Professional New Plug Points & Dedicated Circuits Service in Stellenbosch

The End of Extension-Lead Living

Our Stellenbosch electrical team install new plug points and circuits in Stellenbosch homes that have outgrown their sockets. Most older homes were wired for one plug per room — nowhere near enough for how we live now. Multiplugs and extension leads daisy-chained behind TV units and desks aren't just untidy; they overload circuits that were never designed for the load, which is why the breaker trips when the heater, kettle, and microwave run together.

Dedicated Circuits for Heavy Appliances

Ovens, stoves, geysers, air conditioners, washing machines, and heat pumps should each run on a dedicated circuit with its own breaker. If your oven shares a circuit with the kitchen plugs, or a new aircon was plugged into a wall socket, the circuit runs at its limit every day. We run new dedicated circuits from the DB board, sized for the appliance, with an isolator where required — which is also what a CoC inspection wants to see.

Neat Work, Not Surface Trunking Everywhere

Where possible we chase cables into the wall and make good, plaster-ready — not white trunking across every wall. In rentals or where chasing isn't practical, we route discreetly and tell you the options upfront. New points include modern sockets, with USB points available for bedside and desk positions.

Priced Per Point, Quoted From Photos

Plug point and circuit work is priced per point and per circuit run, so quotes are simple: WhatsApp photos of the room and your DB board to 060 985 5047 and we quote the same day. All work is certified with a CoC.

We provide fast, professional Electrician in Stellenbosch services, helping you fix new plug points & dedicated circuits issues. Stellenbosch homeowners — from heritage town-centre cottages to estate residences and student rentals — depend on prompt, professional callouts that respect older buildings and tight academic-year deadlines.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a new plug point cost?

A new plug point on an existing circuit typically costs R850 to R1,500 installed, depending on wall construction and how far the cable must run. Dedicated circuits for stoves, ovens, aircons or workshops — run from the DB board with their own breaker — typically cost R2,500 to R5,000.

When does an appliance need its own dedicated circuit?

High-draw appliances — stoves, ovens, geysers, air conditioners, heat pumps, EV chargers, and workshop machinery — should each run on a dedicated circuit sized for the load. Plugging them into shared plug circuits is why breakers trip when two things run at once, and it overheats wiring over time.

Can you add plug points without chasing open my walls?

Often, yes. Where walls cannot be chased — or you want to avoid repainting — we can route through the roof and use neat surface trunking, or position new points where cable reaches through existing conduit. We discuss the routing and finish with you before starting.

Is a CoC needed for new plug points?

Yes — any addition to your electrical installation must be done by a registered electrician and covered by a Certificate of Compliance. Every point and circuit we add is tested, earthed and certified, so your home CoC stays valid.
