Swapping gas for induction needs a dedicated high-current circuit back to the switchboard, benchtop modification for the new cutout, and the gas point capped off by a licensed plumber.

We assess the cooktop requirements, switchboard capacity, circuit route, bench cutout and cabinetry clearances before setting the scope. The quote covers the dedicated circuit, connection, testing, certification and coordination required for the changeover. For board requirements, appliance selection, installation and gas-to-induction planning, see the full detail on induction cooktop installation.
On Donvale's one-acre blocks east of Springvale Road, the kitchen can be a long way from the meter box, and cable for an induction cooktop has to be sized for both its rating and the length of the run. West of Springvale Road, normal suburban blocks make the run shorter, but the switchboard still needs room for a new RCD-protected circuit.
The gas network reaches streets in Donvale. Postcode 3111 covers only Donvale and counts 307 solar battery installations since July 2025, so an evening meal on stored solar is within reach for homes with a battery. If induction joins a heat pump and reverse-cycle in a full switch off gas, the supply check goes to United Energy or AusNet Services depending on your street. At the 2021 Census, 43.5% of occupied dwellings were owned outright. A licensed gasfitter caps the old hob before the induction unit is fitted.

Luke and his team installed our solar panels over the space of 2 days. Great service arrived on time and communicated well, took away all rubbish made sure the place was left tidy and walked me through the app and next steps. Would highly reccomend!

Yes, Blackburn North, Doncaster East, Mitcham and Nunawading as well as Donvale, all covered from Boronia on the same terms.
Manningham covers Donvale, postcode 3111. The paperwork that matters is the electrical safety certificate, not a council form.
Rarely. Most cooktops need their own dedicated circuit rated for their full draw. Sharing an oven circuit is a common shortcut that causes nuisance tripping and isn't compliant.
Tell us which cooktop you are considering and what is installed now. We’ll assess the board, circuit route and cabinetry requirements, then provide a clear electrical quote. Book an assessment or call our Boronia crew to discuss the changeover.
