Before installation
Check the appliance and the home together
Cooktop requirements vary by model. The rating plate and manufacturer instructions determine the electrical design, while the existing switchboard and wiring in your Gladesville home determine what it can safely support.
Switchboard capacity
We check the available supply, circuit protection and space before recommending the final scope.
Existing circuit
An old cooktop circuit is not automatically suitable. Cable size, protection, condition and installation method need checking.
Isolation
The appliance must have suitable isolation arranged for the model and installation in accordance with applicable requirements.
Benchtop and cabinetry
The opening, clearances and ventilation must match the manufacturer's installation instructions.
Gas removal
If a gas cooktop is being replaced, disconnection and capping must be completed by a licensed gasfitter.
Gladesville homes
Moving to induction in a Gladesville house or apartment
Gladesville has a mix of older freestanding homes, renovated houses and apartment buildings. Each can raise different electrical questions when a gas or older electric cooktop is replaced with induction.
Older houses
Original switchboards and wiring were not always designed for a modern induction cooktop. We check the board, protection and existing circuit before quoting the connection.
Apartments and strata
In units, the available supply, where the meter and switchboard sit, and the cable route can all affect the scope. Some work may also need strata approval, so check your building's requirements early.
Kitchen renovations
If the cooktop is part of a larger renovation, the circuit can be roughed in early and the cooktop connected once the benchtop is installed.
We complete induction cooktop electrical work in Gladesville and nearby suburbs including Hunters Hill, Huntleys Point, Putney, Tennyson Point, Boronia Park and Ryde.
Electrical installation scope
What Russo Electrical can complete in Gladesville
The final scope is based on the cooktop specifications and what is found during the assessment.
- Switchboard and supply-capacity assessment
- Dedicated circuit and correctly selected protection where required
- Suitable appliance isolation
- Disconnection and making safe of redundant electrical wiring
- Cooktop electrical connection after physical fitting
- Testing and required electrical compliance documentation
Board work
If the switchboard needs work
We will explain it before the cooktop is connected. Depending on the installation, the next step may involve a switchboard upgrade or investigation through our switchboard support service.
The cabinetmaker or benchtop installer normally handles the cutout and physical fit. We can coordinate timing with them.

FAQs
Gladesville induction installation FAQs
Do you install induction cooktops in Gladesville apartments?
Yes. In apartments we check the unit's supply, switchboard location and cable route before confirming the scope. Some buildings also require strata approval for electrical work, so check your by-laws or with your strata manager early.
Can the new cooktop use my existing circuit?
Possibly, but it must be checked against the new appliance requirements. Cable size, protection, isolation, condition and installation method all matter.
Does an induction cooktop need three-phase power?
Not every model does. The answer depends on the appliance specifications, permitted configuration and the home's supply. Send us the exact model before purchase where possible.
Who cuts and fits the benchtop?
The kitchen installer, cabinetmaker or benchtop contractor normally completes the cutout and physical fitting. Russo Electrical handles the fixed electrical work and cooktop connection.
Can you disconnect the old gas cooktop?
Gas disconnection and capping must be completed by a licensed gasfitter. We can coordinate the electrical work around that part of the job.
Is the electrical work covered by a warranty?
Eligible Russo Electrical work is covered under our workmanship warranty. Check the warranty page for the current terms.
