St Albans has a broad mix of established family homes, renovated properties, units, townhouses, rental properties and busy commercial areas. With many properties having been extended or upgraded over the years, electrical systems can vary considerably from one home to another.

Many established St Albans properties were built when household electricity requirements were much lower than they are today.

Over the years, homes may have had extensions, additional air conditioners, renovated kitchens and other electrical work completed at different times.

If you've purchased or are renovating an established property, we can assess:

• switchboard condition 
• ceramic fuses 
• safety-switch protection 
• consumer mains 
• earthing 
• existing wiring 
• overloaded circuits 
• ageing power points and switches 
• available electrical capacity 

An older home doesn't automatically require rewiring. We'll assess the existing installation and recommend work based on its actual condition.

Still have an older switchboard or ceramic fuses?

RS Electrical VIC provides professional switchboard upgrades in St Albans, replacing outdated equipment with modern circuit protection where required.

A switchboard upgrade may be worth considering if your property has:

• ceramic fuses 
• inadequate safety-switch protection 
• limited space for additional circuits 
• frequently tripping circuits 
• ageing electrical equipment 
• increased electrical demand 

It's also important to assess the switchboard before installing significant new electrical loads such as EV chargers, induction cooktops or additional air conditioning.

Where necessary, we'll assess the consumer mains and electrical supply as part of the overall upgrade.

Electrical faults can be frustrating and sometimes indicate a problem that shouldn't be ignored.

RS Electrical VIC provides electrical fault finding in St Albans for problems including:

• safety switches repeatedly tripping 
• circuit breakers tripping 
• partial loss of power 
• power points not working 
• lighting faults 
• damaged switches 
• intermittent electrical problems 
• appliance circuits tripping 
• unexplained electrical issues 

Own a Tesla, BYD or another electric vehicle?

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

Before installation, we assess:

• existing switchboard 
• electrical supply capacity 
• household electrical loads 
• single or three-phase supply 
• proposed charger location 
• cable route 
• circuit protection requirements 

This assessment can be particularly important in established homes where the original electrical system wasn't designed with EV charging in mind.

Where required, we can also discuss switchboard upgrades, consumer mains upgrades and load-management options.

Older homes often have fewer electrical outlets than modern households require.

We install:

• standard power points 
• double GPOs 
• USB outlets 
• USB-C power points 
• bedside outlets 
• kitchen power points 
• TV outlets 
• home-office power 
• garage power 
• outdoor weatherproof outlets 
• dedicated appliance circuits 

Additional outlets can reduce reliance on extension leads and power boards while making rooms more practical.
