RB Electrical is Russ Binnion: 15 years of domestic and commercial electrical work across Waurn Ponds, Geelong and the suburbs around them. From one dimmer switch to lighting a whole new home.
That's one of Russ's switchboard installs: a Clipsal board, installed on 27 February 2023, with a label that reads “Installed by Russ Binnion, RB Electrical” and his mobile number underneath.
If you ever need to know who did the work, it's written right there.

Domestic and commercial work
Recent work
Fittings that finish a room.
A lot of Russ's work is the lighting and power in new homes and renovations: pendants in the void, fans in the bedrooms, wall lights down the hall. These are photos from his own jobs.
Russ's regulars book him for everything from new smoke alarms to a new oven, then call him back for the next thing.
Lighting
Downlights, pendants, wall sconces and feature fittings, from a single pendant over the bench to a brass chandelier in a stairwell void.

“I highly recommend Russ for any electrical needs. He completed a range of lighting and electrical improvements at my house including dimmer switch, power point and pendant light installations, smoke detector upgrades and an ethernet cable extension. From the initial quote (and his useful suggestions) to completing the job, he was friendly and cheerful and his communication was excellent. He worked tirelessly to get the work done in the agreed timeframe and was very tidy. He even returned to troubleshoot a problematic dimmer and worked hard to get it sorted. We are delighted with the results.”

“We had Russ install our Hisense Canvas TV with a recessed box, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. He was very professional, clearly knew what he was doing, and provided expert advice on the setup and positioning. Beyond the TV install, Russ took the time to diagnose another electrical concern we had and explained everything clearly, without any pressure. The work was neat, well thought through, and done to a high standard. All in all, very happy with the service and wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.”

I've had my smoke alarms changed, new oven installed, downlights and pendants hung, new power points put in, ceiling fan, probably more. Nothing is ever an issue, and he provides great advice and fast, reliable service. Would definitely recommend!”
