Frequently Asked Questions
What is 3-phase power and who needs it?
3-phase power is an electrical supply system that delivers power across three alternating currents rather than one, providing significantly greater capacity and stability. It is commonly used in commercial and industrial settings, but is also increasingly relevant for residential properties running high-demand appliances, workshops, or EV charging infrastructure.
What is involved in upgrading from single-phase to 3-phase power?
Upgrading to 3-phase power involves an assessment of the property's current electrical setup, an application to the local energy network, and installation of the appropriate wiring, switchboard and metering. A licensed electrician handles the full process, coordinating with the network provider to ensure a safe and compliant switchover.
Can a residential property be upgraded to 3-phase power?
Yes — while 3-phase power is most commonly associated with commercial and industrial properties, residential upgrades are becoming more common, particularly for homes with high-demand appliances, large air conditioning systems, solar and battery storage setups, or EV chargers. A licensed electrician can assess whether an upgrade is suitable and manage the process from start to finish.
