Electrical services in Poole
A tripping fuse board or a socket that has stopped working needs a qualified electrician, and MX2 Electrical covers homes, rentals and business premises right across Poole.
“With over 20 years in the trade behind us, we are a fully qualified, NAPIT registered team covering Poole and the Dorset area, domestic and commercial. We turn up when we say we will, explain what needs doing before we do it, and leave the place as we found it.”
Electrical services in Poole
- Whether the power keeps tripping, the fuse board looks old or you are adding a charger, MX2 Electrical covers the job across Poole for homes and businesses.
- Fault finding traces the circuit causing it and puts the cause right, so the power stays on afterwards.
- An EICR tests every circuit and gives you a written report with any faults graded by how urgent they are.
- A consumer unit replacement fits modern RCD protection, which cuts the power when a circuit leaks to earth.
Electrical work in Poole houses and flats
- Poole runs from Georgian houses on the Quay to 1970s estates and harbour side apartment blocks, and each puts the wiring somewhere different.
- Rebuilt in Georgian style in the eighteenth century and a conservation area since 1975, so cable runs keep to existing chases.
- The estate was built out from 1963 in the south and 1973 in the north, so boards one street apart can be decades apart.
- Edwardian and interwar houses were wired for far fewer circuits, and the 1970s estate off Winston Avenue is a different age of installation again.

What happens on the day
We arrive at the booked time, look at the board and the circuits your job touches, and put the price in writing before any work starts.
- 01
We look at the installation first
We check the fuse board, the meter position and the circuits involved, then set out what the work needs and what it costs.
- 02
We carry out the work
Circuits come off one at a time and go back on as each is finished, so the rest of the property stays live.
- 03
We test and write it up
Every circuit we touch is tested, the readings are recorded, and you get the certificate or report for the work.

Common questions from Poole customers
The questions Poole homeowners, landlords and businesses ask before booking.
How much does an EICR cost in Poole?+
EICR and electrical testing starts at £110. The price follows the number of circuits on the board, so a two bed flat costs less to test than a large detached house on the harbour side. You get a written report grading any faults found.
How much is a new fuse board?+
Consumer unit and fuse board replacement starts at £500. The final price depends on the number of circuits and whether the existing wiring passes its tests, which we check before changing anything. The new board is tested and the readings written up.
Why does my RCD keep tripping?+
Something on one of the circuits is leaking to earth, and fault finding traces which one. Electrical fault finding and repairs are charged from £70 an hour, most of it spent splitting the circuits down to find the cause. Once found, you get the repair price before we carry it out.
How much does an EV charger cost to install in Poole?+
EV charger installation starts at £300. The distance from the fuse board to where the car parks decides most of the price, along with whether the supply carries the extra load. A long run down a driveway costs more than a charger fitted beside the board.
Do you work in flats and apartment blocks?+
Yes, including the apartment blocks around Canford Cliffs and Sandbanks in BH13. We check for a shared supply and the communal meter position before pricing the work. Landlords and managing agents get the same written report as a homeowner.
Do you do electrical work for businesses in Poole?+
Yes. Commercial electrical installations and industrial projects and maintenance are both from £70 an hour. PAT testing, which is the checking and labelling of plug in appliances, is from £70 an hour as well.
How much does it cost to rewire a house?+
House rewiring is charged from £70 an hour rather than a flat price, because the size of the house and the state of the existing wiring set the time on site. A Georgian house in the Old Town takes longer than a 1970s estate house where the cable runs are easier to hide.
When can I book an electrician in Poole?+
The booking line takes Poole jobs at any hour, including nights and weekends. We then confirm a visit time with you and what the work will cost.
