In Victoria, power points must be installed by a licensed electrician. Impulse Electrical installs double GPOs, USB combination outlets, kitchen splashback points, and weatherproof outdoor sockets across the Mornington Peninsula. Every new point is safety-switch (RCD) protected and installed by an A Grade electrician (A53308), with free quotes and a Certificate of Electrical Safety.
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.
⚠ Important: Power point work must be done by a licensed electrician
• DIY power point installation is illegal in Victoria — it's a serious safety risk
• Unlicensed wiring voids your home insurance in most cases
• Impulse Electrical is A Grade licensed (A53308) with full public liability cover
• All new power points are safety-switch (RCD) protected as required by law
A standard double power point (GPO) added to an existing circuit costs contact us for a quote depending on cable run length and wall type. USB combination outlets are similar. Outdoor weatherproof points generally cost contact us for a quote due to the waterproof fittings and conduit required. We provide free on-site quotes.
A single GPO has one socket; a double has two. We almost always recommend doubles — the cost difference is minimal (usually contact us for a quote 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.
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.

Yes. We install USB-A and USB-C combination power points that let you charge phones and tablets without a plug adaptor — popular in kitchens, bedrooms, and home offices. We also install stainless flush-mount splashback points for kitchens and floor-mounted outlets for open-plan living areas across the Mornington Peninsula.
More than most older homes provide. Between computers, monitors, chargers, printers, and networking gear, a modern home office quickly outgrows a single outlet — and daisy-chained extension cords are a hazard. We install home office multi-point circuit upgrades so every device has a proper outlet. We'll assess your setup and provide a free quote.
Yes. Garages and workshops often need 15A or 20A heavy-duty outlets for welders, compressors, and workshop machinery, rather than standard 10A points. We install these along with IP56-rated weatherproof outdoor points for sheds and alfresco areas, all connected through a safety switch and certified with a Certificate of Electrical Safety.
