Power Point Installation

Running out of power points? We add double GPOs, USB outlets, kitchen splashback points, and outdoor weatherproof sockets across the Mornington Peninsula.

Older Peninsula homes were built for a simpler time — fewer appliances, no home offices, no EV chargers. Today, the average household needs far more power points than most older properties provide. Whether you're retrofitting a Frankston weatherboard, fitting out a home office in Mornington, or adding an alfresco kitchen point in Sorrento, Impulse Electrical installs power points cleanly and correctly — no dodgy extension cords needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to add a power point on the Mornington Peninsula?

A standard double power point (GPO) added to an existing circuit costs $150–$300 depending on cable run length and wall type. USB combination outlets are similar. Outdoor weatherproof points generally cost $200–$400 due to the waterproof fittings and conduit required. We provide free on-site quotes.

What's the difference between a single and double power point — which should I get?

A single GPO has one socket; a double has two. We almost always recommend doubles — the cost difference is minimal (usually $20–$40 extra) and you get twice the capacity. In kitchens, home offices, and entertainment areas, doubles are essential. For outdoor or garage locations, a single weatherproof point is often sufficient.

Can you install weatherproof outdoor power points?

Yes — outdoor weatherproof GPOs are rated IP56 or higher and are perfect for alfresco entertaining areas, garden sheds, pools, and garages on the Peninsula. These must be installed by a licensed electrician and connected through a safety switch (RCD). We install them regularly for Peninsula homes with outdoor kitchen setups and garden lighting.
