About Templestowe

Long-term owners, larger homes

Almost eight in ten occupied dwellings in Templestowe are separate houses and almost half are owned outright (ABS 2021).

Larger family homes often need more circuits than their original switchboard was built for, especially with EV charging, air conditioning or a renovated kitchen.

77.6% Separate houses
18.6% Townhouses, terraces & semi-detached
3.7% Flats & apartments
47.0% Owned outright

FAQ

FAQs

Can my switchboard handle an EV charger and air conditioning?

We check the board and supply first. Sometimes an upgrade is needed before adding both.

Can you light a deck or outdoor entertaining area?

Yes. We install outdoor-rated lighting and weatherproof power for decks and outdoor areas.

What is involved in installing a home EV charger?

We check switchboard capacity and supply, then run a dedicated circuit to a wall charger with its own isolation.
