Electrician in Cremorne
Switchboards, EV chargers and lighting for Cremorne's mix of harbourside apartments and character houses, between the Neutral Bay shops and the water at Shell Cove.
What we actually see in Cremorne
Cremorne sits between Neutral Bay and Mosman — mostly strata apartments and semis along Military Road and Cremorne Road, with pockets of Federation and inter-war houses on the quieter streets down toward the harbour at Shell Cove and Cremorne Reserve.
A good share of our calls here are apartment sub-boards that have never been touched since the block went up — original ceramic fuses, or an early breaker board with no RCD protection at all — usually discovered only when someone wants to add an EV charger circuit or chase down a tripping problem.
Being this close to the harbour, exposed outdoor points, garden lighting and any switchboard on an external wall face the same salt-air wear Mosman does, just a little less severe the further you sit from the water. It's worth a check on anything outdoor that's more than 10–15 years old.

Cremorne questions
Who's responsible if the switchboard fails in our Cremorne apartment — us or strata?
The sub-board inside your lot and everything downstream of it is your responsibility. The meter room and the mains feeding it are the owners corporation's — that's usually where disputes over shared meter boards happen.
Does the salt air off the harbour really affect switchboards in Cremorne?
Yes, especially for anything outdoor or on an exterior wall facing the water — terminals and enclosures corrode faster than they would a few streets inland. If your board or outdoor points are original and older than about 15 years, it's worth having them checked.
Can strata refuse an EV charger for our Cremorne apartment?
Generally not on looks alone — EV charging is classified as sustainability infrastructure under NSW strata law, needing only a simple-majority vote since aesthetic-only refusals were banned from 1 July 2025. A strata install typically runs $2,500–$6,000 as a guide.
Why does my safety switch trip with nothing plugged in?
Most often a fault in the fixed wiring, or an appliance drawing current even while switched off — we test circuit by circuit to isolate it rather than swap parts and hope.
