Electrical Services in Kuala Lumpur & Selangor

Electrical problems are more than an inconvenience — a tripping circuit, a dead socket or an overloaded distribution board can point to issues that get worse over time. For homeowners in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor, electrical work needs to be done properly: correct wiring, the right breaker sizes, neat concealed or surface runs, and thorough testing. Renovix provides electrical services for landed homes, condos, offices and shops across the Klang Valley, from new wiring and rewiring to lighting installation and fault diagnosis. Homeowners in the Klang Valley typically call in an electrician for one of three things: a new or additional point, a rewire where the existing wiring has aged, or a fault traced back to its source.

We cover the practical range of electrical jobs around a home or business: power points, switches, lighting, ceiling fans, water heaters, aircond supply points, DB box upgrades and troubleshooting. We also coordinate closely with ceiling work, renovation and painting, so lighting points and wiring runs are planned before finishes go on. Electrical installation work in Malaysia is subject to regulatory requirements — we can advise on what applies to your specific installation.

Quick Answers

Common questions about Electrical

Direct answers to the questions customers and search engines ask most often about this service.

What does electrical work typically cost in KL & Selangor?

Power socket addition starts from RM80 per point, lighting point from RM60, ceiling fan installation from RM80 install only and RM150 with casing, DB box single-phase from RM400 and 3-phase from RM800, full house wiring from RM5,000 for 1-storey terrace and RM8,000 for 2-storey in KL & Selangor. Concealed wiring costs 30–50% more than exposed. Final price depends on number of points, distance, wall type and phase.

What does electrical installation include?

It includes cable laying, socket and switch points, light fitting installation, fan hook and balancing, DB box replacement with MCB/RCCB and testing. Light fittings, fans and appliances themselves are excluded if client-supplied. Major hacking, plaster and TNB application are quoted separately.

How long does full house wiring take?

Full house wiring takes 5–10 days for terrace houses — 1-storey RM5k–8k and 2-storey RM8k–12k including DB box and points. Partial rewiring for kitchen or living takes 1–3 days. Socket or light point addition is 30–60 minutes per point. Timeline depends on concealed vs exposed and condo management hours.

Do I need approval for electrical work in condo?

Yes, most condominiums require management approval for DB upgrades, additional points affecting common lines and any hacking. Electrical work should follow Suruhanjaya Tenaga requirements and be done by competent personnel. We advise what to check with your management before starting.

Service Overview

Wiring, Lighting & Electrical Repair Services

Safe electrical work is methodical work: correct planning, proper cable sizing, secure connections and testing at the end. That is how we approach every job.

For installation work, we plan the circuit layout first — which points are needed, where they belong, and what load they will carry. Whether it is concealed wiring chased into walls during a renovation, or surface wiring where concealed runs are not practical, the work is done neatly with proper containment and labelled circuits. We install sockets, switches, light points and fittings, and upgrade DB boxes and breakers where the existing setup is outdated or overloaded.

For faults, we work from the symptom back to the cause: tripping breakers, dead sockets, flickering lights and appliances that do not work. We test the circuit, identify the fault, and explain what we found before carrying out the repair. For appliance wiring such as water heaters, ceiling fans and aircond supply points, we check the existing circuit capacity and advise on what the installation needs.

FAQs

Electrical — Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers to the questions customers ask us most about this service.

How much does electrical wiring cost in Malaysia?

Electrical additions are priced per point — sockets, switches, lights and fans each carry their own starting rate — so a single extra socket is a small, transparent number rather than an open-ended labour bill. Whole-house rewiring and DB box work price the other way: per property and per board, where run lengths and routing dominate, and concealed chasing costs 30–50% more than exposed trunking for that reason. Anything touching the supply itself, such as a board upgrade with a TNB application, is scoped and priced separately from the wiring inside the home.

When should a house be rewired?

Signs include frequent tripping, warm sockets, outdated wiring materials, and a DB box that cannot handle modern loads. If you are planning a major renovation, it is often the most cost-effective time to rewire.

How do I know if my DB box needs upgrading?

If the box is full, uses outdated protection, or breakers trip regularly when appliances run, an upgrade may be needed. We can inspect the box and advise on what is appropriate for your home.

Can additional power points be added to an existing room?

In most cases yes. We assess the circuit load and the neatest way to run the wiring, then add the points without overloading the circuit.

What should I do when a breaker keeps tripping?

Avoid repeatedly resetting a breaker that keeps tripping — it is protecting a circuit with a problem. Turn off the affected appliances and have the circuit checked to identify the cause.

Does my water heater or aircond need special wiring?

Higher-load appliances generally need a dedicated circuit with correctly sized cable and protection. We check the existing circuit capacity and advise on what the installation requires.

Is concealed wiring better than surface wiring?

Concealed wiring looks cleaner and is the common choice during renovation, but it must be planned before walls and ceilings are finished. Surface wiring is a practical alternative where chasing is not possible.
