New appliance?
Get it connected properly.
Electrical connections for fixed ovens, electric cooktops, induction cooktops and replacement appliances across homes and properties in South East Queensland.
The appliance is new. The electrical setup might not be.
Replacing an oven or cooktop is not always simply a matter of putting the new appliance into the same space.
The new appliance may have different electrical requirements, so the existing connection, circuit and surrounding electrical setup may need to be reviewed before the installation is completed.
Old out. New in.
Even when the new oven or cooktop fits the same physical space, its electrical requirements may not be identical to the appliance being replaced.
Providing the make and model of the new appliance helps clarify what needs to be considered before the electrical connection is completed.
When might you need an electrician?
Appliance electrical work can come up during a simple replacement, full kitchen renovation or when the new appliance needs something different from the existing setup.

Not sure what is required
Send the appliance details and explain what is being changed.
Appliance not getting power?
If a fixed oven or cooktop is not operating, JP Electrical can investigate whether the issue appears to involve the electrical supply, circuit or connection.
Internal appliance faults may require an appropriate appliance repair technician, depending on what the electrical investigation identifies.
Moving to induction?
Changing the type of cooktop can also change the electrical requirements behind the appliance.
Before the new cooktop is connected, the existing electrical supply can be reviewed against the requirements of the appliance being installed.
Sometimes the job goes beyond the appliance.
If the existing electrical supply does not suit the new oven or cooktop, additional electrical work may be needed before the connection can be completed.
Where the requirement involves the circuit or switchboard, JP Electrical can discuss that work as part of the overall electrical job.
