What We Look After

Switchboards & Safety

Your switchboard is the heart of your electrical system. If it’s old, overloaded, or lacking safety switches, it’s a problem waiting to happen. We upgrade switchboards, install RCDs and safety switches, and make sure your home or business meets current Australian safety standards.

We also carry out smoke alarm checks to ensure your detectors are compliant, correctly positioned, and working when it counts.

If your property needs more power — whether you’re adding high-draw appliances, electrifying your home, or reducing reliance on gas — we carry out mains upgrades to increase your available supply and future-proof your setup.

Lighting — Inside & Out

From a single blown fitting to a full LED upgrade across a commercial space, we handle it. Garden lighting, feature lighting, sensor lights, indoor fittings — if it needs power, we take care of it.

We also install LED strip lighting for kitchens, bathrooms, entertainment areas, and commercial fit-outs. Whether it’s under-cabinet accent lighting or a full architectural feature, we’ll get it looking exactly right.

Induction Cooktop Upgrades

Ready to move away from gas? With the help of our skilled plumbers, we can replace your existing gas cooktop with a modern induction cooktop — handling both the electrical and plumbing side of the job from start to finish. It’s a cleaner, safer, and more energy-efficient way to cook, and we make the switchover straightforward.

Why Electrical Maintenance Is Worth Taking Seriously

An electrical system that hasn’t been looked at in years is an unknown quantity. Wiring degrades. Safety switches fail silently. Old switchboards weren’t designed for the load modern homes put on them.

A routine check costs very little. Catching a faulty safety switch, deteriorating wiring, or an overloaded circuit before it becomes a fire or a power outage? That’s the difference between a small job and a serious problem.

We recommend an annual check for most homes — more frequently for older properties or high-use commercial premises. We’ll tell you honestly what needs attention and what doesn’t.

Local Electricians. Real Expertise.

O’Brien Electrical & Plumbing Rowville has been looking after Melbourne homes and businesses for over a decade. We’re local, fully licensed, we don’t cut corners, and we treat every job – big or small – like it matters. Because it does.

We’re also more than just electricians. Solar, plumbing, heating and cooling – if your property needs it, we’ve probably already done it for someone nearby.

FAQs:

If your switchboard is older than 20 years, or doesn’t have safety switches installed, it almost certainly needs attention. We’ll inspect it and give you an honest assessment.

Yes. For urgent electrical issues outside business hours, call our after-hours line on 0418 277 200. We’ll get someone to you as quickly as possible.

This depends on a variety of factors, like the age of the home etc for residential properties. If you’re a landlord, a rental compliance check is a legal requirement. Commercial properties with high electrical loads may need more frequent servicing.

An RCD (Residual Current Device) – also called a safety switch – cuts power in milliseconds if a dangerous fault is detected. It’s one of the most important safety features in any home. Under Victorian regulations, they’re required in all new installations and rental properties. If you don’t have one, call us.

Absolutely. We install dedicated home EV charging circuits and charging units. We’ll recommend the right setup for your vehicle and property.

Yes. Our team handles both sides of the job – electrical and plumbing – so you only need to make one call. We’ll cap the gas, install the new cooktop, and ensure everything is connected safely and up to code.

Yes. We carry out smoke alarm compliance checks for homeowners, landlords, and property managers. We’ll test your detectors, check placement, and advise on any replacements needed to meet Victorian requirements.
