'll assess what's already installed and recommend an appropriate solution.

Many homes throughout Spotswood were built well before today's level of electricity consumption. An electrical system originally designed for basic lighting and a handful of appliances may now be supporting air conditioning, induction cooking, home offices, entertainment systems, electric vehicles and other high-demand equipment.

If you're renovating or have purchased an established property, it can be a good opportunity to assess the existing electrical installation.

We can assist with:

• replacing outdated switchboards 
• upgrading circuit protection 
• additional power circuits 
• rewiring where required 
• dedicated appliance circuits 
• new lighting layouts 
• additional power points 
• data cabling 
• smoke alarm upgrades 
• EV charging provisions 

Our aim is to modernise the electrical system while keeping visible cabling and equipment neat and sympathetic to the property.

An ageing switchboard can become a limitation as more electrical equipment is added to a property. If your Spotswood home still has ceramic fuses, outdated circuit protection or insufficient switchboard capacity, we can assess whether an upgrade is required.

Modern switchboards can incorporate individual RCBO protection and provide capacity for additional circuits.

A switchboard assessment is particularly worthwhile when planning:

• EV charging 
• induction cooking 
• additional air conditioning 
• major renovations 
• solar or battery systems 
• high-powered appliances 

Where required, we can also assess the consumer mains and overall electrical supply rather than simply replacing the switchboard.

Want to charge your electric vehicle at home?

RS Electrical VIC provides EV charger installation in Spotswood for Tesla, BYD, Kia, Hyundai, Polestar, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, MG and other major EV brands.

Every property is different, so we consider:

• existing switchboard capacity 
• available electrical supply 
• single or three-phase power 
• charger location 
• cable route 
• required circuit protection 
• future electrical loads 

For properties where the switchboard and garage are separated, we'll look for a practical cable route that achieves a neat finished installation.

Older homes often have far fewer power points than modern households need.

Instead of relying on power boards and extension leads, we can install additional outlets in practical locations throughout your property.

Options include:

• standard double power points 
• USB charging outlets 
• USB-C power points 
• kitchen appliance outlets 
• home-office power 
• wall-mounted TV power 
• weatherproof outdoor outlets 
• dedicated appliance circuits 

For renovated homes, careful positioning can also produce a much cleaner finished result.

Good lighting can completely change how a home or commercial space feels and functions.

We install and upgrade:

• LED downlights 
• pendant lights 
• feature lighting 
• kitchen lighting 
• exterior lighting 
• security lights 
• sensor lighting 
• garage lighting 

If you're renovating, we can help plan a lighting layout around the room rather than simply replacing existing fittings in the same locations.
