Home → Mornington Peninsula → Frankston
Frankston has a huge number of homes built in the 60s, 70s and 80s — and a lot of them are still running on the original wiring and ceramic fuse boards. Impulse Electrical specialises in bringing Frankston homes up to current safety standards.
We've worked across Frankston, Frankston South and Frankston North for over a decade. The older housing stock here means we see ageing wiring, overloaded circuits and outdated switchboards on a regular basis. We know exactly what to look for and how to fix it properly — no band-aids, no shortcuts.

Frankston is one of the fastest-growing areas on the Peninsula, with older suburbs close to the beach being renovated and updated constantly. We work alongside builders and renovators as well as direct with homeowners — handling everything from full rewires on knockdown-rebuilds to simple power point additions.
Switchboard upgrades are particularly important in Frankston. Homes with ceramic fuse boards lack the safety protection of modern circuit breakers and RCDs, and can't handle the load of air conditioning, EV chargers and modern appliances. We upgrade them safely, issue a Certificate of Electrical Safety, and ensure everything is compliant.
We also service the Nepean Highway commercial corridor — retail fitouts, office electrical, test and tag for local businesses.
