LG induction cooktops bring the brand's connected-home thinking into the kitchen. Whatever model you've chosen, we install it on a properly sized circuit and test it before handing over.

LG is a Korean electronics and appliance company, and in many homes the cooktop joins an LG fridge, washer or TV. Some LG appliances work with the ThinQ app, and buyers who already use it often want the kitchen to fit in. That's a convenience feature; the electrical installation is the same disciplined job it is for any induction cooktop.
Induction is efficient and quick, but it's a big load. The cooktop needs its own circuit from the switchboard, with cable, breaker and RCD protection chosen to match the rating stated in the LG installation manual. Older circuits, or kitchens that were gas until now, rarely have that ready to go.
Blue Link Electrical is a licensed electrician based in Hurlstone Park. We install LG cooktops across the Inner West and Sydney, wiring appliances our customers have supplied. We're not connected to LG, and any internal appliance issue is a matter for LG's service network.
Compare the size, the number of zones and the total power across the models you're considering. More zones and more width usually mean a higher rating, which affects the circuit we install. The cut-out dimensions also vary, so check them against your existing benchtop if this is a replacement.
If you plan to use app features, think about Wi-Fi in the kitchen. If you're running new cable for the cooktop anyway, it can be a good time to add a data point or improve coverage. Our smart home wiring guide has ideas.
From the LG manual and rating plate, with cable suited to the run length.
RCD protection on the new circuit, usually an RCBO on a modern board.
Old ceramic fuses and full boards often need attention first. See ceramic fuse replacement.
Roof space, subfloor or wall cavity access between the board and the kitchen.
Gas capped by a licensed gasfitter; cut-outs by a benchtop installer.
Assess. We review the LG model's manual and inspect your switchboard and the cable route, then provide a written quote.
Circuit work. New protection at the board and a new cable to the kitchen, terminated at a connection point that lets the cooktop be isolated later.
Fit-off. We connect the cooktop at its terminal block according to the manual, fit it in the bench and run each zone to confirm it heats.
Certify. Testing to AS/NZS 3000 and a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work. Our cooktop and oven installation in Petersham shows the kind of kitchen work involved.
Your supply or board may need upgrading for an all-electric kitchen.
Check the breaker and safety switch. Our guide induction cooktop has no power explains next steps.
Usually Wi-Fi or account related, not an electrical fault.
Only if the existing circuit is sized and protected for the new cooktop. We check the cable and breaker against the LG manual.
If a suitable circuit exists, the connection is fairly quick. A new circuit takes longer depending on access. We'll give you a time estimate with the quote.
Only non-magnetic ones. Test with a magnet: if it sticks to the base, the pan will work.
No, that's for a licensed gasfitter. We can coordinate timing so the electrical work follows straight after.
