New and Replacement Induction Cooktop Installations

Induction cooktops vary in electrical demand, cable requirements and connection method. We assess the appliance details and the existing electrical installation before confirming the work required.

New induction installation

Electrical connection for a selected induction cooktop where the site and appliance are suitable.

Replacement cooktops

Assessment of the existing circuit and connection before a replacement unit is installed.

Dedicated circuit assessment

We check whether the manufacturer’s requirements and expected load call for a new or altered circuit.

Switchboard capacity check

The switchboard and protective devices are assessed rather than assuming an upgrade is always needed.

Isolation and testing

Required isolation, connection and electrical testing are included within the confirmed electrical scope.

Kitchen renovation planning

Early electrical planning can help coordinate appliance location, cable routes and switchboard capacity.

What Affects Induction Cooktop Installation Cost?

The price depends on your cooktop and the electrical work needed at your home. We confirm the scope and price after reviewing your details; sending an enquiry does not book a fixed appointment.

Existing connection

A replacement with a suitable existing circuit may need less work than a new cooktop location.

Cable route and access

The distance to the switchboard and access through walls, ceilings or floors affect the work involved.

Circuit and switchboard work

If the existing setup is unsuitable, we explain any extra electrical work before you approve it.

How the Installation Works

Tell us about the appliance

Send the model details, photos and installation address.

We confirm the electrical scope

The circuit, switchboard and site conditions are assessed against the appliance requirements.

Installation and testing

Approved electrical work is completed and the new connection is tested.

Plan Your Induction Cooktop Installation

Tell us about your cooktop and what you have now. We’ll check what’s needed, then confirm the price and a time that suits. The form below is for induction cooktop installation enquiries.

What to Send Before We Quote

Send what you have. We’ll let you know if more details or a site visit are needed. Only take photos where it is safe: do not remove switchboard covers or touch wiring.

  • Cooktop brand and complete model number
  • Manufacturer electrical rating or specification sheet
  • Photo of the proposed cooktop location and cut-out

Induction Cooktop Installation FAQs

Straight answers about suitability, electrical scope and booking.

How much does induction cooktop installation cost in Melbourne?

There is no single price for every home. The model, existing circuit, cable route, access and any required switchboard work affect the quote. Send your appliance details and photos so we can assess the work and confirm the price before it starts.

Does every induction cooktop need a new circuit?

No. Requirements depend on the appliance, existing circuit and installation conditions. We assess these before confirming the scope.

Will I need a switchboard upgrade?

Not automatically. An upgrade may be recommended if the existing board, protection or available capacity is unsuitable for the proposed work.

Can you replace a gas cooktop with induction?

We can quote the electrical part of the conversion. Gas disconnection and any plumbing, benchtop or cabinetry work must be arranged separately with the appropriate trade.

Can you install the cooktop I already purchased?

Usually we can assess it. Send the full model number and installation information so we can confirm whether the appliance and site fall within our service scope.

Do induction cooktops require three-phase power?

Many residential models do not. The answer depends on the appliance rating and the property’s electrical installation, so it should be checked rather than assumed.

Which parts of Melbourne do you service?
