Quick answer

Whether an appliance needs a dedicated circuit depends on its electrical requirements, the manufacturer's instructions and the capacity of the existing installation. Provide the exact model before the work is scoped.

What to know before you book

High-demand and fixed appliances need more planning than choosing an outlet location. The nameplate or installation manual provides information needed to assess supply and protection.

The cable route between the appliance and switchboard can be a major part of the work, particularly in finished or multi-storey homes.
