When a household appliance fails, most people reach for an appliance repair technician. But many of the most common appliance faults — a tripping circuit, a sparking outlet, an oven that will not heat, a dishwasher that blows the safety switch — are not appliance problems. They are electrical problems. And only a licensed electrician can legally diagnose and fix them.
Titanium Electrical is a Melbourne-based appliance electrician providing electrical appliance repairs, fault diagnosis, and appliance installation for residential and commercial properties. Our Master Electricians work across all major appliance types and brands, with 24/7 availability and same-day service for most jobs in the Melbourne metropolitan area.
Unlike general appliance repair technicians, we can also handle everything that connects your appliance to the building’s electrical system — circuits, switchboards, hardwiring, and safety switches. One call covers the appliance and the electrics behind it.
An appliance electrician is a licensed electrician who specialises in the electrical side of household and commercial appliances — diagnosing electrical faults, carrying out wiring for new installations, testing safety compliance, and repairing the components that connect appliances to your building’s power supply.
This is distinct from a general appliance repair technician, who typically handles mechanical faults (a broken door seal, a worn motor bearing, a faulty thermostat). When the problem is electrical — a blown terminal block, a wiring fault, a circuit that cannot handle the load of a new appliance — an electrician is the correct tradesperson. If the issue is not immediately clear, our licensed electricians can also carry out detailed electrical fault finding to identify wiring, circuit, or appliance connection problems.
| Fault Type | Who You Need |
| Appliance blowing the safety switch | Licensed electrician — electrical fault diagnosis |
| Oven not heating but elements look fine | Licensed electrician — wiring or terminal issue |
| New oven or cooktop needs hardwiring | Licensed electrician — required by law |
| Circuit trips every time the dishwasher runs | Licensed electrician — circuit overload assessment |
| Rangehood sparking or not powering on | Licensed electrician — wiring inspection |
| Mechanical fault inside the appliance body | Appliance repair technician |
| Washing machine drum bearing worn out | Appliance repair technician |
| Fridge compressor failure | Appliance repair technician |
If you are not sure which tradesperson you need, call Titanium Electrical on (03) 9069 4649. We will diagnose the fault over the phone where possible and advise you honestly — even if the job is outside our scope.
Most appliance electrical faults fall into a small number of categories — terminal failures, wiring damage, safety switch trips, or supply issues. Our licensed electricians diagnose faults systematically, carry spare components on every vehicle, and resolve most jobs on the first visit.

No. Under Victorian electrical safety legislation, hardwired appliance installations — including electric ovens, cooktops, and dishwashers on dedicated circuits — must be carried out by a licensed electrician. Self-installation is illegal, will void your appliance warranty, and may invalidate your home insurance. Titanium Electrical handles all hardwired appliance installations across Melbourne.
A safety switch (RCD) trips when it detects current leaking to earth — meaning part of the appliance’s electrical system has broken down and is creating a shock hazard. This is most commonly a failed heating element, damaged wiring insulation, or moisture ingress into an electrical component. Do not reset the safety switch repeatedly and continue using the appliance. Call Titanium Electrical for a same-day diagnosis — this is a safety issue.
We carry a range of common components on every vehicle — heating elements for common oven models, terminal blocks, capacitors, and fuses. For less common parts, we can source them quickly and return for a second visit. We will always advise you of parts availability and lead time before you commit to the repair.
It depends on the nature of the fault and the appliance age. As a general guide: if the repair cost is under 50% of the replacement cost and the appliance is under 10 years old, repair is usually the better option. We will give you an honest assessment — we have no interest in recommending an unnecessary repair or a premature replacement.
