MEA member 23598 · QLD licence 92489
Nuvolt Electrical is a commercial and industrial electrician for the Sunshine Coast, a licensed Queensland electrical contractor (Lic# 92489) with more than 100 commercial projects completed. We fit out shops, cafes and offices, upgrade switchboards and bring three phase supply to sheds and workshops, design and install commercial lighting, look after test and tag, emergency lighting and the test records behind them, and put EV chargers and solar on business premises. Work is scoped around your trading hours so the business keeps running, and every job finishes with the certificates your insurer, landlord or auditor will ask for.
Shops, Offices, Sheds & Body Corporates
Most of our commercial work is for small and midsized businesses on the Coast: the tenancy that needs fitting out, the shed that needs three phase, the building that needs its compliance in order. Every sector has its own rules, and we work to them.
Shops & cafes
Fitouts, kitchen circuits, lighting and the compliance paperwork a lease and a council inspection ask for.
Offices & professional suites
Power and data to every desk, lighting that suits screens, and work staged after hours so the team keeps working.
Sheds, workshops & light industrial
Three phase supply, machine connections, subboards and high bay lighting at Kunda Park, Caloundra West, Nambour and the northern Brisbane industrial belt.
Body corporates & property managers
Common area lighting, emergency and exit lights, smoke alarms and safety switches in each unit, and EV charging in car parks.
How we work with agencies →Warehouses & industrial
Drives, motors, containment runs and power distribution, with shutdowns planned around production.
Schools, medical & community
Compliance heavy sites where the testing records matter as much as the install.
Farms & rural properties
Shed and pump supply, long underground runs and solar sized to the load on the property.
Commercial & Industrial Electrical Services
One licensed team across design, supply, installation and ongoing maintenance, so you deal with us end to end rather than coordinating a chain of subcontractors.
Power, lighting, data and switchboard work for a new tenancy or a refit, staged around your opening date.
New boards, subboards, upgrades and circuit additions when the tenancy has outgrown what it was built with.

Power for Sheds, Kitchens & Car Parks
Three phase supply is the request we hear most from workshops at Kunda Park and Caloundra West, commercial kitchens and anyone putting in a 22kW EV charger. Where the street already has three phase we run the submains, the board and the circuits; where it does not, we handle the supply application with Energex and the metering that goes with it.
For businesses looking at rooftop solar and batteries at the same time, the three phase systems we install on larger homes scale to light commercial sites too. See GoodWe 29.9kW three phase, Fox ESS 29.9kW three phase or commercial solar for the 100kW and above end.
Three phase chargers we supply and install
Fox ESS 22kW EV Charger (Three Phase)
Three phase, up to 22kW. Fixed install price online.
Sungrow 22kW EV Charger (Three Phase)
Three phase, up to 22kW. Fixed install price online.
Already own chargers, or need a networked multibay setup? We install any brand on its own compliant circuit.
The Demand Charge Solar Can't Reach
On a business demand tariff, part of the power bill has nothing to do with how much energy you use. It is set by your single highest half hour in a peak window each month, charged per kVA. On Energex's large business demand tariff, 7200, that window is weekday evenings, 5pm to 8pm, when the sun is down or going down. Solar on its own cannot touch it. Stored energy can.
The federal battery discount works differently for a business too: a system over 100 kWh of nominal capacity is not eligible at all. So a commercial battery is sized around the demand charge, not the rebate, and we work it out from your interval data and your tariff before we recommend anything.
Commercial battery storage, 64 to 261 kWh per cabinet
Kstar BluePulse outdoor battery cabinets for warehouses, factories and large sites. Cut the evening demand charge solar cannot reach, or add storage to the solar you already have.
- 64 to 261 kWh per outdoor cabinet
- 20 to 125 kW per hybrid inverter
- 8,000+ cycles rated cell life (Kstar figure)
- 10 years Kstar product warranty

Commercial Electrician Questions
Straight answers on fitouts, three phase, compliance, maintenance and how a job starts, from the contractor doing the work.
Which parts of the Sunshine Coast do you cover for commercial work?
The whole Coast, from our workshop in Nambour and our second base in the new Aura precinct at Caloundra South. Fitouts and maintenance work concentrate around Maroochydore, Kunda Park, Kawana, Caloundra, Nambour, Noosa and Eumundi, and we run the Bruce Highway to Caboolture and the northern Brisbane industrial areas for booked project work.
How does a commercial job start? Do you quote from photos or come out?
Photos first. For a single circuit, a charger or a switchboard change, photos of the board and the space are usually enough for a written estimate, confirmed before anything is ordered: we send you a secure link to upload them, and the free estimate comes back within 1 business day of receiving them. For a fitout or anything with more than one trade involved, we tell you if something can't be confirmed from photos, and a paid visit at our standard call-out rate may be needed.
Can you work around our trading hours so we don't have to close?
Yes. We scope the work around your trading hours and plan any power shutdowns in advance, so your business keeps running while we work. For retail, hospitality and offices that means after hours or staged work where it suits, agreed with you before we start.
Do you do three phase power for sheds, workshops and kitchens?
Yes. Three phase circuits, isolators and machine connections, subboards and the supply application with Energex where the site does not have three phase yet. It is the most common request we get from sheds at Kunda Park and Caloundra West and from commercial kitchens.
Can you install EV chargers for a business?
Yes. Single and three phase chargers for staff and customer parking, with networked, OCPP compatible units that support access control and usage reporting where you need them. We also install a charger you have already bought, on its own protected circuit.
Are you licensed and insured for commercial electrical work?
Yes. Nuvolt is a licensed Queensland electrical contractor (Lic# 92489) and carries full public liability and workers' compensation insurance. Every job is completed to the relevant AS/NZS standards, with certificates of testing and compliance supplied for your records and audits.
Do you provide test and tag and electrical compliance certificates?
Yes. We handle test and tag and RCD testing to AS/NZS 3760, installation, repairs and six monthly testing of emergency and exit lighting to AS/NZS 2293, and switchboard safety. You get the test records, log book entries and electrical certificates your business needs to stay audit ready.
Do you offer ongoing maintenance contracts?
Yes. We set up scheduled maintenance that keeps your lighting, switchboards and emergency lighting running and catches faults before they turn into outages, including thermal imaging of boards to find hot joints early. Planned attention instead of waiting for something to fail at the worst possible time.
Do you work with body corporates and property managers?
Yes. Common area lighting, emergency and exit lights, smoke alarms and safety switches in each unit, and EV charging in basement car parks with the metering and approvals sorted first. We can look after several tenancies in one visit and keep the records in one place.
Will I get a fixed price, or do costs blow out part way through?
You get a detailed, upfront quote with no hidden extras. If we find something during the job that genuinely needs attention, we flag it and price it before doing the work, never after.
