Professional Shed Electrical Wiring in Adelaide
Wiring a shed, garage or workshop requires more than running an extension lead from the house. Any detached structure that needs permanent power must have its own sub-board (distribution board) fed by a dedicated cable from the main switchboard. This cable needs to be rated for the load you plan to run, protected by the correct circuit breakers and safety switches, and either buried underground in conduit or run overhead on a catenary wire, depending on the distance and layout of your property.
We wire sheds and outbuildings of all sizes across Adelaide and the Adelaide Hills, from small garden sheds needing a few lights and power points through to large workshops on rural properties requiring three-phase power for welders, compressors and machinery. Every installation includes a sub-board with its own RCDs (safety switches), individual circuits for lighting and power, and weatherproof fittings where the structure is not fully sealed. For Adelaide Hills rural properties with longer cable runs, we size the cable correctly to prevent voltage drop, which can damage equipment and cause flickering lights.
If your shed will double as a home office, hobby room or entertaining space, we can also install heating and cooling circuits, dedicated data points, and exterior lighting around the entrance. We handle the full job from start to finish, including any trenching required for the underground cable between the house and the shed. Our team works with you to plan the layout so power points, lights and switches are exactly where you need them for the way you actually use the space.

FAQs
Shed Electrical Wiring Questions
Common questions about shed electrical wiring in Adelaide.
Does my shed need its own sub-board?
Yes. Under Australian wiring standards, any detached structure that has permanent electrical wiring needs its own sub-board (distribution board) with dedicated circuit breakers and safety switches. This protects the shed circuits independently from your house wiring and makes it easy to isolate power to the shed when needed.
How do you run the cable from the house to the shed?
The most common method is an underground cable run in conduit, buried at the depth required by Australian standards. For shorter distances or where trenching is not practical, we can run the cable overhead on a catenary wire. We assess your property and recommend the best approach during the quoting visit.
Can you install three-phase power in my shed?
Yes, provided your property has a three-phase supply from the street. Three-phase power is common on larger Adelaide Hills rural properties and is needed for heavy workshop equipment such as welders, lathes, large compressors and dust extractors. We install the three-phase sub-board and circuits in the shed and connect them to your main supply.
How many power points does a shed or workshop need?
It depends on how you use the space. A basic garden shed might only need two or three power points. A serious workshop typically needs 6 to 10, positioned around the workbench, tool wall and any fixed machinery. We plan the layout with you so every power point is in a useful location and nothing relies on double adapters or power boards.
Can you wire a shed on a rural property in the Adelaide Hills?
Absolutely. We wire sheds on rural properties throughout the Adelaide Hills and Mount Barker region regularly. Longer cable runs are common on these properties, and we size the cable and conduit correctly to handle the distance without voltage drop issues. We also handle any council or SA Power Networks requirements that apply to your installation.
Do you provide free quotes for shed wiring?
Yes. We visit your property, inspect the shed location and the main switchboard, measure the cable run distance, and provide a clear written quote with no obligation. We can also advise on the best sub-board size and circuit layout based on how you plan to use the shed.
