Types of Power Point We Install

Our team at H.Irwin Electrical installs a wide range of power points, including single power outlets, to meet the different needs of homes and businesses across Adelaide.

We help clients select and fit the most practical and safe outlets, depending on usage, style preferences, and compliance with Australian electrical standards.

Standard GPOs for Everyday Use

Most clients choose standard power points, also called General Power Outlets or GPOs, for their reliability and versatility.

We offer single, double, and multi-gang outlets to suit anything from light use in hallways to high-demand workspaces.

Our electricians always ensure outlets are positioned for convenience and tested for safety. 

Single Power USB & Charging Solutions

Built-in USB power points are popular for charging devices without bulky adaptors in kitchens, bedrooms, or study areas.

We supply and install double power units with both USB Type-A and Type-C ports alongside regular sockets, making them suitable for a range of devices.

Our team keeps up with the latest options to make sure your installation supports both fast charging and emerging tech.

Weatherproof PowerPoint and Outdoor Electrical Outlet

We install weatherproof powerpoint for outdoor kitchens, patio areas, garages, and wet zones. These points are rated for exposure to rain, dust, and temperature changes, reducing safety risks for users and appliances.

H.Irwin Electrical uses quality enclosures with IP ratings that stand up to the demands of Adelaide’s diverse outdoor environments, always complying with safety standards.

Specialty PowerPoint Outlets and Safety Features

For larger appliances or workshop equipment, our team specialises in installing power through high-amperage or dedicated circuit power points, fully compliant with Australian wiring rules.

We also fit tamper-resistant and child-safe options in family homes, childcare centres, or schools to prevent accidents.

Surge-protected and smart power point installations are available for added protection and modern convenience.

Every Day Power Point Installation Challenges We Resolve

PowerPoint installations in Adelaide come with a set of unique challenges, especially in older homes and custom builds.

Our licensed electrician at H.Irwin Electrical sees firsthand the issues that can arise, from outdated wiring to the latest compliance standards. 

Old or Incompatible Wiring in Properties

Many Adelaide homes feature wiring that simply wasn’t designed for today’s electrical loads. Brittle insulation, thin cables, or a missing earth wire are all problems that come up.

Before we install any new power points, our team carefully inspects the wiring and upgrades sections if needed. This ensures each installation is not just functional but safe for long-term use.

Overloaded Circuits and Demand Issues

Older or heavily used switchboards in local homes and businesses often approach their capacity limits.

Installing an electrical outlet without assessing the load can easily tip them into overload, risking safety and causing nuisance tripping.

We always map out your circuits and carry out proper calculations before any new power point installation, keeping you safe from surprise outages.

Structural Barriers and Access Limitations

Adelaide’s double-brick and stone walls present real challenges for PowerPoint installation.

These solid walls mean extra care is needed and generally require specialist tools for neat, compliant work.

We’re experienced at working in these conditions and find practical pathways for wiring, even in tightly constructed homes and buildings.

Compliance, Placement, and Regulations

Placement is critical, not just for convenience but for safety and compliance with Australian Standards.

Non-compliant installations can cause issues with insurance and put the household members at risk.

As part of our professional services, our electricians factor in every regulation and practical use case, ensuring your new power points are both accessible and fully compliant.

 

If you want advice or a safe, fully certified power point installation from a local team, reach out to H.Irwin Electrical. We’re ready to help, wherever you’re based in Adelaide.

Frequently Asked Questions

The prices for power point installation in Adelaide typically ranges between $150 and $300 per outlet.

Costs can vary depending on factors like the type of powerpoint (standard, double, or USB-integrated), the accessibility of the location, and whether any additional wiring or safety upgrades are needed.

For instance, older homes may need extra work to bring existing wiring up to current standards, which can impact the final quote.

At H.Irwin Electrical, we always provide clear and upfront estimates before starting any job, ensuring there are no unexpected surprises.

If you’re considering upgrading your outlets or need advice on the best solution for your space, get in touch for a friendly, obligation-free chat.

In Adelaide, as with the rest of Australia, it’s illegal and unsafe to install, repair or even replace a powerpoint yourself.

Only a licensed electrician can legally perform this work, as electrical systems must meet strict Australian standards for safety and compliance.

This is particularly important in Adelaide’s older suburbs, where existing wiring may not be up to current codes, making proper installation even more crucial.

H.Irwin Electrical ensures every new or upgraded power point is installed to these standards and provides certification after completion, giving you complete peace of mind.

If you need a licensed emergency electrician for your home or office, reach out to us for honest advice and efficient, compliant service every time.

For most straightforward repairs in Adelaide, a licensed electrician can usually complete the job within the same day if you book early, especially for standard single or double outlets.

More complex upgrades, like adding USB-integrated or weatherproof powerpoints, may take a little longer, particularly if additional wiring or safety checks are required.

The age and condition of your property’s wiring can influence timing, as older homes in Adelaide’s inner suburbs might need extra care to ensure compliance with current standards.

At H.Irwin Electrical, we aim to provide prompt, efficient service and can often accommodate urgent requests for both residential and commercial clients.

If you need quick turnaround or want to discuss timing for your specific needs, reach out to our team, and we’ll happily give you a timeframe.

Absolutely, in most Adelaide homes and businesses, it’s possible to upgrade existing power points to double or USB-integrated outlets, as long as your current wiring is in good condition.

During an upgrade, we check the age and safety of your wiring because older buildings in some Adelaide suburbs may need minor updates to meet today’s electrical standards.

The cost for these upgrades usually falls within the same range as standard installations, but it can vary if extra work is needed to bring older wiring up to code or if you require special types like weatherproof or smart outlets.

At H.Irwin Electrical, we always carry out a proper assessment before any upgrade and can recommend the best options to suit your needs and budget.

If you’re considering a modern outlet upgrade for your Adelaide property or want advice on specific installation requirements, such as exhaust fan installations, get in touch, and we’ll provide straightforward, local guidance.
