How Much Does Oven Installation Cost in Perth? (2026 Prices)

An oven install is quick when the circuit is right and a small project when it isn't. Most 600 mm electric ovens draw 2.5–3.6 kW and sit happily on the existing 20 A oven circuit; 90 cm ovens and double ovens draw 5–7 kW and usually need a 32 A circuit, and a lot of Perth kitchens from the 1990s and 2000s ran the oven and the cooktop off one circuit, which often can't carry a new oven and an induction cooktop together. This guide has the 2026 prices for each situation, what's done, and where gas fits.

• Most 600 mm single electric ovens (2.5–3.6 kW) run on the existing 20 A oven circuit with 4 mm² cable. Some come with a 10 A plug and don't need hard-wiring at all — check the model.
• 90 cm ovens and double ovens (5–7 kW) generally need a 32 A circuit with 6 mm² cable, and some pyrolytic self-cleaning models need more than an old circuit gives — check the installation sheet; the maximum current is printed on it.
• Oven and cooktop on one circuit. Common in older Perth kitchens. The Wiring Rules allow a shared cooking circuit only where the combined load fits, and an induction cooktop plus a pyrolytic oven never does. That's when both get their own circuit.
• The isolating switch. Cooking appliances need a switch to isolate them, within reach and not behind the appliance. Ovens built into a tower often have theirs in the adjacent cupboard.

Send us the model number before you buy and we'll tell you in a minute whether it's a $220 job or a $650 one.

1. Check the circuit, the isolator and the board against the oven's installation sheet.
2. Isolate and disconnect the old oven, lift it out; the opening is checked against the new oven's dimensions (the cabinet maker or you handle changes).
3. Run a new circuit if needed — cable from the switchboard to the kitchen, an RCBO at the board, an isolator in reach.
4. Connect the oven to the terminal block with the correct cable size, secure it in the cabinet, ventilation gaps as the manufacturer requires.
5. Test and certify. Earth continuity, insulation resistance, polarity, RCD trip, then the oven run through its functions. Your Electrical Safety Certificate follows.

A like-for-like connection takes about an hour; a new circuit two to four hours depending on the run to the board.

Gas is a licensed gas fitter's work in WA, with its own compliance certificate. We do the electrical side: the 10 A point for the ignition, clock and light, and any circuit work if you're swapping from gas to electric. Book both trades for the same morning and the kitchen is back in service by lunch.

• Licensed contractor only. A hard-wired oven must be connected by a licensed electrical contractor (our licence is EC15449). Retail delivery crews can't legally connect one unless they hold that licence.
• Circuit sized to the appliance under AS/NZS 3000:2018 and the manufacturer's sheet, with RCD protection on the circuit for new or altered work.
• Isolating switch for cooking appliances, in reach and accessible.
• Ventilation and clearances as the manufacturer specifies — pyrolytic ovens in particular.
• Electrical Safety Certificate for the work, within 28 days.

• The circuit. Reusing an adequate one is the cheap job; a new 32 A run is the main cost.
• Distance to the switchboard and the route — two-storey kitchens and slab floors are longer runs.
• The isolator. Missing or in the wrong place adds a switch.
• The board. Spare way, extension or upgrade.
• Wall ovens need two people and a cabinet that fits.
• Doing the cooktop at the same time shares the visit and the board work.

Send us the oven model, a photo of the existing oven connection or isolator, and one of the switchboard — that's usually enough for a fixed price the same day.

• Fixed price before we start, $0 call-out fee.
• Replacement connections often same or next day.
• Circuit, isolator, connection, testing and the Electrical Safety Certificate included.
• Licensed electrical contractor EC15449, 300+ five-star Google reviews. See our oven and hotplate installation page.

We connect ovens across the Perth metro — Joondalup, Morley, Victoria Park, Willetton, Rockingham, Ellenbrook and everywhere between.

• Check the circuit before you buy. A 600 mm oven that fits the existing circuit is a $220 connection; a pyrolytic double is a new circuit.
• Buy a plug-in model if a suitable power point is in the cabinet and the oven is offered that way.
• Do the cooktop at the same time if it's due.
• Have the old oven out and the cabinet ready — or ask us to remove it; either way, no waiting on the day.
• Time it with the renovation so the new circuit goes in while the walls are open.
