3 phase outlets and machine power
Outlets and dedicated circuits for welders, compressors, CNC machines, hoists and other 3 phase equipment, matched to each machine’s rating.
Factories, warehouses and workshops run on equipment, and equipment needs the right power in the right place. LENNELEC does industrial electrical work across south-east Melbourne and the Mornington Peninsula, from a single 3 phase outlet for a new compressor to fitting out a whole factory unit.
Downtime costs money, so the work is planned around production where it can be, and switchboards are labelled so the next fault is quick to trace. Once the site is running, regular testing keeps it that way: test and tag, safety switch testing and thermal imaging of the boards.
How a factory job runs
- Site walk and a list of the equipment
- Supply and switchboard capacity checked
- Machine circuits, 3 phase outlets and power drops installed
- High-bay lighting and data where needed
- Testing, labelling and a Certificate of Electrical Safety
Factory fit-outs
A new factory or warehouse unit set up from scratch: switchboard, power drops to the benches, 3 phase outlets, high-bay LED lighting, and data to the office.
Switchboards
New and upgraded industrial switchboards and distribution boards, with room for the next machine and every circuit labelled.
Thermal imaging
A thermal camera scan of switchboards and connections under load shows hot spots, such as loose terminals and overloaded circuits, before they cause a breakdown.
Test and tag
Power tools, extension leads and portable machines tested and tagged, with the results recorded, so the workshop stays on top of electrical safety.
RCD testing
Safety switches checked with a meter to confirm they trip fast enough to protect the people using the equipment.

Joel was excellent he is highly recommended
Quoted word for word from LENNELEC on Service.com.au, where Joel is rated 5.0 from 7 reviews.
Can you install 3 phase outlets for machinery?
Yes. Joel installs 3 phase outlets and dedicated circuits for welders, compressors, CNC machines and other equipment, sized to the machine’s rating and what the switchboard can supply.
What if my site only has single phase power?
Some 3 phase equipment can’t run on a single phase supply. Joel can check what the site has and talk through what an upgrade would involve, which also goes through the local electricity distributor.
What does thermal imaging of a switchboard show?
Heat. Loose connections, overloaded circuits and failing parts run hotter than they should, and a thermal camera picks them up while everything is running. Finding them early means a planned repair instead of a breakdown.
How often does workshop equipment need test and tag?
It depends on the environment. The Australian Standard for in-service testing, AS/NZS 3760, sets intervals by how hard equipment is used, and factories and workshops are tested more often than offices. Joel can suggest a schedule for your site.
Can you fit out a new factory or warehouse unit?
Yes. From the switchboard to power drops, 3 phase outlets, high-bay LED lighting and data for the office, Joel can fit out the whole unit, working with the builder if there is one.
Which industrial areas do you cover?
Carrum Downs, Seaford, Dandenong South, Lyndhurst, Hastings and the industrial estates across south-east Melbourne and the Mornington Peninsula.
