Electricians in Vasse and Yalyalup

When you're adding to a home, the first question is usually whether the switchboard has room for the new circuit.

Vasse and Yalyalup homes

In the 2021 Census, 98.8% of occupied homes in Vasse and 99.5% in Yalyalup were separate houses. Most were lived in: only 8.8% and 7.8% of private homes were empty on Census night, below the WA figure of 10.9%. Households averaged 2.9 people in Vasse and 2.7 in Yalyalup, against 2.3 in West Busselton, and median ages were 39 and 36.

Homes with families in them tend to add things: a charger for a second car, power points in a home office, outdoor power for the patio, fans in the bedrooms. Each of those draws on the same switchboard.

Adding an EV charger, power points or air-con

A new circuit needs room on the board for another breaker and safety switch, and enough spare capacity in the supply, so ask the electrician to confirm both when they quote. For a home charger, see EV charger installation and the EV charger installation cost guide.

For extra or relocated power points, USB outlets and light switches, see power point and light switch installation cost. Grouping the jobs into one request lets them be quoted, and usually done, in one visit.

• Take a photo of the switchboard with the cover closed and mention any solar inverter or battery
• Say where the charger, power point or fan should go, and how far that is from the switchboard
• Mention ducted or split-system air-con, a pool pump or anything else that runs on its own circuit

Solar, batteries and the switchboard

Adding a battery, or changing to a hybrid inverter, involves the switchboard and Western Power's connection rules. See the solar battery cost guide, and the solar inverter replacement guide if an existing inverter has failed.

Electrician prices and call-out fees

Each job is priced once the electrician knows the scope, so these are published guides, not a quote for a Vasse home. See electrician call-out fees, electrician hourly rates in WA, power point and light switch installation cost and the switchboard upgrade cost guide. Travel can be charged outside a business's usual area, so ask whether it's included.
