Private House Electrical Work

Electrics in a private house are usually more involved than in an apartment: more floor area, longer cable runs, and higher total load from heating, pump equipment, and outbuildings. The electrician visits the site, assesses the load, and proposes a layout for the specific house and property.

Electrical work on site — example of the work

What's included

  • Inspecting the house and property, calculating the total electrical load
  • Designing a circuit layout that accounts for every building on the property
  • Chasing and running cable over longer distances, inside and outside the house
  • Assembling a panel with headroom for the number of breakers and RCDs needed
  • Installing outlets, switches, and light points inside and outside
  • Connecting appliances and other heavy loads
  • Load-testing the network before handover

When you need this

  • A new house is being built and the electrics need to be laid out from scratch
  • The property has an outbuilding, bathhouse, garage, or summer kitchen that needs power
  • The panel isn't sized for the current load — heating, pump equipment, heavy appliances
  • The house's wiring is old, partly surface-mounted, or wasn't sized for the load
  • Cable needs to be run a long distance — from the panel to a separate building

The final cost of a house's electrics depends on floor area, the length of cable runs, and the number of buildings on the property — confirmed after inspection.

Electrics in a private house differ from an apartment mainly in scale: more area to wire, longer cable runs, and a load that comes not just from lighting and outlets but from heating, pump equipment, and appliances in outbuildings.

A house panel is usually assembled with headroom for extra breakers — in case a bathhouse, garage, or new circuit gets added later. Cable to standalone buildings can be run overhead or underground, with the method chosen based on distance and the layout of the property.

If the house's wiring is old, or has been replaced piecemeal over the years, it makes sense to start with an inspection and assessment — to see where a partial repair is enough and where it makes more sense to recalculate the whole layout from scratch.

Completed work carries a warranty of up to 3 years.

Frequently asked questions

How is house electrics different from apartment electrics?

A house usually has more floor area and total load, longer cable runs — from the panel to a bathhouse, garage, or outbuilding — and the panel is assembled with headroom for extra breakers. That means the layout is designed for the whole property, not just the main building.

Does every building need its own panel?

Not always — if a building is small and its load is light, it can be fed as a separate circuit from the main panel. For a bathhouse or garage with heavier equipment, a separate distribution panel is sometimes more practical. This is discussed during the site visit.

How is the load calculated if there's heating and pump equipment?

The total load of all the major consumers — the boiler, the pump, high-power appliances — is added up, and the incoming cable size and breaker ratings are chosen to match.

Can cable be run underground to a separate building?

Yes, an underground run can be used to reach a standalone building — the method is discussed during the site visit, depending on distance and how the buildings are laid out.

Do you work outside Astana if the house isn't within the city?
