Service Overview

Power points are the primary interface between your home's electrical grid and your daily appliances. Over time, wall outlets experience physical wear. Internal contact plates can loosen, leading to electrical arcing, heat buildup, and fire hazards. Cracked faceplates or loose fixtures can expose live wiring, creating a severe shock hazard. Jeanes Power & Electrical provides professional power point repairs, replacements, and new circuit runs across Carrum Downs, Frankston, and the Mornington Peninsula. I replace standard, outdated single sockets with modern double outlets, install slimline designer fittings, and integrate smart fast-charging USB ports (combining USB-A and USB-C). For high-draw appliances like ovens, induction cooktops, dryers, or workshop tools, I run dedicated circuits to ensure your standard home power runs are not overloaded.

Our Step-by-Step Process

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Under Australian electrical safety regulations, all fixed electrical work (including replacing a power point plate) must be carried out by a licensed electrician. DIY electrical work is illegal and dangerous.

USB power points feature built-in transformers that charge phones, tablets, and smartwatches directly from a USB cable. They free up the main sockets and deliver optimal charging power.

A standard domestic double outlet is rated at 10 Amps total (about 2400 Watts). Plug boards and adapters can easily exceed this limit if running high-draw appliances like heaters or kettles, tripping the breaker.

Yes. While routing cables inside brick or concrete walls is more complex, I use neat surface-mounted conduit blocks or wall-chasing techniques to add outlets in solid wall spaces.
