Your local Thornbury electrician

We know the wiring behind Thornbury walls

Thornbury sits at the top of our Merri Creek run, ten minutes past Northcote, and it has one of the highest rooftop-solar rates of any suburb we cover.

That shapes the work: a lot of what we do here is making solar, batteries and EV charging talk to each other properly, on top of the interwar homes along Normanby Avenue that still need their original boards brought up to date.

What we're called out for in Thornbury

• Solar and EV charger tie-ins. Charger set up to draw from your array during daylight, so the car fills on your own power rather than off-peak grid.
• Battery-ready switchboards. Boards reconfigured with the isolation and metering a battery install needs, before the battery arrives.
• Safety switch and RCD upgrades. Bringing older Thornbury boards up to a compliant RCD setup — often the fastest, cheapest safety win in the house.
• Ceiling fans and cooling circuits. Fans, split-system isolators and dedicated circuits sized for a Melbourne heatwave, not a mild afternoon.
• Fault finding on solar systems. Inverter faults, export issues and boards that trip only when the sun's out — traced and fixed.

Typical Thornbury housing stock: Interwar and post-war homes, a strong solar retrofit belt, and townhouse developments off High Street.
