Older homes
Original switchboards, ceramic fuses, no safety switches and too few power points. A switchboard upgrade, LED lighting and extra points make an older home safer and easier to live in.
LENNELEC is a local, owner-operated electrician, so the person you call is the person who does the work. Joel looks after family homes, older houses, new builds, holiday homes and rentals, from small jobs to whole-house upgrades.
Customers mention the same things in their reviews: easy to arrange, on time, prompt, polite and reliable. Every job is tested before Joel leaves, and electrical installation work comes with a Certificate of Electrical Safety.
New builds
Builder base packages rarely cover everything. Once you have the keys, add downlights, ceiling fans, extra power and USB points, data points and an EV charger in the garage.
Holiday homes and rentals
Security lighting and smart controls for a house that sits empty for part of the year, and smoke alarms that are tested and in date.

great communication and easy to arrange the job with. Very prompt, polite and professional and very happy with the work performed. I’ll be asking Joel to do electrical work for me again.
Quoted word for word from LENNELEC on Service.com.au, where Joel is rated 5.0 from 7 reviews.
What electrical work do you do for homes?
Switchboard upgrades, LED and feature lighting, security lighting, power points and USB outlets, ceiling fans, smoke alarms, EV chargers, TV antennas and points, data cabling, home automation, fault finding and repairs. For split system air conditioning, Joel does the electrical side and arranges the install with a licensed air conditioning partner.
Can I combine several small jobs in one visit?
Yes, and it usually makes sense to. List everything when you request a quote, such as an extra power point, a new light and a smoke alarm, so Joel can plan it as one visit.
Do I need a licensed electrician for work at home?
Yes. In Victoria, fixed electrical work such as power points, lights, switchboards and wiring must be done by a licensed electrician, who issues a Certificate of Electrical Safety for the work. DIY electrical work is illegal and unsafe.
Is the wiring in my older home safe?
Warning signs include ceramic fuses, no safety switches, flickering lights, warm power points and frequent tripping. Joel can check the switchboard and wiring and tell you what, if anything, needs doing.
Do you add extras to new homes after handover?
Yes. Once you have the keys, Joel can add the lights, fans, power points, data points and EV charger the builder didn’t include. If the home is still under the builder’s warranty, check your contract first.
Which areas do you cover for home electrical work?
The whole Mornington Peninsula from Somerville to Portsea, plus Frankston, Carrum Downs and south-east Melbourne out to Pakenham. The full suburb list is on the home page.
