Lighting, power points, ceiling fans, switchboard and safety switch upgrades, smoke alarms, rewiring and fault finding – we look after every part of a home’s electrical system. Strathfield is known for large interwar and Federation houses on generous blocks, many of them inside heritage conservation areas, alongside a growing apartment stock around the station. Big old houses with big modern loads is the combination that generates most of our residential work here.
The Strathfield Plaza precinct, the shops along the Boulevarde and Albert Road, and the offices and education tenancies around the station make up the commercial side. We handle fit-outs, three-phase supply, data cabling, and emergency and exit lighting scheduled around trading and teaching hours. We cover fit-outs, three-phase supply, data cabling, emergency and exit lighting, and maintenance planned around your trading hours.
A large house running ducted air conditioning, a pool, multiple bathrooms and a granny flat on a switchboard installed decades ago is the single most common cause of a Strathfield callout. Boards overheat, mains run hot and circuits trip under load, usually on the hottest day of the year.
At Olympic Electrical, we are proud to be the electricians Strathfield families, strata committees and business owners trust. Every job is handled by fully licensed tradespeople with years of experience behind them and a standard of work we stand by.
Whether it is a straightforward installation, a switchboard upgrade, power out to a shed or studio, or an emergency electrician at short notice, we are equipped for it. We are more than just electricians – we are the local electrician experts across the Inner West, for every job big and small.
We are just a call away – wherever you are in Strathfield, from the Boulevarde and Albert Road through to Strathfield Plaza, Strathfield Station, Strathfield South, Redmyre Road and the streets around Airey Park, we get an electrician to you fast.
Big older houses here carry original wiring never sized for ducted air conditioning, multiple bathrooms and a modern kitchen. We test each circuit, upgrade the board and rewire the runs that actually fail rather than the whole house.
Much of the older housing sits inside conservation areas where anything visible from the street matters. Internal rewiring is generally fine. We plan conduit, meter box and antenna work to stay out of view and flag approvals early.
Second storeys, rear extensions, pools and granny flats are constant here. Old boards rarely have spare ways or RCD protection, so we plan the supply upgrade and circuit layout before the walls close up.
Newer blocks near Strathfield Station bring the usual strata questions. We establish whether a fault sits inside your lot or on common property, put it in writing, and work with the building manager on access.
All our electricians are fully licensed, insured, and continuously trained to stay current with industry standards. We bring years of hands-on experience to every project, making sure your electrical work is done safely and to the highest possible standard.

The classic Strathfield job is a substantial interwar or Federation home that has had a modern kitchen, ducted air conditioning, a pool and often a granny flat added over the decades, all of it still fed by a switchboard and a supply sized for a very different household. Boards overheat, circuits trip under load, and the fix is upstream of whatever appliance gets blamed.
Every job we complete in Strathfield is tested before we leave, and NSW requires a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work where the work calls for one. You receive a copy for your records, which matters on a large renovation or when you sell. Where a switchboard is replaced or altered, AS/NZS 3000 requires RCD protection on the final subcircuits, so the whole house comes up to standard rather than just the new work.
We quote the job, not the hour. An electrician attends, looks at the actual board, the actual supply and the actual scope, then gives you a fixed price in writing before any work starts. On a large Strathfield home a supply and switchboard upgrade is a significant job, and you should know exactly what it costs and why before you commit rather than watching a meter run.
Whether it is a switchboard upgrade, new lighting or a full rewire at home, or a fit-out, three-phase supply and planned maintenance for your business, our licensed electricians handle it end to end. You get a fixed price agreed before we start, a tidy site when we leave, and a lifetime labour guarantee on every job across Strathfield and the Inner West.
The questions we hear most from Strathfield homeowners, apartment residents and strata committees. If yours is not covered here, call us on 02 8999 3691.
Usually yes. We work 7am to 5:30pm Monday to Friday and 7am to 2pm Saturday and run several licensed electricians across the Inner West. Call 02 8999 3691 early and we will tell you honestly what time we can be there. A board that is overheating or a circuit that keeps tripping under load goes to the front of the queue.
We quote the job rather than run an hourly meter. An electrician attends, inspects the board and the supply, then gives you a fixed price in writing covering labour, materials and certification. On a large home a supply and switchboard upgrade is a significant piece of work, and you should know the full figure before committing rather than discovering it on the invoice.
Almost always load. A large Strathfield home running ducted air conditioning, a pool pump, an induction cooktop and multiple bathrooms is asking far more of the board and the incoming mains than they were built for, and the failure shows up on the hottest day. We measure the actual load, then quote either a board upgrade, a supply upgrade, or both, rather than replacing a breaker and waiting for it to happen again.
No, but they change how it is done. Much of the older Strathfield housing sits inside conservation areas, and the controls are aimed at what is visible from the street. Internal rewiring and switchboard upgrades are maintenance and generally unaffected. Anything that changes a street-facing elevation, such as relocating a meter box or adding external conduit, should be checked with Council first, and we flag that before starting.
Before the walls close up, and ideally before the plans are finalised. Old boards in Strathfield homes rarely have spare ways or RCD protection, so the extension often triggers a board upgrade regardless. Getting the supply, board capacity and circuit layout sorted at design stage is far cheaper than discovering at rough-in that the existing supply cannot carry the new load.
Yes, and the large-home load question applies here more than most suburbs. We check the incoming supply and spare board capacity before quoting, because a charger on top of ducted air conditioning and a pool can be the load that tips the house over. Since May 2023 a charger circuit cannot rely on an older Type AC safety switch, so a Type A or Type B device is fitted and certified.
Its own. A secondary dwelling or workshop needs a submain sized for the real load, buried at the correct depth with proper mechanical protection, terminating in its own subboard with RCD protection. Pool equipment needs bonded, protected circuits. We check the main board and incoming supply have the capacity before anything is dug or poured, because that is where these jobs usually stall.
NSW requires at least one working smoke alarm on every storey of a rented home. Landlords must repair or replace a faulty alarm within two business days of being notified, hard-wired alarms must be worked on by a licensed electrician, and alarms must be replaced within ten years of manufacture. We handle installation, replacement and the certification your agent will want.
Yes, when we are already on site for a booked job. We look over the switchboard and safety switches, test smoke alarms and check visible wiring and outdoor circuits. On larger homes we also look at whether the board and mains are coping with the current load. You get a plain summary, with no obligation to book any of it.
Yes. Olympic Electrical has traded since 2017 under founder Spyro, with more than five licensed electricians, over 250 customers and 7,000 plus completed projects.
