Oven Installation in Melbourne's South Eastern Suburbs

Oven Installation in Melbourne's South Eastern Suburbs

An electric oven needs a hardwired connection to a correctly sized dedicated circuit, not a plug into a standard power point. Getting this wrong means a tripped circuit on first use at best, a fire risk at worst, and a voided warranty in either case.

What's Included in Oven Installation

Old Oven Disconnection and Removal

The existing oven is safely isolated, disconnected and removed. The existing circuit is checked before the new oven is connected.

Circuit Assessment and Upgrade Where Required

The existing oven circuit is assessed for correct sizing. Most electric ovens require a dedicated 20A or 32A circuit. If the existing circuit is undersized or shared, a new dedicated circuit is installed from the switchboard.

New Oven Hardwired Connection

The new oven is hardwired to the circuit using the correct connection method, a terminal block connection in the terminal bay, not a plug-in lead.

Full Function Test Before Completion

All oven functions tested before completion including elements, grill, fan, timer and internal light where applicable.

Certificate of Electrical Safety Issued

Issued on completion of every oven installation.

Our Oven Installation Process

Old oven removed, circuit checked, new oven connected and fully tested in a single visit for most properties across Narre Warren, Berwick, Cranbourne, Frankston and surrounding suburbs. Certificate issued on the day.

Frequently Asked Questions About Oven Installation

Does an electric oven need its own dedicated circuit?

Yes, in most cases. Electric ovens draw 15 to 25 amps depending on size. Running on a shared circuit, particularly one shared with a cooktop, is a safety risk and may not meet the manufacturer's installation requirements.

Can you install both freestanding and built-in ovens?

Yes. Freestanding ovens are installed with the same hardwired connection as built-in models. The circuit requirement is the same regardless of oven type.

Is old oven removal included in the installation?

Yes. Old oven removal is included as standard. Kenny isolates and removes the existing unit before installing the new one.

Will an incorrect installation void my oven warranty?

Yes. Most manufacturers require a licensed electrical installation with a Certificate of Electrical Safety. An incorrect installation, such as a wrong circuit size or a plug-in connection, will void the warranty.
