Electrician in Kensington — We are Based Here
Titanium Electrical ‘s office is at 35 Stubbs Street, Kensington VIC 3031. We are not a Melbourne-wide contractor servicing Kensington from another suburb. We work, operate, and are registered in Kensington. Our electricians know the suburb’s streets, its property types, and its commercial strips because they pass through them every day.
Kensington (postcode 3031) sits within the City of Melbourne local government area, bounded by Racecourse Road to the north, the Maribyrnong River to the west, Dynon Road to the south, and Moonee Ponds Creek to the east. The suburb has two distinct residential characters: the older streets of Victorian terraces and Edwardian cottages west of Macaulay Road, and the more recent Kensington Banks development east of Bellair Street, built on the former Melbourne livestock saleyards site that closed in 1984.
Our electricians carry out residential repairs, commercial maintenance, and 24/7 emergency response across both areas. Being based in the suburb means most standard jobs are attended the same day, and emergency callouts typically reach the job site faster than any other Kensington electrician.

Emergency Electrician in Kensington
Titanium Electrical operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for emergency callouts in Kensington and the surrounding inner-west suburbs. With our office on Stubbs Street in Kensington itself, we reach most emergency jobs in the suburb quickly. Calls connect to our team directly — not an answering service or call centre.
Contact our emergency electrician immediately for any of the following faults. Do not reset protective devices or continue using the affected circuit before a licensed electrician diagnoses the fault:

- Burning smell or scorch marks at any power point, switch, or switchboard panel
- Complete or partial loss of power to the property
- Sparking from an outlet, fitting, or appliance connection point
- Loss of power to critical systems — refrigeration, medical equipment, or security

Residential Electrician in Kensington
Kensington’s older residential streets contain a high proportion of Victorian-era terraces and Edwardian cottages that have not had electrical systems updated since the original build. These properties frequently require switchboard upgrades, RCD installation, and rewiring of degraded single-skin cable before modern appliances, air conditioning, or EV chargers can be safely added.
The Kensington Banks precinct, built progressively since the mid-1990s, has different requirements — newer wiring but often outdated switchboards for the increased loads of a decade later, along with growing demand for EV charger installation as the area’s owner-occupier base upgrades vehicles.
24/7 Services for You!
Switchboard Upgrades and Safety Switch Installation
Under Energy Safe Victoria guidelines and AS/NZS 3000 (Australian Wiring Rules), residual current devices (RCDs) should protect all general power and lighting circuits. Ceramic fuse boards — still common in Kensington’s pre-war homes — provide no electrocution protection. We replace outdated boards with modern switchboards meeting current Australian Standards, and carry out RCD installation and testing for existing boards where appropriate.
- Ceramic fuse board replacement with a compliant modern switchboard
- RCD installation and testing on power and lighting circuits
- Three-phase switchboard upgrades for high-load properties
- Switchboard capacity assessment before EV charger or air conditioning installation
- Pre-sale and pre-purchase electrical compliance inspections with written reports
Fault Finding and Electrical Repairs
Electrical faults in Kensington’s older homes are frequently caused by connections that have degraded over decades — loose terminations, oxidised wiring, failing circuit breakers, and insulation breakdown in original cable. Our electricians use professional diagnostic testing equipment to identify the root cause on the first visit and carry out the repair in the same call where parts are available on the vehicle.
- Tripping circuit breakers and safety switches
- Dead or intermittent power points
- Flickering or dimming lights under load
- Partial power loss to individual rooms or circuits
- Hot, discoloured, or sparking outlets — treated as urgent
Lighting, Power points, and General Installations
- LED downlight installation and halogen replacement
- Outdoor and garden lighting
- Power point and USB outlet installation
- Ceiling fan installation and wiring
- EV charger installation with switchboard capacity assessment
- Smoke detector installation — 240V hardwired, rental compliance testing
- AV and home theatre system electrical installation
- Data and NBN cabling
- Surge protection installation
Rental Property Electrical Compliance
Under the Residential Tenancies Act 1997 (Victoria), landlords are required to ensure electrical installations in rental properties are maintained in a safe condition. Titanium Electrical carries out residential electrical compliance inspections for landlords and property managers in Kensington, covering switchboard condition, RCD testing, visual wiring assessment, and smoke detector compliance. A written report is provided after every inspection.
