Puchong has 62 businesses listed under residential electrician, covering everything from single-storey terraces in Bandar Puteri to newer condos around IOI Boulevard. The work itself ranges from small jobs, like fixing a tripping circuit breaker or replacing a ceiling fan, to bigger projects such as rewiring an older double-storey house, upgrading a consumer unit (DB box) to handle aircon or EV charging load, or wiring a full renovation before plastering starts.
What residential electrical work usually involves
Common jobs in this category include socket and switch installation, lighting circuits, ceiling fan and downlight wiring, aircon point wiring, DB box upgrades, earthing and trip switch (RCCB) checks, and troubleshooting for tripped circuits or flickering lights. Anyone doing a renovation or extension will also need conduit and wiring laid before wall finishing, plus a final load check so the house doesn't overload when everything is switched on at once.
What to check before you hire
Look for a Suruhanjaya Tenaga (ST) licensed electrician, since this is a legal requirement for household wiring work in Malaysia, not just a nice-to-have. Ask for a written quote that separates labour and materials, confirm whether they handle the TNB or JKR inspection paperwork if the job involves DB upgrades, and check if they give any warranty on their workmanship. For older Puchong houses, ask specifically whether they've dealt with aluminium or undersized wiring before, since that changes the scope of the job.
How we score electricians in this category
